See also the common options.
AddBitmap
AddBitmap(BITMAP, NUMBUTTONS)
Adds a buttons-bitmap to the toolbar. BITMAP should be a handle to the bitmap containing button images, and NUMBUTTONS should be a number specifying the number of button images in the bitmap.
Note that this function will CROAK an error if the toolbar already has an imagelist assigned to it and will not perform the bitmap assignment, since you should not use AddBitmap on a toolbar that has an imagelist assigned.
AddButtons
AddButtons(NUMBER, (BITMAP, COMMAND, STATE, STYLE, STRING) ...)
Adds buttons to the toolbar. Note that BITMAP, COMMAND, STATE, STYLE and
AddString
AddString(STRING)
[TBD]

SetButtonState
SetButtonState(BUTTON, STATE)
Sets the state for the specified toolbar button. STATE should be one or more state flags bitwise-ORed together.
State flag constants are as follows:
TBSTATE_CHECKED
The button has the TBSTYLE_CHECK style and is being clicked.
TBSTATE_ELLIPSES
The button's text is cut off and an ellipsis is displayed.
TBSTATE_ENABLED
The button accepts user input. A button that doesn't have this state is grayed.
TBSTATE_HIDDEN
The button is not visible and cannot receive user input.
TBSTATE_INDETERMINATE
The button is grayed.
TBSTATE_MARKED
The button is marked. The interpretation of a marked item is dependent upon the application.
TBSTATE_PRESSED
The button is being clicked.
TBSTATE_WRAP
The button is followed by a line break. The button must also have the TBSTATE_ENABLED state.
SetButtonWidth
SetButtonWidth(XMIN, XMAX)
Sets the minimum and maximum button widths in the toolbar control.
SetCmdId
SetCmdId(BUTTON, CMD)
Sets the command identifier of a toolbar button.
SetColorScheme
SetColorScheme(%OPTIONS)
Sets Toolbar color scheme.
%OPTIONS :
-clrBtnHighlight => COLOR.
the highlight color of the buttons.
-clrBtnShadow => COLOR.
the shadow color of the buttons.
SetDisabledImageList
SetDisabledImageList(IMAGELIST)
Sets the image list for disabled button images. Returns a handle to the previous disabled imagelist associated with the toolbar.
SetDrawTextFlags
SetDrawTextFlags(MASK, FLAG)
Sets the text drawing flags for the toolbar.
SetExtendedStyle
SetExtendedStyle(STYLE)
Sets the extended style for the toolbar. STYLE should be one or more style flags bitwise-ORed together.
Extended style flag constants are as follows:
TBSTYLE_EX_DRAWDDARROWS
This style allows buttons to have a separate dropdown arrow. Buttons
that have the BTNS_DROPDOWN style will be drawn with a drop-down
arrow in a separate section, to the right of the button. If the
arrow is clicked, only the arrow portion of the button will depress,
and the toolbar control will send a TBN_DROPDOWN notification to
prompt the application to display the dropdown menu. If the main
part of the button is clicked, the toolbar control sends a
WM_COMMAND message with the button's ID. The application normally
responds by launching the first command on the menu.
There are many situations where you may want to have only some of the
dropdown buttons on a toolbar with separated arrows. To do so, set the
TBSTYLE_EX_DRAWDDARROWS extended style. Give those buttons that will
not have separated arrows the BTNS_WHOLEDROPDOWN style. Buttons with
this style will have an arrow displayed next to the image. However, the
arrow will not be separate and when any part of the button is clicked,
the toolbar control will send a TBN_DROPDOWN notification. To prevent
repainting problems, this style should be set before the toolbar control
becomes visible.
TBSTYLE_EX_HIDECLIPPEDBUTTONS
This style hides partially clipped buttons. The most common use of this
style is for toolbars that are part of a rebar control. If an adjacent
band covers part of a button, the button will not be displayed. However,
if the rebar band has the RBBS_USECHEVRON style, the button will be
displayed on the chevron's dropdown menu.
TBSTYLE_EX_MIXEDBUTTONS
This style allows you to set text for all buttons, but only display it
for those buttons with the BTNS_SHOWTEXT button style. The TBSTYLE_LIST
style must also be set. Normally, when a button does not display text,
your application must handle TBN_GETINFOTIP to display a ToolTip. With
the TBSTYLE_EX_MIXEDBUTTONS extended style, text that is set but not
displayed on a button will automatically be used as the button's ToolTip
text. Your application only needs to handle TBN_GETINFOTIP if it needs
more flexibility in specifying the ToolTip text.
SetHotImageList
SetHotImageList(IMAGELIST)
Sets the image list for "hot" (rollover) button images. Returns a handle to the previous hot image list associated with the toolbar.
Toolbars must have the TBSTYLE_FLAT or TBSTYLE_LIST style to have hot items.
see also Win32::GUI::Toolbar::SetStyle
SetHotItem
SetHotItem(BUTTON)
Sets the hot item in a toolbar. This message is ignored for toolbar controls that do not have the TBSTYLE_FLAT style.
SetImageList
SetImageList(IMAGELIST)
Sets the image list for regular button images. Returns a handle to the previous image list associated with the toolbar. Note that this will CROAK an error if you have previously called AddBitmap() on the toolbar - you cannot use SetImageList and AddBitmap on the same toolbar.
SetIndent
SetIndent(VALUE)
sets the indentation value for the toolbar
SetInsertMark
SetInsertMark(BUTTON,[FLAG=0])
Sets the current insertion mark for the toolbar.
SetInsertMarkColor
SetInsertMarkColor(COLOR)
sets the indentation value for the toolbar
SetMaxTextRows
SetMaxTextRows(VALUE)
Sets the maximum number of text rows displayed on a toolbar button.
SetPadding
SetPadding(CX,CY)
Sets the padding for a toolbar control.
SetParent
SetParent(PARENT)
Sets the window to which the toolbar control sends notification messages.
SetRows
SetRows(ROWS,[FLAG=TRUE])
Sets the number of rows of buttons in a toolbar. Flag that indicates whether to create more rows than requested when the system cannot create the number of rows specified. Return the bounding rectangle of the toolbar after the rows are set.
SetStyle
SetStyle(STYLE)
Sets the style for the toolbar. STYLE should be one or more style flags bitwise-ORed together.
Style flag constants are as follows:
TBSTYLE_ALTDRAG
Allows users to change a toolbar button's position by dragging it
while holding down the ALT key. If this style is not specified, the
user must hold down the SHIFT key while dragging a button. Note that
the CCS_ADJUSTABLE style must be specified to enable toolbar buttons
to be dragged.
TBSTYLE_CUSTOMERASE
Generates NM_CUSTOMDRAW notification messages when the toolbar
processes WM_ERASEBKGND messages.
TBSTYLE_FLAT
Creates a flat toolbar. In a flat toolbar, both the toolbar and the
buttons are transparent and hot-tracking is enabled. Button text
appears under button bitmaps. To prevent repainting problems, this
style should be set before the toolbar control becomes visible.
TBSTYLE_LIST
Creates a flat toolbar with button text to the right of the bitmap.
Otherwise, this style is identical to TBSTYLE_FLAT. To prevent
repainting problems, this style should be set before the toolbar
control becomes visible.
TBSTYLE_REGISTERDROP
Generates TBN_GETOBJECT notification messages to request drop
target objects when the cursor passes over toolbar buttons.
TBSTYLE_TOOLTIPS
Creates a ToolTip control that an application can use to display
descriptive text for the buttons in the toolbar.
TBSTYLE_TRANSPARENT
Creates a transparent toolbar. In a transparent toolbar, the toolbar
is transparent but the buttons are not. Button text appears under
button bitmaps. To prevent repainting problems, this style should
be set before the toolbar control becomes visible.
TBSTYLE_WRAPABLE
Creates a toolbar that can have multiple lines of buttons. Toolbar
buttons can "wrap" to the next line when the toolbar becomes too
narrow to include all buttons on the same line. When the toolbar is
wrapped, the break will occur on either the rightmost separator or
the rightmost button if there are no separators on the bar. This
style must be set to display a vertical toolbar control when the
toolbar is part of a vertical rebar control.
SetToolTips
SetToolTips(TOOLTIP)
Sets the tooltip object for the toolbar. TOOLTIP should be a Win32::GUI::Tooltip object. Note that this should be called before adding buttons, otherwise tooltips will not be registered. You can set a tooltips object for the toolbar on creation with the -tooltip option.
SetUnicodeFormat
SetUnicodeFormat(FLAG)
Sets the UNICODE character format flag for the control.
EVENTS
Common events apply to most windows and controls.
ButtonClick
ButtonClick(INDEX,[DROPDOWN = 1])
Sent when the user presses a button of the Toolbar the INDEX argument identifies the zero-based index of the pressed button. If the button clicked should expand a dropdown menu, then there is a second argument that is set to 1.
