This is it! Code that uses the
ImageList and the use of the Tab in the
ImageList (great idea!!!). No more
picture boxes, no more picture arrays!
Great code!
|
5/9/2000 12:54:37 PM:Olivier
Go ahead and post it, just make a link
to this site with my name somewhere

Hi Oliver It's Me Again.
First I must
Thank you for giving me the permission
to post the code on my web site.
Do
you have any tutorials or information
as to how to impement this in another
program. (for example : - What f the
user does not want to use the imagelist
control, what can he/she use
instead)
Thanks Again.
May God
Bless You

great code, very easy to use and change
for programmers needs. make sure you
end the program by unload the form and
not using the stop command in the IDE
or VB will shutdown because it has to
unload the class.
|

Well Omar, the use of the ImageList is
hardcoded in the CoolMenu class. That
is, the icons are extracted and drawn
using API calls in the DrawItem
function. The main purpose of the
imagelist is to spare the user the
complecated task of collecting images
in one location.

Double oops... a few minutes ago I
accidently delete a comment from Pietro
Cecchi (cecchi@etrurianet.it) that said
:
Hi Oliver,
at the end someone who
cares of elegance!
I just downloaded
your code, and I saw that frmtest.frx
is missed (that contains the
icons).
Please send it to
me.
Besides, I would ask you if it is
possible to add a MenuItem_MouseMove
event, to serve a help text box with
the meaning of the menu item, while the
cursor goes on it.
A
MenusItem_Forecolor Property (id est
same forecolor as the one of the form)
also, would be very nice to
have!
Sorry about that, I fixed the
zip and reposted it. I'll start
working on the suggested improvement
and will propably post a CoolMenu
update soon. For those of you who want
to try it, go play with OnMenuSelect
and OnDrawItem

Probably the best icon menu code I've
seen.. I turned it into an activeX
control in no time. Works like a charm.
|
5/10/2000 10:43:32 PM:Jeffrey Drake
I have tried to integrate your menu
code into my program, but it gives an
illegal function call. I have to try to
stop the program or debug but I can't
see where it is doing the error.
My
code is available if you wanted to look
at it.
I basically put the code into
my project the way you had it. I
already had a premade application (by
the wizard) and had extended it
somewhat.
Regards,
Jeffrey Drake

5/10/2000 11:05:23 PM:Robbie
hi, is there anyway to make your code
so that when you end/stop the example
vb doesn't always crash? Anyways i
think your code is great, Keep up the
GREAT work!
|
5/11/2000 10:20:31 AM:Olivier Martin
To Jeffrey and Robbie:
the program
will always crash vb when you click on
the "stop" button or if you try to
break the execution.
Send me your code
if you want.

Me again.
I am getting an illeagal
procedure call on this line:
Set
Item = mCol(vntIndexKey)
In the class
CMyItemDatas
Help would be
appreciated.
What I can get looking is
pretty good!

5/15/2000 12:49:28 PM:Olivier Martin
I suggested a few corrections to my
code because "tsi" is using a MDI
environment. I'm not posting them
because it's not a "common" use of
CoolMenu (I hope)
I'll make the
required tests on MDI forms before
releasing the CoolMenu update in
June!
The new version will include
Checks and Radio menus as well as many
bug fixes

About the...
The reason why was indeed
I was not "registered". The sentence
ended with. ... the "update" as I'm
also trying to use CoolMenu in an MDI
form, and seem to have the same bug as
tsi. Help would be appreciated a
lot.
Thanks!

i am getting an out of stack space
error after i click my menu to popup,
then click a menu or off the menu, it
highlights: Set pmds = Nothing
|
5/25/2000 10:18:27 PM:Olivier Martin
What ?!
I'll need more info so I can
reproduce the conditions of the error
and correct it (maybe...)

5/30/2000 4:12:57 AM:Seth DK
This code is very cool, and usefull,
but I have a little problem when using
it on MDI forms. I'm not a
professional, so would you please help
me with this problem? By the way...How
do you change the font to not-bold om a
MDI-form when there's not any
Font-property?
|
5/30/2000 10:21:09 AM:Olivier Martin
MDI forms cause some problems. I'm
still working on it and hope to find
solutions very soon. There is a font
property in the new version but it's
not ready yet
|
5/30/2000 8:02:23 PM:Paul Dexter C. Bacani
Thank you for showing us that it's
possible.
|
5/30/2000 11:07:35 PM:Olivier Martin
Hummm... Paul Dexter
Your name tells
me something...
Thank you very much.
I learned just a few weeks ago that
MANY things ARE possible when I got
around the MenuFromPoint bug. If
you're impressed, wait until you see
the next version...
|
5/31/2000 1:50:39 AM:Seth DK
This version is so cool (except the bug
with the MDIform thing), so I just
can't wait to see the next one.

I am trying to use your menu with a
system tray icon. Everytime when I exit
it causes vb to have an error and
close. I can click on stuff on that
menu it only happens when I close it. I
am not using End anywhere and it works
fine on all the other forms. Does your
menu have a problem working with system
tray icons? Thanks.
|
6/7/2000 11:01:21 AM:Olivier Martin
I have tested CoolMenu (in its current
version) with Systray icons and the
menu works fine; just as
expected.
The only problem you could
have is when you unload your form. You
must use the "Install" function with a
null form handle (0) just like in the
example. If not, or if you press the
stop button in the IDE, vb will crash.
That's a well know subclassing
fact.(believe me, you learn it pretty
fast) Good luck
|
6/7/2000 5:24:38 PM:Matt
I am using multiple forms with it. I
load it on the main form that has the
systray icon and unload it in the that
form. I can install the CoolMenu
everywhere and exit and get no errors.
But when I install it on the main form
with it gives me an illegal operation
everytime and closes Vb.

WOW! Great code! this is very useful
and also gives your application a very
professional look to it. Good work!

Really, this idea is very cool !
|
6/23/2000 9:49:44 AM:Jachym
Hi, very cool code. Can I have
permission to publish it on our VB site
(www.czechia.com/vbasic),please?
|
6/23/2000 11:04:13 AM:Olivier Martin
Yes Jachym, you can post my code on
your site. But I want my name on it
and you'll have to do the
traduction.
I suggest you use the
leatest version however. Search for
"CoolMenu" or browse in "my other
submissions" (1)
|
6/26/2000 6:46:09 AM:Vasilis Sagonas
!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU !!!!!!! That's
EXACTLY What I was looking for!!!!!!
|
6/26/2000 6:51:06 AM:Vasilis Sagonas
Sorry! I was impressed :))) This is a
great idea and great code! Great
great!!! Can I use it in a freeware
program i prepare?
(http://www.dawn.gr/netfly) for its new
version ?
|
6/26/2000 10:08:43 AM:Olivier Martin
You can use my CoolMenu your app, but
I'd like you to add my name somewhere.
You should also use the latest version
: browse my "other submissions" (1) or
search for "CoolMenu"

This is good! I have been using The
icon in menu code from
http://vbthunder.com for some time now
but I have to say this is much
better(Except for the freeze when you
push the stop button!)I have also tried
http://vbaccelerator.com s put that
crashes if you use it for right click
menus! This is the best example!(I have
tried your newer code but it is not
this simple!, What code do I use to
make those neet seporaters??)

I doesn't draw the icons in winXP.
The
small 'box' is drawn in the menus, but
no icons. (or maybe it's me? >)
|
4/28/2002 5:46:35 PM:Juan Rodriguez
This system dosn't work in WinXP, i
tried to change the windows commaon
control's version, and it works just
before corrupt the icons on the
imagelist, any idea?
|
12/17/2002 10:52:27 PM:
The menus appear to work correctly but
when I exit my program it crashes in
Kernel32.dll ..... the program won't
exit/quit cleanly..... I stepped thru
the program for a long time and I
think
it dies in mCoolMenu in
WindowProc but
can't be sure....
Has anyone seen this
or know how to
debug it?
Regards
-Tim
