Exemplarische Vorgehensweise: Erstellen eines professionellen ToolStrip-Steuerelements

Sie können den ToolStrip-Steuerelementen Ihrer Anwendung ein professionelles Aussehen und Verhalten verleihen, indem Sie eine eigene Klasse schreiben, die vom Typ ToolStripProfessionalRenderer abgeleitet ist.

In dieser exemplarischen Vorgehensweise wird gezeigt, wie Sie mithilfe von ToolStrip-Steuerelementen ein zusammengesetztes Steuerelement erstellen, das dem Navigationsbereich von Microsoft® Outlook® ähnelt. Die folgenden Aufgaben werden in dieser exemplarischen Vorgehensweise veranschaulicht:

  • Erstellen eines Windows-Steuerelementbibliothek-Projekts

  • Entwerfen des StackView-Steuerelements.

  • Implementieren eines benutzerdefinierten Renderers.

Wenn Sie fertig sind, verfügen Sie über ein wiederverwendbares benutzerdefiniertes Clientsteuerelement mit dem professionellen Aussehen eines Microsoft Office ® XP-Steuerelements.

Informationen zum Kopieren des Codes in diesem Thema als einzelner Eintrag finden Sie unter Gewusst wie: Erstellen eines professionellen ToolStrip-Steuerelements

Voraussetzungen

Für diese exemplarische Vorgehensweise benötigen Sie Visual Studio.

Erstellen des Steuerelementbibliotheksprojekts

  1. Erstellen Sie in Visual Studio ein neues Projekt Windows Control Library namens StackViewLibrary.

  2. Löschen Sie in Projektmappen-Explorer das Standardsteuerelement des Projekts, indem Sie die Quelldatei namens "UserControl1.cs" oder "UserControl1.vb" löschen, abhängig von Ihrer Wahlsprache.

    Weitere Informationen finden Sie in Gewusst wie: Entfernen, Löschen und Ausschließen von Elementen.

  3. Fügen Sie dem Projekt StackViewLibrary ein neues UserControl-Element hinzu. Geben Sie der neuen Quelldatei einen Basisnamen von StackView.

Entwerfen des StackView-Steuerelements

Das StackView-Steuerelement ist ein zusammengesetztes Steuerelement mit einem untergeordneten ToolStrip-Steuerelement. Weitere Informationen zu zusammengesetzten Steuerelementen finden Sie unter Sorten von benutzerdefinierten Steuerelementen.

  1. Ziehen Sie ein ToolStrip-Steuerelement aus der Toolbox auf die Entwurfsoberfläche.

  2. Legen Sie im Fenster Eigenschaften die ToolStrip-Steuerelementeigenschaften gemäß der folgenden Tabelle fest.

    Eigenschaft Wert
    Name stackStrip
    CanOverflow false
    Andocken Bottom
    Schriftart Tahoma, 10pt, style=Bold
    GripStyle Hidden
    LayoutStyle VerticalStackWithOverflow
    Auffüllen 0, 7, 0, 0
    RenderMode Professional
  3. Klicken Sie im Windows Forms-Designer auf die Schaltfläche Hinzufügen des ToolStrip-Steuerelements, und fügen Sie ToolStripButton zum stackStrip-Steuerelement hinzu.

  4. Legen Sie im Fenster Eigenschaften die ToolStripButton-Steuerelementeigenschaften gemäß der folgenden Tabelle fest.

    Eigenschaft Wert
    Name mailStackButton
    CheckOnClick true
    CheckState Checked
    DisplayStyle ImageAndText
    ImageAlign MiddleLeft
    ImageScaling None
    ImageTransparentColor 238, 238, 238
    Margin 0, 0, 0, 0
    Auffüllen 3, 3, 3, 3
    Text Mail
    Textausrichtung MiddleLeft
  5. Wiederholen Sie Schritt 7 für drei weitere ToolStripButton-Steuerelemente.

    Geben Sie für die -Steuerelemente die Namen calendarStackButton, contactsStackButton und tasksStackButton ein. Legen Sie den Wert der Text-Eigenschaft auf Kalender, Kontakte und Aufgaben fest.

Behandeln von Ereignissen

Zwei Ereignisse sind wichtig, damit sich das StackView-Steuerelement richtig verhält. Behandeln Sie das Ereignis, um das Load-Steuerelement ordnungsgemäß zu positionieren. Behandeln Sie das Click-Ereignis für jedes ToolStripButton-Ereignis, um dem Verhalten des StackView-Steuerelements ähnlich dem des RadioButton-Steuerelements zu machen.

  1. Wählen Sie im Windows Forms-Designer das Steuerelement StackView.

  2. Klicken Sie im Fenster Eigenschaften auf Ereignisse.

  3. Doppelklicken Sie auf das Load-Ereignis, um den StackView_Load-Ereignishandler zu generieren.

  4. Kopieren Sie den folgenden Code und fügen Sie ihn in den StackView_Load-Ereignishandler ein.

    // This method handles the Load event for the UserControl.
    private void StackView_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        // Dock bottom.
        this.Dock = DockStyle.Bottom;
    
        // Set AutoSize.
        this.AutoSize = true;
    }
    
    ' This method handles the Load event for the UserControl.
    Private Sub StackView_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
       ' Dock bottom.
       Me.Dock = DockStyle.Bottom
       
       ' Set AutoSize.
       Me.AutoSize = True
     End Sub
    
  5. Wählen Sie im Windows Forms-Designer das Steuerelement mailStackButton.

  6. Klicken Sie im Fenster Eigenschaften auf Ereignisse.

  7. Doppelklicken Sie auf das Ereignis Klick.

    Der Windows Forms Designer generiert den mailStackButton_Click-Ereignishandler.

  8. Umbenennen des mailStackButton_Click-Ereignishandlers in stackButton_Click.

    Weitere Informationen finden Sie auf Refactoring des Umbenennens eines Codesymbols.

  9. Fügen im stackButton_Click-Ereignishandler den folgenden Code ein.

    // This method handles the Click event for all
    // the ToolStripButton controls in the StackView.
    private void stackButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        // Define a "one of many" state, similar to
        // the logic of a RadioButton control.
        foreach (ToolStripItem item in this.stackStrip.Items)
        {
            if ((item != sender) &&
                (item is ToolStripButton))
            {
                ((ToolStripButton)item).Checked = false;
            }
        }
    }
    
    ' This method handles the Click event for all
    ' the ToolStripButton controls in the StackView.
    Private Sub stackButton_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles mailStackButton.Click, calendarStackButton.Click, contactsStackButton.Click, tasksStackButton.Click
       ' Define a "one of many" state, similar to
       ' the logic of a RadioButton control.
       Dim item As ToolStripItem
       For Each item In  Me.stackStrip.Items
             If item IsNot sender AndAlso TypeOf item Is ToolStripButton Then
                 CType(item, ToolStripButton).Checked = False
             End If
       Next item
     End Sub
    
  10. Wählen Sie im Windows Forms-Designer das Steuerelement calendarStackButton.

  11. Legen Sie im Fenster Eigenschaften das Klickereignis auf den stackButton_Click-Ereignishandler fest.

  12. Wiederholen Sie die Schritte 10 und 11 für die contactsStackButton- und tasksStackButton- Steuerelemente.

Definieren von Symbolen

Jede StackView-Schaltfläche verfügt über ein zugeordnetes Symbol. Der Einfachheit halber wird jedes Symbol als Base64-kodierter String dargestellt, der deserialisiert wird, bevor Bitmap daraus erstellt wird. In einer Produktionsumgebung speichern Sie Bitmapdaten als Ressource, und Ihre Symbole werden im Windows Forms Designer angezeigt. Weitere Informationen finden Sie in Gewusst wie: Hinzufügen von Hintergrundbildern zu Windows Forms.

  1. Fügen Sie im Code-Editor den folgenden Code in die StackView-Klassendefinition ein. Dieser Code initialisiert die Bitmaps für die ToolStripButton-Symbole.

    private static Bitmap mailBmp;
    private static Bitmap calendarBmp;
    private static Bitmap contactsBmp;
    private static Bitmap tasksBmp;

Implementieren eines benutzerdefinierten Renderers

Sie können die meisten Elemente des StackView-Steuerelements anpassen, die eine Klasse implementieren, die von der ToolStripRenderer-Klasse abgeleitet wird. In diesem Verfahren implementieren Sie eine ToolStripProfessionalRenderer-Klasse, die den Griff anpassen und Farbverlaufshintergrund für die ToolStripButton-Steuerelemente zeichnet.

  1. Fügen Sie den folgenden Code in die Definition des StackView-Steuerelements ein.

    Dies ist die Definition für die StackRenderer-Klasse, die die RenderGrip-, RenderToolStripBorder- und RenderButtonBackground-Methoden überschreibt, um eine benutzerdefinierte Darstellung zu erzeugen.

    internal class StackRenderer : ToolStripProfessionalRenderer

Testen des StackView-Steuerelements

Das StackView-Steuerelement leitet sich aus der UserControl-Klasse ab. Daher können Sie das Steuerelement mit dem UserControl Test-Container testen. Weitere Informationen finden Sie unter Vorgehensweise: Testen des Laufzeitverhaltens eines UserControl.

  1. Drücken Sie F5, um das Projekt zu erstellen, und führen Sie das Steuerelement im UserControl-Testcontainer aus.

  2. Bewegen Sie den Zeiger über die Schaltflächen des StackView-Steuerelements, und klicken Sie dann auf eine Schaltfläche, um die Darstellung des ausgewählten Zustands anzuzeigen.

Nächste Schritte

In dieser exemplarischen Vorgehensweise haben Sie ein wiederverwendbares benutzerdefiniertes Clientsteuerelement mit der professionellen Darstellung eines Office XP-Steuerelements erstellt. Sie können die ToolStrip-Familie von Steuerelementen für viele andere Zwecke verwenden:
