Data Members

Name Description
CPane::m_bHandleMinSize Enables consistent handling of the minimal size for panes.
CPane::m_recentDockInfo Contains recent docking information.

Remarks

Typically, CPane objects are not instantiated directly. If you require a pane that has docking functionality, derive your object from CDockablePane. If you require toolbar functionality, derive your object from CMFCToolBar.

DM_MOUSE Used internally.
DM_DBL_CLICK This option is used when the gripper is double-clicked. The pane is repositioned at its most recent docking position. If the pane is undocked by double-clicking, the pane is repositioned at its most recent floating position.
DM_SHOW This option can be used to programmatically dock the pane. The pane stores its most recent floating position.
DM_RECT The pane is docked in the region that is specified by lpRect.
DM_STANDARD When you use this option, the framework draws the pane as an outline frame while it is being moved.

Return Value

TRUE if the pane was docked successfully; otherwise, FALSE.

Remarks

This method docks the pane to the base pane that is specified by the pDockBar parameter. You must first enable docking by calling CBasePane::EnableDocking.

CPane::DockPaneStandard

Docks a pane by using outline (standard) docking.

virtual CPane* DockPaneStandard(BOOL& bWasDocked);

Parameters

bWasDocked
[in] TRUE if the pane was successfully docked; otherwise, FALSE.

[in] Specifies the docking method to use when the pane is floated. For a list of possible values, see CPane::DockPane.

bShow
[in] TRUE to show the pane when floated; otherwise, FALSE.

Return Value

TRUE if the pane was floated successfully or if the pane cannot be floated because CBasePane::CanFloat returns FALSE; otherwise, FALSE.

Remarks

Call this method to float the pane at the position that is specified by the rectFloat parameter. This method automatically creates a parent mini-frame window for the pane.

CPane::GetAvailableExpandSize

Returns the amount, in pixels, that the pane can expand.

virtual int GetAvailableExpandSize() const;

Return Value

If the pane is docked horizontally, the return value is the available width; otherwise, the return value is the available height.

Remarks

CPane::GetAvailableStretchSize

Returns the amount, in pixels, that the pane can shrink.

virtual int GetAvailableStretchSize() const;

Return Value

The amount, in pixels, that the pane can shrink. If the pane is docked horizontally, this amount is the available width; otherwise, it is the available height.

Remarks

The available stretch size is calculated by subtracting the minimum allowed size for the pane ( CPane::GetMinSize) from the current size ( CWnd::GetWindowRect).

CPane::GetBorders

Returns the width of the borders of the pane.

CRect GetBorders() const;

Return Value

A CRect object that contains the current width, in pixels, of each side of the pane. For example, the value of the left member of the CRect object is the width of the left border.

Remarks

To set the size of the borders, call CPane::SetBorders.

CPane::GetClientHotSpot

Returns the hot spot for the pane.

CPoint GetClientHotSpot() const;

CPane::GetDockSiteRow

Returns the dock row ( CDockingPanesRow Class) in which the pane is docked.

CDockingPanesRow* GetDockSiteRow() const;

Return Value

A CDockingPanesRow* that points to the dock row in which the pane is docked, or NULL if the pane is not docked.

CPane::GetExclusiveRowMode

Determines if the pane is in exclusive row mode.

virtual BOOL GetExclusiveRowMode() const;

Return Value

TRUE if the pane is in exclusive row mode; otherwise, FALSE.

Remarks

For more information about exclusive row mode, see CPane::SetExclusiveRowMode.

CPane::GetHotSpot

Returns the hot spot that is stored in an underlying CMFCDragFrameImpl object.

CPoint GetHotSpot() const;

Return Value

Remarks

The CPane class contains a CMFCDragFrameImpl object, m_dragFrameImpl, that is responsible for drawing the rectangle that appears when the user moves a pane in the standard docking mode. The hot spot is used to draw the rectangle relative to the current mouse position as the user moves the pane.

CPane::GetMinSize

Retrieves the minimum allowed size for the pane.

virtual void GetMinSize(CSize& size) const;

Parameters

size
[out] A CSize object that is filled with the minimum allowed size.

Remarks

Retrieves the title for the pane.

virtual void GetPaneName(CString& strName) const;

Parameters

strName
[out] A CString object that is filled with the caption name.

Remarks

The pane title is displayed in the caption area when the pane is docked or floating. If the pane is part of a tabbed group, the title is displayed in the tab area. If the pane is in auto-hide mode, the title is displayed on a CMFCAutoHideButton.

CPane::GetVirtualRect

Retrieves the virtual rectangle of the pane.

void GetVirtualRect(CRect& rectVirtual) const;

Parameters

rectVirtual
[out] A CRect object that is filled with the virtual rectangle.

Remarks

When a pane is moved, the framework stores the original position of the pane in a virtual rectangle. The framework can use the virtual rectangle to restore the original position of the pane.

Do not call methods that are related to virtual rectangles unless you are moving panes programmatically.

CPane::IsChangeState

As the pane is being moved, this method analyzes its position relative to other panes, dock rows, and mini-frame windows, and returns the appropriate AFX_CS_STATUS value.

virtual AFX_CS_STATUS IsChangeState(
    int nOffset,
    CBasePane** ppTargetBar) const;

Parameters

nOffset
[in] Specifies docking sensitivity. For example, a pane that is moved within nOffset pixels from a dock row will be docked.

ppTargetBar
[in] When the method returns, ppTargetBar contains either a pointer to the object to which the current pane should be docked, or NULL if no docking should occur.

Return Value

One of the following AFX_CS_STATUS values:

Value Description
CS_NOTHING The pane is not near a dock site. The framework does not dock the pane.
CS_DOCK_IMMEDIATELY The pane is over a dock site, and the DT_IMMEDIATE style is enabled. The framework docks the pane immediately.
CS_DELAY_DOCK The pane is over a dock site that is either another docking pane or an edge of the main frame. The framework docks the pane when the user releases the move.
CS_DELAY_DOCK_TO_TAB The pane is over a dock site that causes the pane to be docked in a tabbed window. This occurs when the pane is either over the caption of another docking pane or over the tab area of a tabbed pane. The framework docks the pane when the user releases the move.

CPane::IsDragMode

Specifies whether the pane is being moved.

virtual BOOL IsDragMode() const;

Return Value

TRUE if the pane is being moved; otherwise, FALSE.

Remarks

CPane::IsInFloatingMultiPaneFrameWnd

Specifies whether the pane is in a multi-pane frame window ( CMultiPaneFrameWnd Class).

virtual BOOL IsInFloatingMultiPaneFrameWnd() const;

Return Value

TRUE if the pane is in a multi-pane frame window; otherwise, FALSE.

Remarks

Only dockable panes can float in a multi-pane frame window. Therefore, CPane::IsInFloatingMultiPaneFrameWnd always returns FALSE.

CPane::IsLeftOf

Determines whether the pane is left of (or above) the specified rectangle.

bool IsLeftOf(
    CRect rect,
    bool bWindowRect = true) const;

Parameters

rect
[in] A CRect object that is used for comparison.

bWindowRect
[in] If TRUE, rect is assumed to contain screen coordinates; if FALSE, rect is assumed to contain client coordinates.

Return Value

Remarks

If the pane is docked horizontally, this method checks whether its location is left of rect. Otherwise, this method checks whether the location is above rect.

CPane::IsResizable

Specifies whether the pane is resizable.

virtual BOOL IsResizable() const;

Return Value

TRUE if the pane is resizable; otherwise, FALSE.

Remarks

Base CPane objects are not resizable.

The docking manager uses the resizable flag to determine pane layout. Non-resizable panes are always located at the outer edges of the parent frame.

Non-resizable panes cannot reside in docking containers.

CPane::IsTabbed

Determines whether the pane has been inserted into the tab control of a tabbed window.

virtual BOOL IsTabbed() const;

Return Value

TRUE if the pane is tabbed; otherwise, FALSE.

Remarks

The tabbed state is treated separately from the floating, docked, and auto-hide states.

CPane::LoadState

Loads the state of the pane from the registry.

virtual BOOL LoadState(
    LPCTSTR lpszProfileName = NULL,
    int nIndex = -1,
    UINT uiID = (UINT) -1);

Parameters

lpszProfileName
[in] Profile name.

nIndex
[in] Profile index.

uiID
[in] Pane ID.

Return Value

TRUE if the pane state was loaded successfully; otherwise, FALSE.

Remarks

The framework calls this method to load the pane state from the registry. Override it in a derived class to load additional information that is saved by CPane::SaveState.

When you override this method, also call the base method, and return FALSE if the base method returns FALSE.

CPane::m_bHandleMinSize

Enables consistent handling of minimum pane sizes.

AFX_IMPORT_DATA static BOOL m_bHandleMinSize;

Remarks

If one or more docking panes in your application override GetMinSize, or if your application calls SetMinSize, you may want to set this static member to TRUE in order to enable the framework to consistently handle how panes are sized.

If this value is set to TRUE, all panes whose size should be reduced below their minimum size are clipped, not stretched. Because the framework uses window regions for pane sizing purposes, do not change the size of the window region for docking panes if this value is set to TRUE.

CPane::m_recentDockInfo

Contains recent docking information.

CRecentDockSiteInfo m_recentDockInfo;

Remarks

The framework stores the latest docking state information for the pane in this member.

CPane::MoveByAlignment

Moves the pane and the virtual rectangle by the specified amount.

BOOL MoveByAlignment(
    DWORD dwAlignment,
    int nOffset);

Parameters

dwAlignment
[in] Specifies pane alignment.

nOffset
[in] The amount, in pixels, by which to move the pane and the virtual rectangle.

Return Value

Remarks

dwAlignment can be any of the following values:

Value Description
CBRS_ALIGN_TOP Enables the pane to be docked to the top of the client area of a frame window.
CBRS_ALIGN_BOTTOM Enables the pane to be docked to the bottom of the client area of a frame window.
CBRS_ALIGN_LEFT Enables the pane to be docked to the left side of the client area of a frame window.
CBRS_ALIGN_RIGHT Enables the pane to be docked to the right side of the client area of a frame window.
CBRS_ALIGN_ANY Enables the pane to be docked to any side of the client area of a frame window.

If dwAlignment contains the CBRS_ALIGN_LEFT or CBRS_ALIGN_RIGHT flag, the pane and virtual rectangle are moved horizontally; otherwise, if dwAlignment contains the CBRS_ALIGN_TOP or CBRS_ALIGN_BOTTOM flag, the pane and virtual rectangle are moved vertically.

CPane::MovePane

Moves the pane to the specified rectangle.

virtual CSize MovePane(
    CRect rectNew,
    BOOL bForceMove,
    HDWP& hdwp);

Parameters

rectNew
[in] Specifies the new rectangle for the pane.

bForceMove
[in] If TRUE, this method ignores the minimum allowed pane size ( CPane::GetMinSize); otherwise, the pane is adjusted, if necessary, to ensure that it is at least the minimum allowed size.

hdwp
[in] Not used.

Return Value

A CSize object that contains the differences in width and height between the new and old rectangles (old rectangle - rectNew).

Remarks

This method is used only for dockable panes.

[in] Specifies the docking method of the pane.

Return Value

TRUE if the pane can be floated; otherwise, FALSE.

Remarks

This method is called by the framework when a pane is about to float. You can override this method in a derived class if you want to perform any processing before the pane finally floats.

CPane::OnPressCloseButton

Called by the framework when the user presses the close button on the caption for the pane.

virtual void OnPressCloseButton();

Remarks

This method is called by the framework when a user presses the Close button on the pane's caption. To receive notifications about the Close event, you can override this method in a derived class.

CPane::OnShowControlBarMenu

Called by the framework when a special pane menu is about to be displayed.

virtual BOOL OnShowControlBarMenu(CPoint point);

Parameters

point
[in] Specifies the menu location.

Return Value

TRUE if the menu can be displayed; otherwise, FALSE.

Remarks

The menu contains several items that enable you to specify the pane's behavior, namely: Floating, Docking, AutoHide, and Hide. You can enable this menu for all panes by calling CDockingManager::EnableDockSiteMenu.

CPane::RecalcLayout

Recalculates layout information for the pane.

virtual void RecalcLayout();

Remarks

If the pane is docked, this method updates the virtual rectangle for the pane by setting its size to the current size of the pane.

If the pane is floating, this method notifies the parent mini-frame to adjust the size of the pane to the size of the mini-frame. The framework ensures that the mini-frame is at least the minimum allowed size for the pane ( CPane::GetMinSize) and resizes the mini-frame if necessary.

CPane::SaveState

Saves the state of the pane to the registry.

virtual BOOL SaveState(
    LPCTSTR lpszProfileName = NULL,
    int nIndex = -1,
    UINT uiID = (UINT) -1);

Parameters

lpszProfileName
[in] Profile name.

nIndex
[in] Profile index.

uiID
[in] Pane ID.

Return Value

TRUE if the state was saved successfully; otherwise, FALSE.

Remarks

The framework calls this method when it saves the state of the pane to the registry. Override SaveState in a derived class to store additional information.

When you override this method, also call the base method, and return FALSE if the base method returns FALSE.

CPane::SetActiveInGroup

Flags a pane as active.

virtual void SetActiveInGroup(BOOL bActive);

Parameters

bActive
[in] A BOOL that specifies whether the pane is flagged as active.

Remarks

When a dockable pane is shown or an auto-hide button is chosen, the corresponding auto-hide pane is marked as active.

The appearance of an auto-hide button that is associated with the pane is based on two factors. If the pane is active, and the static BOOL CMFCAutoHideButton::m_bOverlappingTabs is TRUE, the framework displays the auto-hide button as an icon and a label. For an inactive pane, the framework displays only the auto-hide icon.

If CMFCAutoHideButton::m_bOverlappingTabs is FALSE, or if the pane is not located in a group, the framework displays the associated auto-hide button as an icon and a label.

CPane::SetBorders

Sets the border values of the pane.

void SetBorders(
    int cxLeft = 0,
    int cyTop = 0,
    int cxRight = 0,
    int cyBottom = 0);

void SetBorders(LPCRECT lpRect);

Parameters

cxLeft
[in] Specifies the width, in pixels, of the left border of the pane.

cyTop
[in] Specifies the width, in pixels, of the top border of the pane.

cxRight
[in] Specifies the width, in pixels, of the right border of the pane.

cyBottom
[in] Specifies the width, in pixels, of the bottom border of the pane.

lpRect
[in] A CRect object that contains the width, in pixels, of each border of the pane.

Remarks

Call this function to set the sizes of the pane's borders.

CPane::SetClientHotSpot

Sets the hot spot for the pane.

void SetClientHotSpot(const CPoint& ptNew);

Parameters

ptNew
[in] A CPoint object that specifies the new hot spot.

Remarks

The hot spot is the point on the pane that the user selects and holds to move the pane. A hot spot is used for smooth animation when the pane is dragged from a docked position.

CPane::SetDockState

Restores docking state information for the pane.

virtual void SetDockState(CDockingManager* pDockManager);

Parameters

pDockManager
[in] Pointer to the docking manager for the main frame window.

Remarks

This method is called by the framework to restore recent docking state information for the pane. A pane stores recent docking state information in CPane::m_recentDockInfo. For more information, see the CRecentDockSiteInfo Class.

You can also call this method to set the docking state when you load pane information from an external source.

CPane::SetExclusiveRowMode

Enables or disables the exclusive row mode.

virtual void SetExclusiveRowMode(BOOL bExclusive = TRUE);

Parameters

bExclusive
[in] TRUE to enable exclusive row mode; otherwise, FALSE.

Remarks

Call this method to enable or disable exclusive row mode. When a pane is in exclusive row mode, it cannot share the same row with any other toolbars.

By default, all toolbars have exclusive row mode disabled and the menu bar has exclusive row mode enabled.

CPane::SetMinSize

Sets the minimum allowed size for the pane.

void SetMinSize(const CSize& size);

Parameters

size
[in] A CSize object that contains the minimum allowed size for the pane.

Remarks

CPane::SetVirtualRect

Sets the virtual rectangle of the pane.

void SetVirtualRect(
    const CRect& rect,
    BOOL bMapToParent = TRUE);

Parameters

rect
[in] A CRect object that specifies the virtual rectangle to be set.

bMapToParent
[in] Specify TRUE if rect contains points relative to the parent window.

Remarks

A virtual rectangle stores the original position of a pane when it is moved. The framework can use the virtual rectangle to restore the original position.

Do not call methods that are related to virtual rectangles unless you are moving panes programmatically.

CPane::SetMiniFrameRTC

Sets the runtime class information for the default mini-frame window.

void SetMiniFrameRTC(CRuntimeClass* pClass);

Parameters

pClass
[in, out] Specifies the runtime class information for the mini-frame window.

Remarks

When a pane is floated, it is put on a CPaneFrameWnd (mini-frame) window. You can provide a custom CPaneFrameWnd-derived class that will be used when CPane::CreateDefaultMiniframe is called.

CPane::StretchPaneDeferWndPos

Stretches the pane vertically or horizontally based on docking style.

virtual int StretchPaneDeferWndPos(
    int nStretchSize,
    HDWP& hdwp);

Parameters

nStretchSize
[in] The amount, in pixels, to stretch the pane. Use a negative value to shrink the pane.

hdwp
[in] Not used.

Return Value

The actual amount, in pixels, that the pane was stretched.

Remarks

If necessary, this method modifies nStretchSize to ensure that the pane does not exceed size limits. These limits are obtained by calling CPane::GetAvailableStretchSize and CPane::GetAvailableExpandSize.

CPane::ToggleAutoHide

Toggles auto-hide mode.

virtual void ToggleAutoHide();

Remarks

Call this method to toggle auto-hide mode. A pane must be docked to a main frame window in order to be switch to auto-hide mode.

CPane::UndockPane

Removes the pane from the dock site, default slider, or mini-frame window where it is currently docked.

virtual void UndockPane(BOOL bDelay = FALSE);

Parameters

bDelay
[in] If FALSE, the framework calls CBasePane::AdjustDockingLayout to adjust the docking layout.

Remarks

Use this method to programmatically undock a pane.

CPane::UpdateVirtualRect

Updates the virtual rectangle.

void UpdateVirtualRect();
void UpdateVirtualRect(CPoint ptOffset);
void UpdateVirtualRect(CSize sizeNew);

Parameters

ptOffset
[in] A CPoint object that specifies an offset by which to shift the pane.

sizeNew
[in] A CSize object that specifies a new size for the pane.

Remarks

The first overload sets the virtual rectangle by using the current position and size of the pane.

The second overload shifts the virtual rectangle by the amount that is specified by ptOffset.

The third overload sets the virtual rectangle by using the current position of the pane and the size that is specified by sizeNew.
