 Environment:  VC 4.2b, Win95, WinNT

Is there any way to use CPropertySheet/CPropertyPage on a CFormView? Right
now I am useing a CTabCtrl and basically redoing all that CProperty* does.
Why? Is there a way to get it on a dialog????? I've searched and searched
and can't believe I haven't found anything on it.

Thanks
Dan

Create your own class,derived from CPropertySheet and write your own Create
function ( or override the existing one).I usually do the following way:

class CMySheet:public CPropertySheet
{
...
BOOL Create(CWnd * pParentWnd , int x,int y);
...
}

Actually I does nothing here,but this from of Create funtion is much more
convinient to call.And besides,you can add some functionality to your class.

BOOL CMySheet::Create(CWnd* pParentWnd,int x,int y) 
{
	BOOL bOK =
CPropertySheet::Create(pParentWnd,WS_SYSMENU|WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE,0);
	return bOK;
}

And here I use my sheet:

{
...
//m_pMySheet is a member variable

m_pMySheet = new CMySheet("",this);
CPropertyPage * pPage = new CPropertyPage(IDD_MY_PAGE);
CPropertyPage * pPage2 = new CPropertyPage(IDD_MY_PAGE2);
m_pMySheet->AddPage(pPage);
m_pMySheet->AddPage(pPage2);
m_pMySheet->Create(this,100,100);
...
}

IDD_* are ID of resourse(dialog) templates for pages.

Hope this helps you!

Embedding a CPropertySheet object in a CView derived object has been
dealt with in the book,Visual C++ 4 MasterClass, by WROX Press.  The
authors have derived a CPropSheetExtended class from CPropertySheet,
derived CPropSheetGeneral from that, and have a pointer
(m_pPSExample1View) to an object of that type as a member of the
CFormView-derived class (CPropSheetView). The OnCreate() and
OnInitialUpdate() handlers of CPropSheetView have been overridden.

Embedding in a dialog is also dealt with.  has been dealt with in the
book,Visual C++ 4 MasterClass, by WROX Press.  The authors have a
CDialogExtension class derived from CDialog, where they embed a property
page.


Some code follows:
View.h:

View.cpp:-
int CPropSheetView::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct)
{
   TRACE("[%s - %d] - CPropSheetView::OnCreate().....\n", __FILE__,
__LINE__);
   if (CFormView::OnCreate(lpCreateStruct) == -1)
      return -1;

   // Create the modeless property sheet. You should add the
   // property pages before creating the property sheet
   ASSERT(m_pPSExample1View);
   m_pPSExample1View->AddPage(&m_ViewGeneralPage);
   m_pPSExample1View->AddPage(&m_ViewDebugPage);
   m_pPSExample1View->AddPage(&m_ViewCplusPage);
   if (!m_pPSExample1View->Create(this, WS_SYSMENU | WS_CHILD |
WS_VISIBLE, 0))
   {
      return -1;
   }

   m_pPSExample1View->SetImageList(IDB_TVBMPIMG, 16, 1, RGB(255,0,0));

   CRect rectSheet, rectWindow;
   m_pPSExample1View->GetWindowRect(rectSheet);
   rectWindow = rectSheet;
   CalcWindowRect(rectWindow);

   // Adjust the positions of the frame and property sheet
   SetWindowPos(NULL, rectWindow.left,rectWindow.top, rectWindow.Width()
+ 10,
                rectWindow.Height(), SWP_NOZORDER | SWP_NOACTIVATE);

   m_pPSExample1View->SetWindowPos(NULL, 0, 0 ,rectSheet.Width(),
                rectSheet.Height(), SWP_NOZORDER | SWP_NOACTIVATE);

   return 0;
}

-----From: ted r lowe 

In view.h:

CPropertySheet *m_pSheet;

In view's oninitialupdate function:

CRect pgr( 0, 0, 200, 200 );
m_pSheet = new CSheet( pgr );
// do addpage() for each property page
m_pSheet->Create( this, WS_SYSMENU|WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE, 0 );

Good luck!

If you want to use a tab control on a dialog/formview, check out the web 
site listed in my signature and go to the "Visual C++" section.  Here I 
supply classes (originally posted to CompuServe by Jeremy Glick, but since 
modified) that make it fairly painless to setup tabs in a dialog.  The 
class used for the Pages is derived from CPropertyPage and can be used on a 
Tab Control or on a CPropertySheet.

I am assuming you have a good understanding of MFC. I am also assuming that 
you are using VC++ 4.x - otherwise, ignore this post.

My project does this.  Here are some code snippets:

In my CFormView derived class:

Add members for your derived CPropertySheet object (CClientSheet) and your
CPropertyPage derived objects (CPage...).  Memory allocated in
CClientView::CClientView().

class CClientView : public CScrollView
{
protected:
        CClientView();           
        DECLARE_DYNCREATE(CClientView)

public:
	CClientSheet*	m_pClientSheet;		

	CPagePersonal*	m_pPagePersonal;	
	CPageAddress*	m_pPageAddress;
        ...
};


Add pages to sheet in OnInitialUpdate() and create the property sheet:

void CClientView::OnInitialUpdate() 
{
	CScrollView::OnInitialUpdate();
	
	// add pages to property sheet
	m_pClientSheet->AddPage(m_pPagePersonal);
	m_pClientSheet->AddPage(m_pPageAddress);

	// create sheet and put in upper left corner of window
	m_pClientSheet->Create(this, WS_SYSMENU | WS_VISIBLE | WS_CHILD, NULL);
	m_pClientSheet->GetClientRect(&rect);
	m_pClientSheet->MoveWindow(rect, TRUE);
	
	// size frame to dialog size
	m_pClientSheet->GetWindowRect(&rect);
	SetScrollSizes(MM_TEXT, rect.Size());
	ResizeParentToFit(FALSE);
}

This creates a modeless property sheet, so you need to increase the height
of your CPropertySheet derived class (mine is CClientSheet) and add the
buttons yourself:

BOOL CClientSheet::OnInitDialog() 
{
	CPropertySheet::OnInitDialog();

	// get window coordinates (relative to screen)
	CRect rect;
	GetWindowRect(&rect);

	// increase height by 30
	rect.bottom += 30;

	// resize property sheet 
	MoveWindow(rect);

	// convert to client coordinates
	ScreenToClient(rect);
	rect.SetRect(0, 0, rect.Width(), rect.Height());

	CreateButtons(rect);

	return TRUE;
}


Helper function to create the buttons (m_btnSave and other buttons are of
type CButton):

void CClientSheet::CreateButtons(CRect& rect)
{
	// get font size being used by dialog
	CFont* pfont = GetFont();
	LOGFONT lf;
	pfont->GetLogFont(&lf);

	if (lf.lfWeight != 400)
	{
		m_dlgFont = new CFont;
		pfont = m_dlgFont;
		if (!pfont->CreateFontIndirect(&lf))
		{
			AfxMessageBox("Could not create font needed for buttons");
		}
	}

	// if font weight == 700, running under Win 3.1
	// need to make buttons a little wider to accomadate 
	// bold fonts 
	int btnwidth = lf.lfWeight == 700 ? 90 : 80;
	int btnheight = 25;
	int inbetween = 5;
	CRect btnrect;

	// calc position of add button
	btnrect.left = rect.left + 2 * inbetween;
	btnrect.right = btnrect.left + btnwidth;
	btnrect.bottom = rect.bottom - 5;
	btnrect.top = btnrect.bottom - btnheight;

	// create add button
	m_btnAdd.Create("&Add", WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | WS_TABSTOP,
		btnrect, this, IDC_ADDBUTTON);

	// set button fonts to same font as property sheet
	m_btnSave.SetFont(pfont, FALSE);

[additional buttons left out - change left and right values of btnrect and
call Create for each one...]
}

I also didn't want the window to be resizable minimizable or maximizable, so
in my CFrameWnd derived class (mine is actually derived from CMDIChildWnd):

BOOL CClientFrame::PreCreateWindow(CREATESTRUCT& cs) 
{
	// modify style of window frame
	cs.style &= ~WS_MAXIMIZEBOX;		// no maximize button
	cs.style &= ~WS_MINIMIZEBOX;		// no minimize button
	cs.style &= ~WS_THICKFRAME;	        // not resizable
	cs.style &= ~(LONG)FWS_ADDTOTITLE;	// allow changes to window title
	
	return CMDIChildWnd::PreCreateWindow(cs);
}

That should do it, I hope I haven't left something out.  There may be a
better way of accomplishing this, but the above works in my app.  I'd be
open to suggestions/improvements.

Doug

Check out the SnapVw example on the VC CD-ROM.
It's located on msdev\samples\mfc\general. I think it's what
you're looking for.

I got this problem two weeks ago and I got help from Bruce Miller
(thanks!). I had to put CPropertySheet on a CDialog. Here's the code:

CNiveauChargementDialog::CNiveauChargementDialog(CWnd* pParent *=NULL*/)
        : CDialog(CNiveauChargementDialog::IDD, pParent)
{
        m_PSheet = new CNiveauChargementPSheet("Sheet", this);
        
}


CNiveauChargementDialog::~CNiveauChargementDialog()
{
        delete m_PSheet;
}



BOOL CNiveauChargementDialog::OnInitDialog() 
{
        CDialog::OnInitDialog();

        m_PSheet->AddPage(&m_Vent);
        m_PSheet->AddPage(&m_Autres);

        

        CRect rectPSheet;
        
        m_PSheet->Create(this, WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE );
        m_PSheet->GetClientRect(&rectPSheet);
        m_PSheet->MoveWindow(7,
                        24,
                        rectPSheet.right,
                        rectPSheet.bottom,
                        FALSE);
        // TODO: Add extra initialization here
 
        return TRUE;  // return TRUE unless you set the focus to a
control
                      // EXCEPTION: OCX Property Pages should return
FALSE
}


REMEMBER to put in CPropertySheet::OnInitDialog the following:

BOOL CNiveauChargementPSheet::OnInitDialog()
 {
   ModifyStyleEx (0, WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT);

   return CPropertySheet::OnInitDialog();
 }

in other case it won't work.
