Since I use ownerdraw for the menu bar, the key access does not work anymore. Without ownerdraw Alt+F works for the item "&File", with ownerdraw nothing happens. What is missing here? When I process WM_MENUSELECT, wParam gives no information.
Menu creation:
HMENU hm;
HMENU winmenu = CreateMenu ();
MENUINFO mi;
mi.cbSize = sizeof (mi);
mi.fMask = MIM_BACKGROUND;
mi.hbrBack = (HBRUSH)CreateSolidBrush (RGB (70, 70, 70));
SetMenuInfo (winmenu, &mi);
UINT barFlags = MF_POPUP|MF_OWNERDRAW;
hm = CreatePopupMenu ();
AppendMenuW (winmenu, barFlags, (UINT)hm, L"&File");
AppendMenuW (hm, MF_STRING, IDM_OPENFILE, L"&Open");
...
SetMenu (hwnd, winmenu);
DrawMenuBar (hwnd);
Ownerdraw processing:
case WM_MEASUREITEM:
{
LPMEASUREITEMSTRUCT lpmi = (LPMEASUREITEMSTRUCT)lParam;
HDC hdc = GetDC (hwnd);
SIZE size;
GetTextExtentPoint32W (hdc, (PWCHAR)lpmi->itemData, wcslen ((PWCHAR)lpmi->itemData), &size);
lpmi->itemWidth = size.cx;
lpmi->itemHeight = size.cy;
ReleaseDC (hwnd, hdc);
break;
}
case WM_DRAWITEM:
{
LPDRAWITEMSTRUCT lpdis = (LPDRAWITEMSTRUCT)lParam;
if (lpdis->CtlType == ODT_MENU)
{
HDC hdc = lpdis->hDC;
HPEN oldPen = (HPEN) SelectObject(hdc, GetStockObject (DC_PEN));
HBRUSH oldBrush = (HBRUSH) SelectObject(hdc, GetStockObject (DC_BRUSH));
SetBkMode (hdc, TRANSPARENT);
if ((lpdis->itemState & ODS_HOTLIGHT) || (lpdis->itemState & ODS_SELECTED))
{
SetDCPenColor (hdc, RGB (70, 20, 20));
SetDCBrushColor (hdc, RGB (70, 20, 20));
SetTextColor (hdc, RGB (255, 255, 255));
}
else
{
SetDCPenColor (hdc, RGB (70, 70, 70));
SetDCBrushColor (hdc, RGB (70, 70, 70));
SetTextColor (hdc, RGB (255, 255, 255));
}
Rectangle (hdc, lpdis->rcItem.left, lpdis->rcItem.top, lpdis->rcItem.right, lpdis->rcItem.bottom);
DrawTextW (hdc, (PWCHAR)lpdis->itemData, -1, &lpdis->rcItem,
((lpdis->itemState & ODS_NOACCEL) ? DT_HIDEPREFIX : 0)
|DT_SINGLELINE|DT_CENTER|DT_VCENTER);
SelectObject (hdc, oldPen);
SelectObject (hdc, oldBrush);
}
break;
}
Per MSDN documentation:
Owner-Drawn Menus and the WM_MENUCHAR Message
Menus other than owner-drawn menus can specify a menu mnemonic by inserting an underscore next to a character in the menu string. This allows the user to select the menu by pressing ALT and pressing the menu mnemonic character. In owner-drawn menus, however, you cannot specify a menu mnemonic in this manner. Instead, your application must process the
WM_MENUCHAR
message to provide owner-drawn menus with menu mnemonics.
