copied!<p>This is how I got it to work:</p> <h3>First</h3> <p>, as the others said, create an invisible toolbar next to your main toolbar (I'm using the usual names based on AppWizard's names):</p> <pre><code>MainFrm.h: class CMainFrame { //... CMFCToolBar m_wndToolBar; CMFCToolBar m_wndInvisibleToolBar; //... }; MainFrm.cpp: int CMainFrame::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct) { //... // Normal, visible toolbar if(m_wndToolBar.Create(this, TBSTYLE_FLAT, WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | CBRS_TOP | CBRS_GRIPPER | CBRS_TOOLTIPS | CBRS_FLYBY | CBRS_SIZE_DYNAMIC)) { VERIFY( m_wndToolBar.LoadToolBar( theApp.m_bHiColorIcons ? IDR_MAINFRAME_256 : IDR_MAINFRAME) ); // Only the docking makes the toolbar visible m_wndToolBar.EnableDocking(CBRS_ALIGN_ANY); DockPane(&m_wndToolBar); } // Invisible toolbar; simply calling Create(this) seems to be enough if(m_wndInvisibleToolBar.Create(this)) { // Just load, no docking and stuff VERIFY( m_wndInvisibleToolBar.LoadToolBar(IDR_OTHERTOOLBAR) ); } } </code></pre> <h3>Second: The images and toolbar resources</h3> <p><code>IDR_MAINFRAME</code> and <code>IDR_MAINFRAME_256</code> were generated by AppWizard. The former is the ugly 16 color version and the latter is the interesting high color version.<br> Despite its name, if I remember correctly, even the AppWizard-generated image has 24bit color depth. The cool thing: Just replace it with a 32bit image and that'll work, too. </p> <p>There is the invisible toolbar <code>IDR_OTHERTOOLBAR</code>: I created a toolbar with the resource editor. Just some dummy icons and the command IDs. VS then generated a bitmap which I replaced with my high color version. Done!</p> <h3>Note</h3> <p>Don't open the toolbars with the resource editor: It may have to convert it to 4bit before it can do anything with it. And even <em>if</em> you let it do that (because, behind Visual Studio's back, wou're going to replace the result with the high color image again, ha!), I found that it (sometimes?) simply cannot edit the toolbar. Very strange.<br> In that case I advise to directly edit the .rc file.</p>
