Toolbar Menu Buttons

There are several Toolbar Menu button types available for your application in BCGControlBar Library:

• a regular menu item
• a menu item with a submenu
• a toolbar button with a submenu; in this case the button has a small arrow near the text or image. When the user clicks the button, the submenu is displayed
• a toolbar button, which executes a default command or displays a popup menu; in this case the button has a small arrow separated from the text or image. When the user presses the arrow, the submenu is displayed; otherwise, the default button's command is executed.

Toolbar button with a dropped-down menu:

Sample code:

// Create a menu button:
CBCGPToolbarMenuButton btnNew (uiNewCmdID, hMenuNew /* Handle of menu */, 
    CImageHash::GetImageOfCommand (uiNewCmdID));

// Replace an existing toolbar button by the menu button:
m_wndToolBar.ReplaceButton (ID_FILE_NEW, btnNew);
