Hi everybody,
i place a Grid into a position of (-10,0,200,100) into my view.
So there are missing 10 pixels of the grid, which i wanted.
My question is: Why i get a rectangle of (0,0,190,100) if i make a
Grid->GetClientRect(rect); ?
It's normally correct that the rectangle starts always in a client-position in 0,0
But how i can retrieve where my grid is really positionated on the view?
I want to get the value of (-10,0,200,100), like i used it in the Grid->Create(...);
Big thanks for help

By drawing something at (-10,0,200,100), you should have produced a result like this:
<font color="blue">|</font> <font color="blue"> |</font>
--<font color="blue">|</font>----------<font color="blue"> |</font>
--<font color="blue">|</font>----------<font color="blue"> |</font>
--<font color="blue">|</font>----------<font color="blue"> |</font>
--<font color="blue">|</font>----------<font color="blue"> |</font>
--<font color="blue">|</font>----------<font color="blue"> |</font>
The blue line is the virtual boundary and what is drawn outside the boundary, is gone invisible. Why don't you begin your drawing at 0,0 instead of -10, 0 ? Is there a specific reason to it?

Been drinking an espresso americano. Probably that had something to do with it. Rich, smooth and warm. Ah - Caffeine in my blood.

I know espresso (i.e. Italian  ) coffee, and American coffee (i.e. espresso watered down  ).
What is espresso americano?

You're a lucky guy sitting at Italy. You must be drinking the best espresso coffees.

I'm not a coffee expert (I drink lots of tea). To me, it is just another black coffee. But I always like italiano (in black coffee) or cappuccino better for reasons unknown. I've also liked frappe + chocolate sauce topped up with freshly whipped cream (when it comes to cold coffee).
I think we're *this* close to hijack this thread and convert it to a food thread completely.

big thanks for your answer.
Yes it has really a reason This way i hide a vertical at the left side of the Grid.
So the grid is smaller and fit's better to the layout.
Ok, as i understand i can't get the initial value because during the draw it's "deleted"
but if this grid is drawn at new, "the view" need to know how to draw the grid, which means
at (-10,0,200,100) and not at (0,0,...)

I get it now. I was just wondering why did you go out of your way to draw your grid out of the window area. Rajkumar's answer is pretty straight forward. CPallini's solution should work too.

I think you need:
pGrid->GetWindowRect(&rect);
pView->ScreenToClient(&rect);
But I didn't make a test.

AFAIK, you have to remove the call to ScreenToClient, otherwise you'll end up with the same resutl as calling GetClientRect.
|
|
|
|

I don't think so, because ScreenToClient is called by the pointer to CView.
On the other hand, pGrid->GetWindowRect will not produce the expected result for sure (of course there is a small probability for a coincidence...).

Yes that's right, I completely missed the point (next time I'll read the question more slowly)

Client rectangle is relative to the upper left corner of the window. so the coordinates of the upper-left corner are (0,0).

You may need to map the rectangle from grid to your view window, see [MapWindowPoints^]

Big thanks for MapWindowPoints 
I will test it 
|
|
|
|
|
I think CPallini's solution should also work for your case.
|
|
|
|
|
I was just going to suggest that to him.

yes offcourse, but MapWindowPoints is straight forward. instead of WindowA->Screen->WindowB, it is WindowA->WindowB.
|
|
|
|
|
Umm... yes, but I wanted to clarify the OP CPallini's answer is right too, as there was a conversation on its correctness between him and Cedric.

Both of you are smart without a doubt.

If I'm not wrong, the client area is the portion of a Windows excluding toolbars, menus, and status bars which always starts with (0,0) coordinates.
And about GetWindowRect, MSDN says "The GetClientRect function retrieves the coordinates of a window's client area. The client coordinates specify the upper-left and lower-right corners of the client area. Because client coordinates are relative to the upper-left corner of a window's client area, the coordinates of the upper-left corner are (0,0)."

How can I hook all the messages passed to the Toolbar?
For example,I want to hook the message TB_COMMANDTOINDEX and the message WM_LBUTTONDOWN passed to the Toolbar.But when I use the function SetWindowsHookEx(...),I get a problem!I don't know how to set the first parameter of the function.Do I need to make two different hooks? or can solve the problem in one?
Thanks for your help!

Why don't you try to hook windows procedure itself ('WH_CALLWNDPROC' as the first parameter) or 'WH_GETMESSAGE'. And can you specify what error do you get?
