Vista's Explorer toolbar control
-
VC6 - WTL 8 I'm currently updating my software UI to Vista and I wonder what the Windows Explorer "toolbar" is (Vista Aero style) ? I would like to show my coolbar's toolbars with the same look as the Windows Explorer one (the one with Organize, view,...). But at the moment my toolbars look like the menu one. When I drag MiniSpy over the "toolbar" (the one with Organize, view,...) it says class name is DirectUIHWND. Does it mean it is an owner drawn component or is it the famous Ribbon bar control ? The menu itself has the ToolBarWindow32 class and a different look, so that toolbar is obviously something different. Any clue of the control name, style, manifest setting,... ? Yarp www.senosoft.com

Direct UI is an internal MS library that they have not documented.

Thanks for the info Mike. Fortunately I was able to change my Coolbar's look thanks to Bjarn Viksoe's photo gallery implementation: http://www.viksoe.dk/code/photothing.htm[^]
