Description:: reflect changes with MAXBMPFileIcon class***

This object controls the overall operation of the individual CUI Frames (the name given to the windows that contain toolbars, menus, the command panel, etc.). There is one instance of this CUIFrameMgr class (obtained by calling the global function GetCUIFrameMgr()). Methods of this class are available to do things like get pointers to button and status controls, and bring up the standard toolbar right click menu .

Note: Developers may use their own images on icon buttons that are managed by this class but the following guidelines must be followed:

BMP files must be put in the /UI/icons folder. This is the UI directory under the 3ds Max EXE directory. This is hard coded because it must be retrieved before 3ds Max is fully started and thus there is no configurable path for it. There is a command line option however, (-c), which specifies for 3ds Max to look in an alternate directory for the CUI file. In that case the bitmap files should be located in the same directory.

For more information on the new icon image system refer to the chapter on Icons.

Member Function Documentation

◆ GetCUIDirectory()

CoreExport const MCHAR* GetCUIDirectory ( )

Remarks: Returns the directory name of the custom user interface (CUI) file location.

◆ SetMacroButtonStates()

CoreExport void SetMacroButtonStates ( BOOL force )

Remarks: This is a very important method. It redraws all the visible CUI buttons in 3ds Max, calling the "IsEnabled" and
"IsChecked" handlers on the ActionItems associated with each button (if it has one). If a the "IsEnabled" handler returns FALSE, the button is grayed out. If the "IsChecked" handler return TRUE, the button is draw pressed in.

This method is called internally by the system on selection changes and command mode changes. This handles the majority of the cases where buttons need to be redrawn. However, if a 3rd party plug-in changes some sort of internal state that might affect the return value of an ActionItem's IsEnables or IsChecked handler, then the plug-in should call this method to update the button states. If this method isn't called, buttons may look disabled or pressed (or visa versa) when they shouldn't be. See Class ActionItem.

Parameters

force This parameter, if TRUE, tells the system to redraw the button even if its state hasn't changed since the last time it was redrawn. Normally this argument is FALSE so it only redraws the buttons that changed state.

◆ SetMode()

CoreExport void SetMode ( int md )

Remarks: This method is for internal use only.

◆ GetMode()

CoreExport int GetMode ( )

Remarks: This method is for internal use only.

◆ GetItemHwnd()

CoreExport HWND GetItemHwnd ( int id )

Remarks: Returns the window handle for the item whose ID is passed. This correspond to the method in ICustToolbar but which should no longer be called for Tool Palettes. It is now also a method of this class because the CUI system doesn't know which toolbar a particular button is on. For example, a 3ds Max user in 3.0 can drag a button from one tool palette to another. No longer then can one use the previous GetItemHwnd() method since the button has moved to a different toolbar.

Parameters

id	The ID of the control.

◆ GetICustButton()

CoreExport ICustButton* GetICustButton ( int id )

Remarks: Returns a pointer to the custom button whose ID is passed (or NULL if not found). In the CUIFrameMgr implementation of this method it loops through each toolbar that it has control over and calls ICustToolbar::GetICustButton() on it. That method returns NULL if it doesn't find the specified ID. The CUIFrameMgr keeps looping through the toolbars until it gets a non-NULL value. When it finds it it returns the ICustButton pointer.

Parameters

id	The ID of the control.

◆ GetICustStatus()

CoreExport ICustStatus* GetICustStatus ( int id )

Remarks: Returns a pointer to the custom status control whose ID is passed.

Returns a pointer to the custom status control whose ID is passed (or NULL if not found). In the CUIFrameMgr implementation of this method it loops through each toolbar that it has control over and calls ICustToolbar::GetICustStatus() on it. That method returns NULL if it doesn't find the specified ID. The CUIFrameMgr keeps looping through the toolbars until it gets a non-NULL value. When it finds it it returns the ICustStatus pointer.

Parameters

id	The ID of the control.

◆ HorizTextButtons()

CoreExport void HorizTextButtons ( BOOL b )

Remarks: This method is for internal use only.

◆ GetHorizTextButtons()

CoreExport int GetHorizTextButtons ( )

Remarks: This method is for internal use only.

◆ FixedWidthTextButtons()

Remarks: This method is for internal use only.

◆ GetFixedWidthTextButtons()

CoreExport int GetFixedWidthTextButtons ( )

Remarks: This method is for internal use only.

◆ SetTextButtonWidth()

CoreExport void SetTextButtonWidth ( int w )

Remarks: This method is for internal use only.

◆ GetTextButtonWidth()

CoreExport int GetTextButtonWidth ( )

Remarks: This method is for internal use only.

◆ SetConfigFile()

CoreExport int SetConfigFile ( const MCHAR * cfg )

Remarks: This method is for internal use only.

◆ GetConfigFile()

CoreExport const MCHAR* GetConfigFile ( )

Remarks: This returns the path to the CUI file in use. This may be a UNC name.

◆ SetImageSize()

CoreExport void SetImageSize ( int size )

Remarks: This method is for internal use only.

◆ GetImageSize()

CoreExport int GetImageSize ( )

Remarks: This method is for internal use only.

◆ GetButtonHeight()

CoreExport int GetButtonHeight ( int sz = 0 )

Remarks: Returns the bitmap button image height for the specified size.

Parameters

sz	The size to check. If 0 is passed then the current icon size is checked. One of the following values: CUI_SIZE_16 CUI_SIZE_24

◆ GetButtonWidth()

CoreExport int GetButtonWidth ( int sz = 0 )

Remarks: Returns the bitmap button image width for the specified size.

Parameters

sz	The size to check. One of the following values: CUI_SIZE_16 CUI_SIZE_24

◆ GetDefaultImageListBaseIndex()

CoreExport int GetDefaultImageListBaseIndex	(	SClass_ID	sid,
		Class_ID	cid
	)

Remarks: This method is used internally to create a MaxBmpFileIcon for a given object type. These methods retrieve the file name and base index in the file of the icon for the given object class. They are used in the constructor for MaxBmpFileIcon that takes a class ID and super class ID. This method is for internal use only.

◆ GetDefaultImageListFilePrefix()

CoreExport MSTR* GetDefaultImageListFilePrefix	(	SClass_ID	sid,
		Class_ID	cid
	)

Remarks: This method is used internally to create a MaxBmpFileIcon for a given object type. These methods retrieve the file name and base index in the file of the icon for the given object class. They are used in the constructor for MaxBmpFileIcon that takes a class ID and super class ID. This method is for internal use only.

◆ AddToRawImageList()

CoreExport int AddToRawImageList	(	const MCHAR *	pFilePrefix,
		int	sz,
		HBITMAP	image,
		HBITMAP	mask
	)

Remarks: This method is for internal use only. It is used to add images to the icon manager. The icon manager, which is used to implement the MaxBmpFileIcon class, reads all the .bmp files in the UI/Icons directory at startup time. These icons are specified by an image file and an alpha mask. The icons support two sizes. Large, which is 24 by 24 and small, which is 15 by 16. The icon manager stores the unprocessed image and alpha masks (the "raw" images). Whenever an instance of MaxBmpFileIcon needs to draw itself, it gets the image list and index of the icon in the imagelist using GetSmallImageIndex or GetLargeImageIndex.

◆ LoadBitmapFile()

CoreExport int LoadBitmapFile ( const MCHAR * filename )

Remarks: This method is for internal use only.

◆ FindAndLoadBitmapFiles()

CoreExport int FindAndLoadBitmapFiles ( const MaxSDK::Util::Path & filePath )

Remarks: This method is for internal use only.

◆ LoadBitmapImages()

CoreExport int LoadBitmapImages ( )

Remarks: This method is for internal use only.

◆ ReadConfig()

CoreExport int ReadConfig ( )

Remarks: Plug-In developers should not call this method – it is for internal use only.

◆ WriteConfig()

CoreExport int WriteConfig ( )

Remarks: Plug-In developers should not call this method – it is for internal use only.

◆ SetLockLayout()

CoreExport void SetLockLayout ( BOOL lock )

Remarks: This method is for internal use only.

◆ GetLockLayout()

CoreExport BOOL GetLockLayout ( )

Remarks: Returns TRUE if the layout is locker; FALSE if unlocked.
