DrawTextW( hdc, strText, -1, rectB, DT_SINGLELINE);
Hi,
I have a peice of a code for loading a icon and draw the text below
the icon on the same button...
i was sucessful in loading an icon but when tried with the DrawText()
to insert a text, its not working and the problem is with the hdc
parameter of DrawText function.
void CNewButtonDlg::CallButton()
{
CString strText("");
//To place the text on the button
RECT rectA = {180, 20, 270, 90}; //left, top, right, bottom
//To nullify the error that parameter must be a LPRECT
and not RECT type i have done so
LPRECT rectB = &rectA;
CDC my_newButton;
HDC hdc;
CWnd *pParent = pParent->GetSafeOwner();
RECT rect = {180, 10, 270, 80};
my_Button.Create(_T("&Button"), WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | BS_PUSHBUTTON
| BS_ICON /*| BS_TOP | BS_TEXT*/,
rect, this, IDC_BUTTON_NEW);
if(my_Button.GetIcon() == NULL)
my_Button.SetIcon(::LoadIcon(AfxGetInstanceHandle( ),MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_ICON_NEW)));
//CDC *pMyCDC = pButtonWnd->GetDC();
my_Button.GetWindowText(strText);
//This function will remove the ampersand present in
the button text.
DelAmpersand(strText);
hdc = ::GetDC(m_hWnd);
//problem with the parameters, even i tried with the
//CDC::DrawText(4 - parameters, its not working);
DrawTextW( hdc, strText, -1, rectB, DT_SINGLELINE); /*| TA_UPDATECP*/
}
Help me out to draw a text on the button after loading a icon on a
button.
