Re: disappearing toolbar

I don't use MFC and I'm using VC++ 6, but maybe you have to handle the
WM_SIZE message.
In MFC, it would be something like an OnSize() or similar function.
You may have to manually resize and move it.

I use a Rebar that I resize every time the window is resized and the
function looks like this ...

//ghWnd is the main application's window

void MoveRebar(HWND hWnd)
{
 RECT rc,rcRebar;
 int x,y,cx,cy;

 GetClientRect(ghWnd, &rc);
 GetWindowRect(GetDlgItem(hWnd, ID_REBAR), &rcRebar);

 switch(g_wSide) {
 default:
 case TOP:
  //align the rebar along the top of the window
  x = 0;
  y = 0;
  cx = rc.right - rc.left;
  cy = rcRebar.bottom - rcRebar.top;
  break;

 case LEFT:
  //align the rebar along the left side of the window
  x = 0;
  y = 0;
  cx = rcRebar.right - rcRebar.left;
  cy = rc.bottom - rc.top;
  break;

 case BOTTOM:
  //align the rebar along the bottom of the window
  x = 0;
  y = rc.bottom - ((rcRebar.bottom - rcRebar.top));
  cx = rc.right - rc.left;
  cy = rcRebar.bottom - rcRebar.top;
  break;

 case RIGHT:
  //align the coolbar along the right side of the window
  x = rc.right - (rcRebar.right - rcRebar.left);
  y = 0;
  cx = rcRebar.right - rcRebar.left;
  cy = rc.bottom - rc.top;
  break;
 }

 MoveWindow( GetDlgItem(hWnd, ID_REBAR),
    x,
    y,
    cx,
    cy,
    TRUE);
 //workaround, have to maximize last toolbar else it is right justified
 SendMessage(ghRebar,RB_MAXIMIZEBAND,(WPARAM)4,(LPARAM)0);
}

I hope that this give you something to work with, or that someone working
with MFC answers your post.
