VeCAD (VectorCAD) & LiteCAD SDK for programming on BCX & C-lang (NOT OOP)

timovjl, Thank you for your attention to my non-professional research.
Add these lines to the program.

resource.h

STRINGTABLE  \resource.h(265): warning #2099: Missing type specifier
BEGIN  \resource.h(266): error #2001: Syntax error: expected ';' but found 'BEGIN'
IDS_APP_TITLE "LiteCAD-editor2"\resource.h(267): error #2156: Unrecognized declaration
END  \resource.h(270): warning #2099: Missing type specifier

Moved STRINGTABLE to file main.rc

The program compiles, but Tips do not appear.

Topic suggestions I looked in MSDN and other sources.
Added for each icon in the Toolbar TBSTYLE_TOOLTIPS

Code Select Expand

TBButton(&tbb[0], TD_SNAP_ENDPOINT, CM_SNAP_ENDPOINT, TBSTATE_WRAP | TBSTATE_ENABLED, TBSTYLE_BUTTON | TBSTYLE_TOOLTIPS);
TBButton(&tbb[1], TD_SNAP_MIDPOINT, CM_SNAP_MIDPOINT, TBSTATE_WRAP | TBSTATE_ENABLED, TBSTYLE_BUTTON | TBSTYLE_TOOLTIPS);

But it did not help.

He created from one of the tutorials feature WndProc_OnNotify

Code Select Expand

LRESULT WndProc_OnNotify(HWND hWnd, int idFrom, NMHDR* pnmhdr)
{
  LPTOOLTIPTEXT lpToolTipText;
  LPTBNOTIFY lptbn;
  int nItem;
  static CHAR szBuf[128];

  switch(pnmhdr->code)
  {
    case TTN_NEEDTEXT:
      lpToolTipText = (LPTOOLTIPTEXT)pnmhdr;
      LoadString(hInst, lpToolTipText->hdr.idFrom, szBuf, sizeof(szBuf));
     lpToolTipText->lpszText = szBuf;
      break;

    case TBN_GETBUTTONINFO:
      lptbn = (LPTBNOTIFY)pnmhdr;
      nItem = lptbn->iItem;
      lptbn->tbButton.iBitmap   = tbb[nItem].iBitmap;
      lptbn->tbButton.idCommand = tbb[nItem].idCommand;
      lptbn->tbButton.fsState   = tbb[nItem].fsState;
      lptbn->tbButton.fsStyle   = tbb[nItem].fsStyle;
      lptbn->tbButton.dwData    = tbb[nItem].dwData;
      lptbn->tbButton.iString   = tbb[nItem].iString;

      return ((nItem < sizeof(tbb)/sizeof(tbb[0]))? TRUE : FALSE);
      break;
 
    case TBN_QUERYDELETE:
      lptbn = (LPTBNOTIFY)pnmhdr;
      nItem = lptbn->iItem;
      return (nItem == 0)? FALSE : TRUE;
      break;
   
    case TBN_QUERYINSERT:
      lptbn = (LPTBNOTIFY)pnmhdr;
      nItem = lptbn->iItem;
      return (nItem == 0)? FALSE : TRUE;
      break;
   
    case TBN_TOOLBARCHANGE:
      SendMessage(hwndTb, TB_AUTOSIZE, 0L, 0L);
      return TRUE;
      break;
   
    default:
      break;
  }
  return FALSE;
}
It also does not take ToolTips.
I do not know what else to do.

Sorry,  stringtable goes to main.rc of course.
I just made those changes to your LiteCADEditor2 and it works in my tests.
Only problem was those duplicate id's.
Remember to add TBSTYLE_TOOLTIPS to window style when you create ToolBar window.
See example.

[TimoVJL]

I attached that code to older message.

[sergey]

I looked at your code, and add this to my code.
It works fine.

Again you helped me. Thank you.

[sergey]

Thanks to timovjl ToolTips in all ToolBars are now working.

Added some geodetic subroutines, see archive inside.
Now can construct Road-profile.
Works only with LiteCAD.dll - see add. archive.
