The EX13A Example Revisited
Now we'll add a property sheet to EX13A that allows the user to change the rich edit control's font characteristics. Of course, we could have used the standard MFC CFontDialog function, but then you wouldn't have learned how to create property sheets. Figure 13-5 shows the property sheet that you'll build as you continue with EX13A.
Figure 13-5. The property sheet from EX13A.
If you haven't built EX13A, follow the instructions that begin under the EX13A Example to build it. If you already have EX13A working with the Transfer menu commands, just continue on with these steps:
- Use the resource editor to edit the application's main menu. Click on the ResourceView tab in the Workspace window. Edit the IDR_MAINFRAME menu resource to add a Format menu that looks like this.
Use the following command IDs for the new Format menu items.
| Caption | Command ID |
| &Default | ID_FORMAT_DEFAULT |
| &Selection | ID_FORMAT_SELECTION |
Add appropriate prompt strings for the two menu items.
- Use ClassWizard to add the view class command and update command UI message handlers. Select the CEx13aView class, and then add the following member functions.
| Object ID | Message | Member Function |
| ID_FORMAT_DEFAULT | COMMAND | OnFormatDefault |
| ID_FORMAT_SELECTION | COMMAND | OnFormatSelection |
| ID_FORMAT_SELECTION | UPDATE_COMMAND_UI | OnUpdateFormatSelection |
- Use the resource editor to add four property page dialog templates. The templates are shown here with their associated IDs.
Use the IDs in the table below for the controls in the dialogs. Set the Auto Buddy and the Set Buddy Integer properties for the spin button control, and set the Group property for the IDC_FONT and IDC_COLOR radio buttons. Set the minimum value of IDC_FONTSIZE to 8 and its maximum value to 24.
Use ClassWizard to create the classes CPage1, CPage2, CPage3, and CPage4. In each case, select CPropertyPage as the base class. Click the Change button in ClassWizard's New Class dialog to generate the code for all these classes in the files Property.h and Property.cpp. Then add the data members shown here.
| Dialog | Control | ID | Type | Data Member |
| IDD_PAGE1 | First radio button | IDC_FONT | int | m_nFont |
| IDD_PAGE2 | Bold check box | IDC_BOLD | BOOL | m_bBold |
| IDD_PAGE2 | Italic check box | IDC_ITALIC | BOOL | m_bItalic |
| IDD_PAGE2 | Underline check box | IDC_UNDERLINE | BOOL | m_bUnderline |
| IDD_PAGE3 | First radio button | IDC_COLOR | int | m_nColor |
| IDD_PAGE4 | Edit control | IDC_FONTSIZE | int | m_nFontSize |
| IDD_PAGE4 | Spin button control | IDC_SPIN1 |
Finally, use ClassWizard to add an OnInitDialog message handler function for CPage4.
- Use ClassWizard to create a class derived from CPropertySheet. Choose the name CFontSheet. Generate the code in the files Property.h and Property.cpp, the same files you used for the property page classes. Figure 13-6 shows these files with the added code in boldface.
- Add two data members and two prototypes to the CEx13aView class. If you use ClassView for the data members, the #include for Property.h will be added automatically.
- Edit and add code in the file ex13aView.cpp. Map the user-defined WM_USERAPPLY message, as shown here:
- Build and test the enhanced EX13A application. Type some text, and then choose Default from the Format menu. Observe the TRACE messages in the Debug window as you click on property sheet tabs and click the Apply button. Try highlighting some text and then formatting the selection.
Apply Button Processing
You might be curious about the way the property sheet classes process the Apply button. In all the page classes, the overridden OnCommand functions enable the Apply button whenever a control sends a message to the page. This works fine for pages 1 through 3 in EX13A, but for page 4, OnCommand is called during the initial conversation between the spin button control and its buddy.
The OnApply virtual override in the CPage1 class sends a user-defined message to the view. The function finds the view in an expedient way—by using a global variable set by the view class. A better approach would be to pass the view pointer to the sheet constructor and then to the page constructor.
The view class calls the property sheet's DoModal function for both default formatting and selection formatting. It sets the m_bDefault flag to indicate the mode. We don't need to check the return from DoModal because the user-defined message is sent for both the OK button and the Apply button. If the user clicks Cancel, no message is sent.

Now add the prototype for the private function Format:
void Format(CHARFORMAT &cf);
Insert the prototype for the protected function OnUserApply before the DECLARE_MESSAGE_MAP macro.
afx_msg LRESULT OnUserApply(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam);
ON_MESSAGE(WM_USERAPPLY, OnUserApply)
Add the following lines to the OnCreate function, just before the return 0 statement:
CHARFORMAT cf; Format(cf); m_rich.SetDefaultCharFormat(cf);
Edit the view constructor to set default values for the property sheet data members, as follows:
CEx13aView::CEx13aView() : m_sh("") { m_sh.m_page1.m_nFont = 0; m_sh.m_page2.m_bBold = FALSE; m_sh.m_page2.m_bItalic = FALSE; m_sh.m_page2.m_bUnderline = FALSE; m_sh.m_page3.m_nColor = 0; m_sh.m_page4.m_nFontSize = 12; g_pView = this; m_bDefault = TRUE; } Edit the format command handlers, as shown here:
void CEx13aView::OnFormatDefault() { m_sh.SetTitle("Default Format"); m_bDefault = TRUE; m_sh.DoModal(); } void CEx13aView::OnFormatSelection() { m_sh.SetTitle("Selection Format"); m_bDefault = FALSE; m_sh.DoModal(); } void CEx13aView::OnUpdateFormatSelection(CCmdUI* pCmdUI) { long nStart, nEnd; m_rich.GetSel(nStart, nEnd); pCmdUI->Enable(nStart != nEnd); } Add the following handler for the user-defined WM_USERAPPLY message:
LRESULT CEx13aView::OnUserApply(WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam) { TRACE("CEx13aView::OnUserApply -- wParam = %x\n", wParam); CHARFORMAT cf; Format(cf); if (m_bDefault) { m_rich.SetDefaultCharFormat(cf); } else { m_rich.SetSelectionCharFormat(cf); } return 0; } Add the Format helper function, as shown below, to set a CHARFORMAT structure based on the values of the property sheet data members.
void CEx13aView::Format(CHARFORMAT& cf) { cf.cbSize = sizeof(CHARFORMAT); cf.dwMask = CFM_BOLD | CFM_COLOR | CFM_FACE | CFM_ITALIC | CFM_SIZE | CFM_UNDERLINE; cf.dwEffects = (m_sh.m_page2.m_bBold ? CFE_BOLD : 0) | (m_sh.m_page2.m_bItalic ? CFE_ITALIC : 0) | (m_sh.m_page2.m_bUnderline ? CFE_UNDERLINE : 0); cf.yHeight = m_sh.m_page4.m_nFontSize * 20; switch(m_sh.m_page3.m_nColor) { case -1: case 0: cf.crTextColor = RGB(0, 0, 0); break; case 1: cf.crTextColor = RGB(255, 0, 0); break; case 2: cf.crTextColor = RGB(0, 255, 0); break; } switch(m_sh.m_page1.m_nFont) { case -1: case 0: strcpy(cf.szFaceName, "Times New Roman"); break; case 1: strcpy(cf.szFaceName, "Arial"); break; case 2: strcpy(cf.szFaceName, "Courier New"); break; } cf.bCharSet = 0; cf.bPitchAndFamily = 0; }
