toolbar control widths

hello all

in the menu customization,
toolbar control layer, color, linetype style etc,
is there a way to modify the widths of the
popup_lists?

TIA

Not with LISP or ActiveX, but you can with ARX.

 

Search for CxFixCombos16.arx

 

I wasn't aware that you could with arx. Could you furthure explain how or
where I could find more info on the subject?

Thanks,

Devin

 

I'm working on a deal to allow an external dockable toolbar control for all
of that. But I'm afraid it will be a while as I have more pressing concerns
at the moment.

Actully, I don't have any idea how to do it.
Just that all of the solutions (freebee routines
in most cases) that I have seen have all been
arx applications. You could ask in the arx
group.

Actully? <sigh>

 

Thanks Jason,

I may decide in the near furture to learn objectarx. It's pretty powerful.
I used to know C++ somewhat about 5-10 years back. I'm pretty sure I'm
going to get into visual C++ though. BTW, do you or anybody know what this
C# language is?

And if people are making corrections to the control than maybe they're
creating their own dockable dialog box controls? I talked to a really good
arx programmer that said that there wasn't any ability to create actual
autocad toolbar controls in arx. I'll ask around in the arx group about
that.

Thanks again,

Devin

 

I believe C# is for programmers who can't sing in tune.

 

I'm not sure I follow you, could you explain?

 

Sorry, that was a joke.

I just started down the .NET path, and so far I'm sticking with VB.NET
standard. From what I've read, there are only a few differences between VB,
C++, C# and Jave# in the .NET studio suite. This is due to the fact that
they are all part of the .NET Framework class library and is compiled into
the "Common Language Runtime". The C# I believe is just an upgrade to C+ &
C++. Personally since all the programs are so similar I'd look at the VB.
Besides, Standard (VB=Only) is only $125+/-, while the Professional version
is in the $500+ range or way more if you get into the Enterprise versions.
You can buy the stand-alone C++, C# but I would again go with the Visual
Studio versions. If you are an acedemic you can get greatly reduced cost
versions!!

See http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/howtobuy/choosing.aspx for information
about differences.

 

Great, I think I understand, C# is then an upgrade to C++.
