One way is to use FindWindowEx[^] and specify the main dialog box and the parent and the title of the child dialog box to find.

Hi,
I have a setup project for my mfc project. It shows default text "Welcome to <projectname> Setup Wizard" in black color. I want to change it's color, position and text fonts. How to do that?

How are you creating the setup? With VS? In which case, it should reside within your solution as an MSI setup project. Look into it.

Thanks Rajesh, I know that I am not a newbie
I had already checked out by right-clicking setup project and choosing "view->user interface" but there was no option for changing "header text color" i.e "Welcome to project-name setup wizard".
Then I also looked into Orca. But There also I could not found any column/option for changing text color. We can change x,y position through Orca but can not change text color or I may be missing.
The disadvantage of usging Orca is that we have to do modify at several places. For example if I want to change welcome text then I to change it in MaintenanceForm, ResumeForm, AdminMaintenanceForm, AdminResumeForm, AdminWelcomForm, WelcomeForm.
Any way to make it simple ?

Oh, sorry. 
I'd love to figure this out, but I don't have VS here (machine is screwed up, needs formatting). I could try this on Monday.
But, please post a reply if you solve it.

yes sure.. Currently I am trying Install-Shield. Few months ago I tried with InstallJammer that was also good. I will decide till evening which tool I am going to use.
|
|
|
|
|
I will go with the installshield 2010. New UI look is better. Unfortunately I downloaded Installshield anywhere. "Anywhere" requires JVM. Since my application in win app so I will go with the express edition of install-shield. I hope express edition does not require jvm.
Installjammer was last updated on Sept 2009 so it is still same as I used last time. Earlier I was having some problem with adding image.

EN_CHANGE is the notification that you need.
Since you're using MFC, try this.
Right click on the edit control in the dialog template.
Select Add Event Handler.
In the wizard select EN_CHANGE in Message type and make sure the dialog class is selected in the Class list.
The click on Add and Edit.

Hi member
i am sock my application crash eventually.I am using 2008 and got assertion.
Windows has triggered a breakpoint in ABC.exe.
This may be due to a corruption of the heap, which indicates a bug in ABC.exe or any of the DLLs it has loaded.
This may also be due to the user pressing F12 while ABC.exe has focus.
The output window may have more diagnostic information.
Can any tool is there which denote me where i am wrong.
Forum member every help increase me.

I have constructed two property sheet frames and need to switch (programatically)between them.
I can change the Z order and bring the hidden frame to the top using
SetWindowPos(&CWnd::wndTop, 0, 0, 0, 0,
SWP_NOMOVE|SWP_NOSIZE| SWP_NOACTIVATE );
The "problem" is that the original frame still has a focus.
When I use SetFocus the new frame gets hidden again.
ActivateFrame produces same result.
Is there any other way to accomplish this?
Any constructive help is as always appreciated.
Thanks Vaclav

|

is SWP_NOACTIVATE the problem?
|
|
|
|
|
Yes,
it does not work at all without it. The windows stays in its Z position , therefore behind the top window of interest.The MSDN explanation of function of SWP_NOACTIVATE is not written in English.
I'll try to get rid of the frame caption / title to see if it works without it( I need it for now to keep track of the property sheets) , but I am busy working on something else now.
Thanks for reply.
Vaclav

Have you considered actually hiding the hidden window: CWnd::ShowWindow( SW_HIDE )? Then it can't have focus and can't be accidentally displayed.
Please do not read this signature.
|
|
|
|
|
No, since it is build as second property sheet it is already hidden.
Seems redundant to do so, but I'll give it a shot. The "problem" is that I can show this window by changing the Z order.
But since it is not covering the original property sheet window ( by design) , the user can click in its tabs and "nothing" will happend since the window on top of the Z order is active but without focus!
So to get back to the "main" tab, the user need to click on the top tab (Z order) and than the main tab see it as active dialog and can operate normally.

(probably still a bit drunk after drinking too much Bandol wines last night).
I have a 2 small functions :
void Toto( const CString& s )
{
std::stringstream ss(s.GetBuffer());
}
void Something( )
{
CString s("some string");
Toto ( s );
}
This obviously does not compile because I cannot get call GetBuffer on a const CString.
any other solution than making a copy of the input string in the function Toto ?
void Toto( const CString& s )
{
CString s1 = s;
std::stringstream ss(s1.GetBuffer());
}
Thanks.
Max.
Watched code never compiles.

Not using GetBuffer() ? 
You should never call GetBuffer, unless you have a very serious reason to do so. CString provides cast operators, so why would you need to call GetBuffer() ?
|
|
|
|
|
yeah, duh ...
that seems to work.
void Toto( const CString& s )
{
std::stringstream ss( (LPCTSTR)s);
// do some stuff with the ss string.
}
Thanks Cédric.

Normally, you don't need to cast the string explicitely. Did you try without the cast ?
