Statusbar control confused

[ragdog]

Hello

I need a Statusbar control for my little project but i confused.

Why return the second SB_SETTEXT always NULL and the set not the Text.

Code Select Expand


LOCAL sbParts[2] :DWORD

.if uMsg==WM_INITDIALOG
;--Statusbar
    invoke GetDlgItem,hWnd,IDC_STATUSBAR
    mov hStatusBar,eax
    mov [sbParts+0],150
    mov [sbParts+4], 120
    invoke SendMessage, hStatusBar, SB_SETPARTS, 2, addr sbParts
    invoke SendMessage, hStatusBar, SB_SETTEXT, 0, chr$ ("Part 1")
invoke SendMessage, hStatusBar, SB_SETTEXT, 1, chr$ ("Part 2")

Thank you in forward,

try the following instead of GetDlgItem - might be the statusbar in your resource is set as a SB_SIMPLE (simple one part statusbar), so therefore it only sees one part for the bar and ignores the other parts?

Code Select Expand

Invoke CreateStatusWindow, WS_CHILD or WS_VISIBLE or WS_CLIPCHILDREN or SBS_SIZEGRIP, NULL, hWnd, IDC_STATUSBAR
mov hStatusBar,eax

Hello Fearless 

Its same with you solution the second return 0 and set not the Text.

I think this is a simply Mistake but i cannot find this little bug.  ::)

Check to see if statusbar control is on the dialog in the resource editor, just to remove it for testing and see if its still showing the same.

Ive tested with and without manifests, tried using the CTEXT and chr$ macros just to try and replicate the issue, but cant seem to, all my test produce output in both panels.

Pretty strange tho :D

InitCommonControls is ok?

Do_Status proc hParent:DWORD

    LOCAL sbParts[4] :DWORD

    invoke CreateStatusWindow,WS_CHILD or WS_VISIBLE or \
                              SBS_SIZEGRIP,NULL, hParent, 200
    mov hStatus, eax
     
    ; -------------------------------------
    ; sbParts is a DWORD array of 4 members
    ; -------------------------------------
    mov [sbParts +  0],   125    ; pixels from left
    mov [sbParts +  4],   250    ; pixels from left
    mov [sbParts +  8],   375    ; pixels from left
    mov [sbParts + 12],    -1    ; last part

    invoke SendMessage,hStatus,SB_SETPARTS,4,ADDR sbParts

    ret

Do_Status endp


hStatus in this context is a GLOBAL value set in the .DATA? section.

Ask Windows, or post your full code.

so with a minimal change to original source:

Code Select Expand

mov [sbParts+4], -1

[ragdog]

mov [sbParts + 12],    -1    ; last part

Yes this works fine.

I forgot it
