Examples
The following code example demonstrates constructing a ToolStripControlHost control and setting several properties. To run this example, paste the code into a form that contains a ToolStrip named toolStrip1
and call InitializeDateTimePickerHost
from the form's constructor or the Load
event handler.
ToolStripControlHost^ dateTimePickerHost;
void InitializeDateTimePickerHost()
{
// Create a new ToolStripControlHost, passing in a control.
dateTimePickerHost = gcnew ToolStripControlHost( gcnew DateTimePicker );
// Set the font on the ToolStripControlHost, this will affect the hosted control.
dateTimePickerHost->Font =
gcnew System::Drawing::Font( L"Arial",7.0F,FontStyle::Italic );
// Set the Width property, this will also affect the hosted control.
dateTimePickerHost->Width = 100;
dateTimePickerHost->DisplayStyle = ToolStripItemDisplayStyle::Text;
// Setting the Text property requires a string that converts to a
// DateTime type since that is what the hosted control requires.
dateTimePickerHost->Text = L"12/23/2005";
// Cast the Control property back to the original type to set a
// type-specific property.
(dynamic_cast<DateTimePicker^>(dateTimePickerHost->Control))->Format =
DateTimePickerFormat::Short;
// Add the control host to the ToolStrip.
toolStrip1->Items->Add( dateTimePickerHost );
}
ToolStripControlHost dateTimePickerHost;
private void InitializeDateTimePickerHost()
{
// Create a new ToolStripControlHost, passing in a control.
dateTimePickerHost = new ToolStripControlHost(new DateTimePicker());
// Set the font on the ToolStripControlHost, this will affect the hosted control.
dateTimePickerHost.Font = new Font("Arial", 7.0F, FontStyle.Italic);
// Set the Width property, this will also affect the hosted control.
dateTimePickerHost.Width = 100;
dateTimePickerHost.DisplayStyle = ToolStripItemDisplayStyle.Text;
// Setting the Text property requires a string that converts to a
// DateTime type since that is what the hosted control requires.
dateTimePickerHost.Text = "12/23/2005";
// Cast the Control property back to the original type to set a
// type-specific property.
((DateTimePicker)dateTimePickerHost.Control).Format = DateTimePickerFormat.Short;
// Add the control host to the ToolStrip.
toolStrip1.Items.Add(dateTimePickerHost);
}
