hi Antonio,

Please review FWH\samples\ownerdra.prg

aaah, i have to look into *.RC File too when search for Constant as "Keyword"
i´m not aware about Technique using "REDEFINE" ... is there a Readme for "Dummy" ?

bOwnerDraw -> Combobox
bDrawItem -> Listbox / Combobox (CodeBlock to evaluate to select a ownerdraw bitmap to paint)

Code: Select all  Expand view

METHOD DrawItem( nIdCtl, nPStruct ) CLASS TComboBox
   ...
      uVal  := LbxDrawItem( nPStruct, ::aBitmaps, ::aItems, ::nBmpWidth, ::bDrawItem )
   else
      uVal  := Eval( ::bOwnerDraw, Self, nIdCtl, TDrawItemStruct():New( nPStruct ), nPStruct )

but how does ::bOwnerDraw, look like

can i pass my "own" Method and use API Function to "paint" into TDrawItemStruct():hDC

hi,

have try ComboBox Ownerdraw and "fill" bOwnerDraw with Codeblock

Code: Select all  Expand view

     oCombo_left:bOwnerDraw := {|a,b,c,d| DoMyComBo(a,b,c,d) }

Code: Select all  Expand view

FUNCTION DoMyComBo()

   nCount := PCOUNT()
   FOR ii := 1 TO nCount
      xPara := PValue(ii)
      DO CASE
         CASE ii = 1 ; oSelf    := xPara
         CASE ii = 2 ; nIdCtl   := xPara
         CASE ii = 3 ; aStruc   := xPara
         CASE ii = 4 ; nPointer := xPara
      ENDCASE
   NEXT
   fwlog "DoMyComBo()",nCount, IF(VALTYPE(oSelf) = "O","Object",oSelf) , nIdCtl , VAR2CHAR( aStruc ), nPointer

RETURN 0

Parameter a,b,c,d between "Pipe" (|) come from

Code: Select all  Expand view

      uVal  := Eval( ::bOwnerDraw, Self, nIdCtl, TDrawItemStruct():New( nPStruct ), nPStruct )

Result

"DoMyComBo()" = "DoMyComBo()"

nCount = 4

IF(VALTYPE(oSelf) = "O","Object",oSelf) = "Object"

nIdCtl = 109

VAR2CHAR( aStruc ) = "__itemSetObj( {{CTLTYPE, 3}, {CTLID, 109}, {ITEMID, 0}, {ITEMACTION, 1}, {ITEMSTATE, 4096}, {HWNDITEM, 1770774}, {HDC, 1157698194}, {ARECT, {3, 3, 35, 70}}, {ITEMDATA, `ęƒ}}, {{TDRAWITEMSTRUCT,}} )"

nPointer = 1373540

it seems to have what is need for Ownerdraw ComboBox ... now work can begin

hi,

got 1st Result


but Cursor Highlight does only work when Mouse is over Listbox-Part of Combobox

Code: Select all  Expand view

  CASE itemAction = ODA_SELECT
   CASE itemAction = ODA_DRAWENTIRE
   CASE itemAction = ODA_FOCUS

it does work on ODA_FOCUS to Highlight Item
but when Highlight on ODA_SELECT than "all" Item will be Highlight when move Mouse ... hm

Dear Jimmy,

You are doing an outstanding work on your total commander version, congratulations

Where could we download it from to test it ?

many thanks

[Jimmy]

hi Antonio,

Where could we download it from to test it ?

i´m going to prepare next Release
but still have new Idea ... so i must clean-up again ...

i have now include System Icon from "\System32\imageres.dll" for Ownerdraaw Combobox

Code: Select all  Expand view

     cDLL := WinDir + "\System32\imageres.dll"

      DO CASE
         CASE acType[ itemID + 1 ] = DRIVE_UNKNOWN
            nResID := 75
         CASE acType[ itemID + 1 ] = DRIVE_NO_ROOT_DIR
            nResID := 32

         CASE acType[ itemID + 1 ] = DRIVE_REMOVABLE
            IF SUBSTR( acItem[ itemID + 1 ], 1, 1 ) $ "AB"
               nResID := 23
            ELSE
               cDLL := WinDir + "\System32\DDORes.dll"
               nResID := 2389
            ENDIF

         CASE acType[ itemID + 1 ] = DRIVE_FIXED
            IF SUBSTR( acItem[ itemID + 1 ], 1, 2 ) = "C:"
               nResID := 36
            ELSE
               nResID := 32
            ENDIF
         CASE acType[ itemID + 1 ] = DRIVE_REMOTE
            nResID := 33
         CASE acType[ itemID + 1 ] = DRIVE_CDROM
            nResID := 30
         CASE acType[ itemID + 1 ] = DRIVE_RAMDISK
            nResID := 34

      ENDCASE

      hModule := GetModuleHandle( cDLL )
      IF hModule == 0
         hModule := LoadLibrary( cDLL )
      ENDIF
      nIcoHandle := LOADIMAGERESICON( hModule, nResID, 32 )

      DrawIconEx( hDC, ;
                  nTop, ;
                  nLeft, ;
                  nIcoHandle, ;
                  nSize, ;
                  nSize, ;
                  0, ;                // _In_     UINT   istepIfAniCur,
                  0, ;                // _In_opt_ HBRUSH hbrFlickerFreeDraw,
                  nOr( DI_NORMAL ) )  // _In_     UINT   diFlags

      DestroyIcon( nIcoHandle )
      FreeLibrary( hModule )

now i must not provide Icon in *.RC

p.s. This Image show NO Highlight Bar as Mouse is not "over" Listbox-Part of Combobox ... something is missing ... hm

[Jimmy]

hi,

now Combobox look like Menu
