ToolBar

This control enables you to create a toolbar.

Control Styles

These control styles are available when creating a ToolBar control. Remember that the general styles disabled, group, hidden, notheme, tabstop and transparent apply to all DCX controls except the embedded Dialog and Window controls.

alpha	Control is alpha blended.
arrows	Displays a dropdown arrow on the buttons having the +v flag set.
bottom	The toolbar is auto-positioned at bottom of dialog window.
flat	Toolbar style is flat with buttons having a hot mode (hover). This style also includes the transparent style.
left	Toolbar is auto-positioned to the left side of the dialog (makes the toolbar vertical).
list	Toolbar item text is to the right of the icon.
noauto	Prevents the toolbar from being auto-positioned and resized by the parent window. The user will be responsible for the positioning and resizing of the toolbar.
nodivider	The 2 pixel line divider is not included in the toolbar.
right	Toolbar is auto-positioned to the right side of the dialog (makes the toolbar vertical).
tooltips	Toolbar items support tooltips.
top	The toolbar is auto-positioned at top of dialog window.
wrap	Toolbar can have multiple lines of buttons. Toolbar buttons "break" off to the next line when the toolbar becomes too narrow to include all buttons on the same line. The break will occur on the rightmost separator item or the rightmost button if there are no separators on the bar.
