Toolbar Menu Buttons

There are several types of toolbar menu buttons available for your application in the BCGControlBar Library:

• A regular menu item
• A menu item with a submenu
• A toolbar button that includes a submenu has a small arrow next to the text or image. When the user clicks the button, the submenu is displayed.
• A toolbar button executes a default command or displays a popup menu ("split" button); in this case, it 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);
