Office menu v2

[sapero]

latest version link

This is converted version from Aurora forum, with small addition that allowed me to handle three different menus: system, window and context menu.
In this example the system menu and window menu are styled.

I have added four properties to main window:
"WindowMenu" - holds pointer to COfficeMenuBase class with window menu attached
"SystemMenu" - same, for system menu
"ContextMenu" - same, for context menu
"CurrentMenu" - currently active menu (window menu by default).

CurrentMenu switching is done internally, you need only to initialize properties - see in sub main()

Please update your includes before compiling - two fixed gdiplus headers are in "include update" subfolder.

todo's:
Menu bitmaps are still not correctly handled.
Some items from system menu (minimize, maximize and close) are not resized (no message received). I think I need to delete and insert these items to get it working.


EDIT: in main.eba, please find line with PostQuitMessage, and replace (whole line) with

Code Select Expand

$ifndef USE_EBASIC_WINDOW
PostQuitMessage(0)
$endif
Please also replace WM_CONTEXTMENU with WM_RBUTTONUP, or at least forward this message to default handler, because the system menu may not appear when clicking on window caption.

I am running a complete new install on a new computer.
I am missing windowssdk.inc - where should I look to get this file?

On the Ionic Wind homepage in downloads section, or click the link my sig and choose rapidshare or sendspace.
If you choose rapidshare, you'll give me a thankyou-point for your download. For 10k points I can become one month of premium account for free.

I have attached second (really it is the third) release. Fixed system menu, added context menu. Added also code for the context menu handler to change active menu (sub DlgProc, WM_RBUTTONUP).

Major change in HandleMessage method - none from WM_NC* messages is blocking. Added handler for WM_UNINITMENUPOPUP to detect when the system menu is closing.
All items from system menu are resized now - a 'remove and insert item' was neccesary.
Bitmaps are now supported - by handle, or one based index.
Added not working Detach method I think nobody will need to detach styles, so this method could be removed. Or?

Hi sapero.

In which step of using rapidshare can one give a thankyou point ?
I tried redownload the paks but did not see any additional options that lead to give credit to the uploader.

Quote from faq: You get a RapidPoint for each download, provided that the file is bigger than 5 megabyte and the user has not generated more than 3 RapidPoints in the last hour.

I still can not get this to compile on a new laptop with vista.
It has issues with the local include files.

Larry, what errors do you have?

0x4D525453 must be inside gdiplus module. If you debug it in real debugger, you'll see"return to gdiplus" in call-stack window.
Did you updated included two gdi+ headers ? You need to replace two files in include directory.
You can also update the code in main.eba by adding "+0" to three variables:

Code Select Expand

GdipLoadImageFromStream(stream +0, &img)
GdipCreateHBITMAPFromBitmap(img +0, &bitmap, 0)
GdipDisposeImage(img +0)

[sapero]

I have finished it.
If an item is disabled, its bitmap will be grayed. The way you assign image index to menu item has changed - image (by index) is extracted and assigned to menu item as checkmarks.
Please remember to call SetActiveMenu before displaying context menu. It may be automated only if you ensure different menu item id's for context menu and the window menu.

Downloaded the latest - it compiles and runs.
I do get the warnings at compile:
