ToolBar Control Styles

The latest version of this topic can be found at ToolBar Control Styles.

CMFCToolBarButton Class](../Topic/CMFCToolBarButton%20Class.md) has a set of style flags that determine the appearance and behavior of the button. You can set a combination of these flags by calling CMFCToolBarButton::SetStyle. This topic lists the style flag values and their meanings.

Property Values

The following values determine the type of button that the control represents:

TBBS_BUTTON
Standard pushbutton (default).

TBBS_CHECKBOX
Check box.

TBBS_CHECKGROUP
The start of a group of checkboxes.

TBBS_GROUP
The start of a group of buttons.

TBBS_SEPARATOR
Separator.

The following values represent the current status of the control:

TBBS_CHECKED
Check box is checked.

TBBS_DISABLED
Control is disabled.

TBBS_INDETERMINATE
Check box is in an indeterminate state.

TBBS_PRESSED
Button is pressed.

The following value changes the layout of the button in the toolbar:

TBBS_BREAK
Places the item on a new line or in a new column without separating columns.

Remarks

The current style is stored in CMFCToolBarButton::m_nStyle. Do not set a new value in m_nStyle directly, because some derived classes perform additional processing when you call SetStyles.

The visual manager determines the appearance of buttons in each state. See Visualization Manager for more information.
