Toolbar Extended Styles
This section lists the extended styles supported by toolbar controls.
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.
TBSTYLE_EX_HIDECLIPPEDBUTTONS
Version 5.81. 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_DOUBLEBUFFER
Version 6. This style requires the toolbar to be double buffered. Double buffering is a mechanism that detects when the toolbar has changed.
Note Comctl32.dll version 6 is not redistributable but it is included in Microsoft® Windows® XP or later. To use Comctl32.dll version 6, specify it in a manifest. For more information on manifests, see Using Windows XP Visual Styles.
TBSTYLE_EX_MIXEDBUTTONS
Version 5.81. 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.
