Thanks for answer. Can you explain me in details what is Shell_NotifyIcon() and how use it.

Creating icon in system tray I can do now. My current problem is to put that icon to system tray, when Windows 2000(for example) starts.

See the MSDN article Q179365.

Hide the main window. In MFC this will do the trick:
AfxGetMainWnd()->ShowWindow(SW_HIDE)
Of course, you won't be able to interact with the app while it's hidden unless you provide a means of making it visible or allowing it do display a context menu. A common convention here is do add an icon to the system tray while the app is hidden.

I believe you can take off the WS_EX_APPWINDOW extended style from the window.

I am not sure if I am doing something wrong, but it doesnt seem to like me using a vector in my managed c++ app.

I'm trying to implement a floating window, like a tooltip, to follow the mouse to show display info on our data.
I'm now using the tooltip, and it works ok, not great, but ok; the view gets invalidated, and forces a redraw. ( I was using a simple CWnd before to simulate this, and it was ok also)
Are there other alternatives for that kind of floating window ?
Thanks
Max.

If you create a special window class with the style CS_SAVEBITS (among others), you shouldn't have a problem with redraw. See AfxRegisterClass or ::RegisterClass in the MSDN.

Does anyone know the limits to the length of a (Win2K/NT/XP) username and domain name? Are these #defined anywhere? Thanks,

I want to display a .jpg file in a Dialog. How to do that??? Is there any Control available for that.
|
|
|
|
|
there are probably ten different articles on this site that can help you do that. try looking in the "Bitmap and Palettes" section.
-c
|
|
|
|
|
If you are using VC++ 7, then you can use CImage class. If you don't but have the latest Platform SDK, then can use the Image class of the new GDI+ library. If neither, then download the CXImage class from code project.
All this classes with allow you to access to an HBITMAP that you can use it anywhere.

With an MFC Menu, is it possible to not just disable but *hide* menu items without having to delete them from the menu?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, it's possible, but not recommended, it confuses the user that sometimes a menu item is visible, and sometimes it's not.
look for :
BOOL CMenu::RemoveMenu( UINT nPosition, UINT nFlags );

Thank you but RemoveMenu() deletes the item from the menu. I just want to hide it so that I can easily restore it when a different document is shown.
|
|
|
|
|
you need to remove it to hide it.!

I am just brainstorming here because I have never tried this but what if you use two different menu bars, one with all the menu options and the other with certain menus hidden? I don't even know if it can be done, but you can try it.
Max is right though, if you want to hide it you have to remove it.

OnKeyDown does not seem to be getting called in this case at all. Any ideas what needs to be done in order for the keyboard accelerators to start working and keyboard inputs to get recorded?
Thanks in advance!!!
LRESULT TestPage::OnKeyDown(UINT uMsg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam, BOOL& bHandled)
{
MSG msg;
HACCEL hAccel;
BOOL bRet;
if (!m_hWnd)
return FALSE;
hAccel = ::LoadAccelerators( _Module.m_hInstResource, MAKEINTRESOURCE(Accel));
if (m_hAccel == NULL)
return FALSE;
while ((bRet = ::GetMessage(&msg, m_hWnd, NULL, NULL)) != 0)
{
if (bRet == -1)
{
return FALSE;
}
else
{
if (!::TranslateAccelerator( m_hWnd, m_hAccel, &msg))
{
MessageBox ("Key Pressed ","Accelerators",MB_OK);
TranslateMessage(&msg);
DispatchMessage(&msg);
}
}
}
return TRUE;
}
