[perl-win32-gui-users] Rebar and toolbar revisited

[Jez White]

Hi,

For a while I've been playing with rebars, with the goal of ending up with 
something like the attached image...

With the recent (excellent) additional methods/styles to the toolbar, I went 
back to the rebar, and tried to add a tool bar to it. I couldn't get the 
toolbar to work when it is used by itself - since it requires a parent on 
creation - but I was able to add a toolbar to a child window, which in turn can 
be added to the rebar. This is not ideal, but does work. See the example below 
(I have used some of the new toolbar styles).

Ideally you should be able to add a toolbar, and for that matter a menu 
directly to a rebar control (not via a child window).  I've done some searching 
and came up with the these examples: 

http://www.codeguru.com/toolbar/iebars.html  (the attached image was taken from 
this site, included the C code required to create this example).
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vccore98/html/_core_rebar_controls_and_bands.asp
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/vcmfc98/html/_mfc_ctoolbar.3a3a.createex.asp

Are these "easy" changes/additions?

Cheers,

jez.
