I can enable the print dialog to show the option to print the selection by pInfo->m_pPD->m_pd.Flags &= ~PD_NOSELECTION; in OnPreparePrinting() just before the DoPreparePrinting() function but if you select the option the object is still printing everything.
If you choose just to print certain pages that works.
So how do you have the CRichEditView support the print selection option?
TIA!!
According to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/commdlg/ns-commdlg-printdlga:
PD_NOSELECTION
Disables the Selection radio button.
Try:
PD_SELECTION
If this flag is set, the Selection radio button is selected.

I'm using a CListBox with Extended selection. When I click on the control, no keyboard caret is shown. Using the up and down arrows also doesn't allow me to show the caret. If I press tab and then shift tab, I can then see the caret. Using GotoDlgCtrl(&listboxCtrl) or listboxCtrl.SetFocus() also don't work.
How can I get the keyboard caret to show up on mouse click or programmatically?
Using the mouse is not supposed to display the keyboard related UI features:
For example, if the last input came from the mouse, the system will hide the keyboard cues. And, if the last input came from the keyboard, the system will show the keyboard cues.
To fake a change you can use:
PostMessage/SendMessage(hListBox, WM_UPDATEUISTATE, MAKELONG(UIS_CLEAR, UISF_HIDEACCEL|UISF_HIDEFOCUS), 0);
...or send it to your top-level window if you want to apply the change to all children.
I have created a Dialog application using MFC. I have an CComboBox in it, I am able to enter an URL of Length 60 characters. But when the length increases , I am unable to enter.
CBS_AUTOHSCROLL allows adding more characters in to combobox's edit control (simple or dropdown style).
You can set this flag when combobox is created. However there is no effect if you modify this flag after combobox creation.
In dialog resource editor, this flag appears as "Auto" in comboxbox properties.
Combo Box Styles:
CBS_AUTOHSCROLL
Automatically scrolls the text in an edit control to the right when
the user types a character at the end of the line. If this style is
not set, only text that fits within the rectangular boundary is
allowed.
I am creating a form in Visual FoxPro where the user will be entering a large number of values that are only one character values. So that the user does not have to press tab after every key press, I would like to setup the form so that once the value is entered the cursor automatically goes to the next field.
What is a good way to do this?
Make sure you have SET CONFIRM OFF
From the help file:
SET CONFIRM ON | OFF
...
OFF Specifies that the user can exit a text box by typing past the
last character in the text box. The insertion point, when it reaches
the last character in a text box, moves to the next control, and the
bell is sounded (if SET BELL is set to ON).
OFF is the default value of SET CONFIRM.
SET CONFIRM OFF also affects menu items and menu titles. If SET
CONFIRM is set to OFF, the user can choose an item from a menu or a
menu title in a menu bar by pressing the key corresponding to the
first letter of the menu item or title. (When SET CONFIRM is set to
ON, this action only selects the menu item or title.)
I made a simple form with two text boxes and verified that after typing one character, it jumps to the next text box.
Herb's answer is correct, but keep in mind that the cursor will jump to the next field in the TAB Order.
So if you entered your Textbox fields in some other order you might need to re-order the TAB's.
To verify that you have your TAB Order as you need, with the Form open in the VFP Development environment, from the Menu, click View - Tab Order - Assign Interactively. Then using your mouse, you can re-order the TAB settings for your Textboxes.
Also note that the TAB Order also includes the other Form objects such as Buttons, Grids, etc.
Good Luck
In my C# WinForm application, I use a "PrintDialog" to open a standard Window where the user can "customize" his print request (select the printer, access the properties, select to print all pages or a range, ...)
But in that window, the user cannot enter a list of pages (separated by ,) that he want to print, just as we can do within notepad's Print Dialog.
Any idea how I can get a Print Dialog like the notepad's PrintDialog ?
[EDIT] As suggested by Brian, the solution is to set the property UseEXDialog to true on PrintDialog.
That was not obvious based on the documentation, but it does the trick !
Set PrintDialog.UseEXDialog to true.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.printdialog.useexdialog(v=vs.110).aspx
Based on the documentation, it seems that you should set the AllowSomePages property to true.
Gets or sets a value indicating whether the Pages option button is enabled.
Combo boxes operate in 3 different modes: Simple, Dropdown, and Dropdown List. Dropdown (CBS_DROPDOWN) and Dropdown List (CBS_DROPDOWNLIST) are visually very similar. The only difference is that the Dropdown List style limits user input to the options available from the dropdown list while the Dropdown style doesn't impose any restrictions on user input.
With respect to keyboard navigation they operate slightly differently: While the Dropdown List style expands the dropdown list only when pressing the Arrow Down key, the Dropdown style also allows to use the Arrow Up key to expand the dropdown list. The default behavior listed under Combo Box Features explains how WM_KEYDOWN messages are handled differently:
Processes noncharacter keyboard input. In drop-down list boxes, this message is sent to the list window, which may show or hide itself, or change its current selection or caret index. In simple and drop-down combo boxes, this message is passed to the edit control. The edit control passes certain keys to the list window, such as the UP and DOWN ARROW keys and the F4 key.
My question: Is this inconsistency in keyboard navigation intentional and what is the rationale behind this design decision, or is it simply an oversight in the implementation?
