Hi all,
I have a dialog with a rich edit box (CRichEditCtrl).
I need to set it to single line mode. I cannot do that in the resource
editor,
because I want to use the same dialog in both singleline an multiline
mode,
depending on the program logic.
I tried this:
from the OnInitDialog() I called
m_ctrl_text.ModifyStyleEx(ES_MULTILINE, 0, 0);
did not help.
Many control styles can not be changed after creation. This must be one of
them.
then I tried to handle ON_WM_CREATE()
like this:
BEGIN_MESSAGE_MAP(QMyRichEditCtrl, CRichEditCtrl)
//{{AFX_MSG_MAP(QMyRichEditCtrl)
ON_WM_CREATE()
//}}AFX_MSG_MAP
END_MESSAGE_MAP()
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// QMyRichEditCtrl message handlers
int QMyRichEditCtrl::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct)
{
AfxMessageBox(_T("hi"));
return CRichEditCtrl::OnCreate(lpCreateStruct);
}
but th handler does not get called.
Control member variables are attached to the dialog control's HWND after
creation. The WM_CREATE message has already come and gone by the time this
happens.
Any ideas please?
Re-Create the control?
