Re: Visible state of menu bitmaps with CmdUI->SetCheck(TRUE)
What would you want it to do? SetCheck takes an int not a BOOL. 0 =
unchecked, 1 = checked, 2 = indeterminate state.
These are the only choices you have. So if you call SetCheck for menu item
or toolbar button with anything other than 0 then it will set a check mark
next to it or keep the button pressed.

Would anybody know why the bitmaps in my menus do appear depressed when I
am setting the checked state in my command update handler. For example:
ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI(ID_SHOW_SPLITVIEW, OnUpdateShowSplitView)
void CSomeDoc::OnUpdateShowSplitView(CCmdUI* pCmdUI)
{
pCmdUI->SetCheck( TRUE );
}
If I have a menu item associated with the ID set to ID_SHOW_SPLITVIEW and
a toolbar resource that contains a button with the same ID
(ID_SHOW_SPLITVIEW ), shouldn't the bitmap be displayed differently in the
dropdown menu when I set the checked state to TRUE?
The button does change its visible appearance in the toolbar however.
Any input whould be much appreciated.
