CTaskDialog hyperlinks in vc++ - visual-studio-2010

Hi I am using CTaskDialog class in my MFC application. I am trying to customize it.
In this if i want to add hyperlinks, as of now there is no specific provision for this. But to add the buttons we can use "AddCommandControl" and can handle the button.
If I want to implement similar to this AddHyperlinkControl and want to handle can any suggest how i can achieve it. My goal is I want to handle the click event of that hyperlink. Please share your suggestions if any one tried this.

If you would want to have a hyperlinks in a dialog and would want to handle the click event on it, You should be using SysLink common control (CLinkCtrl)... Check this out -> SysLink common control

Nativescript prompt dialog select all text

I was just wondering if it was possible to have a nativescript prompt dialog select all of the text upon opening without going so far as to create an entire custom dialog. I don't see any settings when creating it, but I was wondering if someone knew of a way to do this?
Thanks in advance.
The native dialog controller or the UI components inside are private to the dialogs module, not exported for public use. Hence you will need a custom one in order to operate on the textfield.

Add a custom button in the Tabbar in Xamarin Forms

Is there any way to add a custom button in the tabbar of Xamarin.Forms, like it's seeable on the mock below?
Thanks in advance.
Cue.
You can use relative layout to add the tabs in Xaml,
If you need any coding help let me know I'll help you to design this layout.
I came across this question while looking into implementing a very similar tab bar. There is one other option I've found to do this without writing those hefty custom renders yourself. Check out Sharpnado. It provides a variety of possible customizations for a Xamarin.Forms tab bar.
There is also a blog post on implementing a few options, complete with sample code you can clone.

How to create a custom messagebox in windows phone 7 that allows for a hyperlink

I'm looking for a way to have a hyperlink that's inside my messagebox.show() be something the user can click on. Is it possible to build this behavior in if I subclass Messagebox?
EDIT: Tried to keep things simple, here is more detail.
This is not possible through the standard message box offered in wp7. The best way is to create your own message box. This is pretty simple, you can follow the example in my blog post. My blog does not explain adding a hyperlink, but this can be easily done by adding the hyperlink into the control and add another parameter to the Show method.

How to create a view for a single control?

What is the best way to create a view for a single control that I need to load into a Shell region in a Prism app. I know I can wrap the control in a UserControl, but I suspect there may be a better way.
I am working on a demo app to learn Prism 4. Each module will load a navigation button into an ItemsControl in a region in the Shell. These navigation buttons will function like the Mail, Calendar, and other buttons in Outlook.
I am creating the view in each module that will hold the module's navigation button. The simplest way to create the view seems to be to wrap it in a UserControl. My question is this: Is there a better way to do it? Thanks for your help.
If you need graphical control, what you are doing is the way to go. If you find yourself making all of the buttons look the same (copy - pasting) you might find that a menu registration service is the way to go.
You'd have a service like IMenuService that you register with your container and modules can come around and register menu items to. You can then create buttons for the module. I've provided a sample for this here:
http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/376992/CAGMenus.zip
Your question, though, seems to be about whether or not you need to wrap a control in a UserControl to register them with a region? If that's the question, I believe the answer is no, although you might amend your question to tell us what you are running up against that makes you think this.
I ended up wrapping the control in a UserControl, and it seems to work fine. I am still interested in seeing if there is a better way to load the button, so I will hold this question open for a few days.
Edit 02/22/2011: I tried using a control without a UserControl wrapper, and I got the following error:
Library project file cannot specify ApplicationDefinition element.
I wrapped the control in a UserControl and the error went away.

Assuming Outlook<2007, you add a new button to the explorer/inspector via CommandBars.Add("foo", Type:=msoControlDropdown) and add entries to the drop-down via myDropdown.Add("bar").
See also the reference for CommandBarComboBox.
You can't populate it on click though, you have to find other suitable events for that, e.g. Explorer.SelectionChange.
On Outlook >= 2007 you need to customize the ribbon which is a bit more writing work. Customizing the Ribbon in Outlook 2007 is a good introduction into that.
To create a new mail item use myOlApplication.CreateItem(olMailItem) or myMailFolder.Items.Add(), set it up as needed and show it in an inspector via e.g. myMailItem.Display().
Sound like you are looking for a split button. Unfortunately the API does not expose that.
You can hack up a Popup under the button which is a poor attempt of a split button.
