STATIC
Windows control, which
paints a sunked or raised line. It's that very nice layout gadget you need
to separate groups of controls, but is difficult to get right using the
standard controls.
To use it, place a static control (label) on your dialog.
Add a member variable to your dialog implementation file...
CBevelLine m_ctlBevel
In the OnInitDialog()
event handler, add the following line:
LRESULT OnInitDialog(UINT /*uMsg*/,
WPARAM /*wParam*/,
LPARAM /*lParam*/,
BOOL& /*bHandled*/)
{
...
m_ctlBevel.SubclassWindow(GetDlgItem(IDC_BEVEL1));
...
}
The control draws a horizontal line if the width is larger than
the height, otherwise a vertical line is drawn.
Use the m_bSunken
variable to control whether to
draw a sunked or raised line.
Notes
Someone noted that it is possible to create a similar
control just by using the Picture control with a height
of 1 pixel.
Unfortunately the Picture control is subject to automatic
resizing when a large font is used.
