Hybrid Toolbar
Anton Oleynic, Aed Lab, Khai
Hybrid_TB class is extension to Microsoft Toolbar ActiveX 6.0. It allows you to activate VFP popups from dropdown buttons. This is useful to provide pictures, marks, separators and other menu features that are not available for built-in menus. It also allows to add ">>" button which automatically shows menu with buttons which do not fit in toolbar width and to use VFP-based customization while internal customization is not working at least for VFP.

Description
Changes and fixes: 2004.06.26 - Fixed issue with large and extra large fonts. The width of dropdown button is not always 14 pixels. This class allows you: 1) Assign imagelists and images to buttons by one line of code in Init method. 2) Replace built-in dropdown menus with VFP popup menus. You can now use such menu features as separators, pictures, marks, key labels, cascade menus and others not available for built-in dropdown menus. 3) Create menu pad buttons which act exactly like menu pads: whenever user clicks either button or down arrow it always shows a menu. This is useful when you have no default action associated with a button. 4) Add ">>" button to display toolbar buttons which do not fit in toolbar width. 5) Use "custom" VFP-based customozation dialog and to store button states in DBF not in registry. As for me, built-in customization does not work properly, at least for VFP. Currently works in VFP8 only. Instruction: Unzip to a folder and open Hybrid_TB.pjx file. Run Demo form included in project to check out the sample toolbar. See Demo form source for examples of using class features. See ReadMe.txt for details. I believe this features (except VFP popups) must be provided by ActiveX class. I made this extension only because there is no hope that MS ActiveX Toolbar will be updated soon.
