Hi,

I have implemented prof-ui menu bars and prof-ui style advanced tool bars for the user interfaces of my application. When i right click on the empty non-client area near the menu bar or the advanced tool bar, I get to see popup menu. I would like to remove or make invisible these popup menus in the non client area. Is this possible.

Also i would like to hide the pop-up menu appearing from the click over the chevron buttons (near the arrows at the end) present on the advanced tool bars. Is it possible

 

Thanks

Howard

 

To remove the window menu, you should override the following internal virtual method in your CExtMenuControlBar-derived class and simply return TRUE value instead of invoking the parent class method:

      virtual BOOL _TrackFrameSystemMenu(
            CWnd * pFrame,
            CPoint * pPoint = NULL, // NULL means calc menu track area automatically
            BOOL bSelectAny = FALSE,
            LPCRECT rcExcludeArea = NULL,
            UINT nTrackFlags = (UINT)(-1),
            BOOL bCombinedMode = FALSE
            );

You can also modify or remove any of built-in Prof-UIS popup menus, which is described here.
