How to remove horizontal scrollbar from CScrollView? The vertical must be remained!

Zoltán Hegedüs 101

My English is not perfect. I do not use the horizontal scrollbar of CScrollView, how can I remove this? The vertical scrollbar must be remained! Thank you.

If the scrollbar is not required (the whole view is fit on the window), the scrollbar disappeares, but only if there is not splitter!

BOOL CChildFrame::OnCreateClient(CREATESTRUCT *, CCreateContext *pContext) {
 return m_wndSplitter.Create(this, 2, 1, CSize(60, 60), pContext);
}

Without this, menu item Split in Window menu is disabled, so, does not selectable: split view does not work. How can I enable automatic disappearing with splitter?

This is independent from the splitter is enabled (there is 2 views), or does not enabled: the not required splitter does not disapper even if only 1 view is exist.

The 2 views have own vertical scrollbar, but have shared horizontal scroll bar: they are scrolled at once. But I want to set different positions. How can I create own scroll bars?

Have you tried using EnableScrollBarCtrl?

Yes, in OnPrepareDC, OnSize, etc. before and after all calls to function of CScrollView.

OK, given that CScrollView normally only shows scroll bars when the view area exceeds the display window size, and if it does, then you'd presumably want to have scroll bars, why do you have this problem?

"CScrollView normally only shows scroll bars when the view area exceeds the display window size"

No! Shows the scroll bar, but there is no slider in the scrollbar. Does not hide by itself.

In that case I suggest that you start with a clean project - don't add any code, just see what the default behaviour is.

Yes, I see. But I added only required code, so, I do not know why does not disappear at me.

So, in a clean project, you can see that the scroll bars don't appear when the window is large enough for the view, but with your project they stay?
In that case you need to see what's different between your project that's giving rise to this behaviour.

The cause was the splitter. I supplemented the question.
