Default Toolbar Characteristics

By default toolbars will have the following characteristics: It will be a horizontal bar (peBarPosition=xtpBarTop)It can be moved, floated and docked (pbEnableDocking=True, pbGripper=True)It's width is determined by the number of items in the bar (i.e., it is not stretched) and multiple toolbars can share the same row (peStretched=stNoStretch)It will dock itself to the right of a previous toolbar that is in the same position (pbDockNextTo=True)It can be closed (pbCloseable=True)It can be edited (pbCustomizable=True).When needed, it wraps to the next line (pbHideWrap=False)

The Toolbar Creation Process

When the commandbar system is created, the message CreateComInstance is sent to all cCJToolBar objects. This method is used to:

1. Create the COM toolbar.
2. Send the appropriate COM messages.
3. Send the OnCreate event. This can be used by developers to customize the creation process
4. Create all child menu objects by sending CreateComInstance to all child objects.

Once the COM object is created, it remains statically bound to its cCJToolBar proxy object.
