CMultiPaneFrameWnd Class

The CMultiPaneFrameWnd class extends CPaneFrameWnd Class. It can support multiple panes. Instead of a single embedded handle to a control bar, CMultiPaneFrameWnd contains a CPaneContainerManager Class object that enables the user to dock one CMultiPaneFrameWnd to another and dynamically create multiple floating, tabbed windows.

class CMultiPaneFrameWnd : public CPaneFrameWnd

Members

Public Methods

Remarks

Most of the methods in this class override methods in the CPaneFrameWnd Class class.

If a pane uses the AFX_CBRS_AUTO_ROLLUP style and the user docks that pane to a multi-pane frame window, the user can roll up the window regardless of the style settings of the other docked panes.

The framework automatically creates a CMultiPaneFrameWnd object when the user floats a pane that uses the CBRS_FLOAT_MULTI style.

For information about deriving a class from the CPaneFrameWnd class and creating it dynamically, see CPaneFrameWnd.

Example

The following example demonstrates how to retrieve a pointer to a CMultiPaneFrameWnd object. This code snippet is part of the Set Pane Size sample.

    // CDockablePane* pBar
    CMultiPaneFrameWnd* pParentMiniFrame = 
        DYNAMIC_DOWNCAST (CMultiPaneFrameWnd, pBar->GetParentMiniFrame ()) ;
