Firstly, i'd want to say THANKS. Secondly, i ran into error with the "_Test.ahk".



Problem is with this line in "_Test.ahk", i think, with the "menu" part.



I'm using the Toolbar 2.1, perhaps the Rebar example code is outdated?

I have changed the example _Splitter.ahk as below to make it like a vertical side bar, but the second band's title always can't be displayed on the most left like the first one, how can I do to freeze its position? BTW, my os is xp. But in Win2K, it's normal. Is it in relation to visual style?

In the vertical style, the band's width is equal to control's width , and if I want to fix the band's width, I have to set band's mH other than mW Why should be it mH(Minimum height), not L(Length)?

Another problem is that font color can't apply to the control embeded in the rebar.

And how to add a bg bitmap? option "BG test.bmp" can't change the bg. The pic path shoulde be specified absolute or relative?

Ill check out mentioned problems.

Thank you.

First of all, when you set style to vertical, gripper changes automatically. verticalgripper will change it to horizontal in that case . Thats system. About MH MW and L, thats the system too so height in that case is expressed as width... I know it kinda sux but you set this up only once so its not big deal. Its how the control works and I can only change its designed behavior to meet the desired one.

I will see whats wrong with BG in your case. It looks like regression bug.
In the meantime, Check out the sample you gave me, a bit modified to meet what I think is what you want. You can only click the Edit2 gripper to scroll the edit into the view. I also changed the font for you.




I don't know about first thing you mentioned. The title on the first band is always displayed here, I tested on XP64b and Vista 32b.

Hi, guy, I have waiting for your appearance all the time

Maybe the problem is about the option verticalgripper. If I don't specified it as your fixed sample does, the band's titles all remain in the center, and the position is not movable. However, in this case, it looks so ugly because of the deformed gripper.


Instead, If I specified it verticalgripper, only the first band's title appears in the most left and the other bands' titles text will be movable when clicking the title to minimize or maxmize the bands. But this happens only in winxp with visual style. In win2000 and 2003, without theme, all the titles text appear in the left and can't slide, which is what I want. So I guess whether it's in relation to visual style or not.

I think you have problem with how Vista displays Rebar.

XP displays gripper like your 2nd screen-shot, including the first band.

You are actually unhappy about the skin


When you set the vgripper option, you actually don't see gripper at all, but some border....

Perhaps the best option for you is to remove grippers and add custom control that can minimize/maximize the band.

_________________

Now I am sure that all the problems is caused by the skin.

But it seems be not impossible to keep the gripper invisible and keep the capability of toggling maxmized and minimized band at the same time. Option 'nogripper' will disable the toggling.

Yes, it will. You will need programatic toggling via hotkey, button or somthing similar.

Actually, there is solution to add complex controls in the band, but that requires Panel control which can keep other controls. Then, you set pannel to contain your own gripper (button for example), along with the control you want and add Panel to the band. However, Panel control is not yet fully functional so its best to accept limitations for now or change the app design.
