Icons disapear from a CommanBar

Hi all,

I have a problem with an Outllok AddIn.

Our AddIn creates a CommandBar and adds some buttons to it.
Depending on the context of the user actions (ie which message type is
highlighted, is a contact highlighted..) some buttons
are enabled or disabled. This runs flawlessly on most of our customers
enviroments.
We now have one customer where the following problems occur:

On some or most buttons the icons are missing. The button is there and can
be used, but there is no icon.
We have a 'restore Toolbar' option in our settings dialog wich, under the
hood, removes all buttons from
the CommandBar and then adds them again. Interstingly, after each hit on the
restore-button, a different set of
Icons is displayed on the CommandBar until finally, after a non
deterministic count of tries, all icons are displayed.
This ist not quite the way we would like this to function.

The enviroment is Windows Server 2003, Terminal Server Mode, Citrix
Metaframe and Outlook 2000 SR3

Any hints are strongly appreciated...

Are they using Outlook 2000? You cannot load custom icons in add-ins for
that version, such as those loaded from a file or a resource file. You
need to use the CopyFace and PasteFace methods with built-in icons only.

You can use any custom icon as long as it's a BMP with 16x16x256 colors in
Outlook 2000 buttons but you must use PasteFace after copying the image to
the clipboard. I regularly use BMPs stored in a resource file or in the file
system for Outlook 2000 button images.

Impossible to tell from that. How are you creating the buttons, show some
sample code.

What sort of Explorer or Inspector is this on? Is WordMail involved?

What mode of operation is the user running for Outlook 2000, Internet only
mode or Corporate/workgroup mode?

Icons disapear from a CommanBar

Hi Eric.
Are they using Outlook 2000? You cannot load custom icons in add-ins for
that version, such as those loaded from a file or a resource file. You
need to use the CopyFace and PasteFace methods with built-in icons only.

That's right. I did not go into the detail here.

Outlook 2K connects to an Excahnge server.

We use the following code to put the icons on the toolbar:

void CAddin::InsertButtonFace(
_CommandBarButton *pCommandBarButton, UINT lIcon)
{
if (0 != lIcon)
{
if (OUTLOOK_XP = m_wOutlookVersion)
{
InsertButtonFacePicture(pCommandBarButton, lIcon);
}
else
{
// version less than OUTLOOK_XP - Outlook 2000
InsertButtonFaceClipboard(pCommandBarButton, lIcon);
}
}
}

Our Addin runs in different Outlook versions and m_wOutlookVersion keeps the
actual Outlook version after initialization.
Since we obviously act differnet on Outlook 2000 there might be a problem in
my function.

void CAddin::InsertButtonFaceClipboard(
_CommandBarButton *pCommandBarButton, UINT lIcon)
{
CopyIcon2Clipboard(lIcon);
try
{
pCommandBarButton-PasteFace();
}
catch (COleDispatchException *e)
{
if (e-m_scError == CdoE_CALL_FAILED)
{
e-Delete();
}
else
{
e-m_strDescription));
throw e;
}
}
// cleanup
OpenClipboard(NULL);
EmptyClipboard();
CloseClipboard();
}

Finally the copy2clipboard function.

#define ICON_SIZE_X 16
#define ICON_SIZE_Y 16

void CAddin::CopyIcon2Clipboard(UINT lIcon)
{
HICON hIcon;
ICONINFO iconInfo;
HDC hdc, hdcMem, hdcMemSrc;
HBITMAP hBitmap;
STGMEDIUM stgMedium;
COleDataSource *pClipboard;

hIcon = theApp.CRL_GetIcon(lIcon, CRL_ENABLED | CRL_SIZE_SMALL);

if (NULL == hIcon)
{
return;
}
VERIFY(GetIconInfo(hIcon, &iconInfo));

ASSERT(iconInfo.fIcon);
ASSERT(iconInfo.hbmColor);

// create transparency
hdc = ::GetDC(NULL);
ASSERT(hdc);
hBitmap = CreateCompatibleBitmap(hdc, ICON_SIZE_X, ICON_SIZE_Y);
VERIFY(DeleteDC(hdc));
hdc = NULL;
hdcMem = CreateCompatibleDC(NULL);
SelectObject(hdcMem, hBitmap);

// color with menu bg color
SelectObject(hdcMem, GetSysColorBrush(iColorMenu));
VERIFY(Rectangle(hdcMem, -1, -1, ICON_SIZE_X + 1, ICON_SIZE_Y + 1));

// aply mask
hdcMemSrc = CreateCompatibleDC(NULL);
ASSERT(hdcMemSrc);
SelectObject(hdcMemSrc, iconInfo.hbmMask);
VERIFY(BitBlt(hdcMem, 0, 0, ICON_SIZE_X, ICON_SIZE_Y, hdcMemSrc, 0, 0,
SRCAND));
SelectObject(hdcMemSrc, iconInfo.hbmColor);
VERIFY(BitBlt(hdcMem, 0, 0, ICON_SIZE_X, ICON_SIZE_Y, hdcMemSrc, 0, 0,
SRCINVERT));

// cleanup
VERIFY(DeleteDC(hdcMemSrc));
hdcMemSrc = NULL;
VERIFY(DeleteDC(hdcMem));
hdcMem = NULL;

stgMedium.pUnkForRelease = NULL;
stgMedium.hBitmap = hBitmap;
stgMedium.tymed = TYMED_GDI;

try
{
pClipboard = new COleDataSource();
ASSERT_VALID(pClipboard);
if (NULL == pClipboard)
{
DDERR(("kann kein Clipboard kriegen"));
}
else
{
pClipboard-CacheData(CF_BITMAP, &stgMedium);
pClipboard-SetClipboard();
}
}
catch (COleException *e)
{
CString str;

e-GetErrorMessage(str.GetBuffer(1024), 1024, NULL);
str.ReleaseBuffer();
e-Delete();
}
DestroyIcon(hIcon);
}

Icons disapear from a CommanBar

Good morning, Thomas. Welcome to office.developer.com.add_ins newsgroup! My
name is Jialiang Ge [MSFT].

I once handled a very similar issue, where a customer said his
CommandBarButton icon cannot be shown only in Outlook 2000. That problem
turned out to be caused by the code:

HBITMAP hSrcBmp = LoadBitmap(AfxGetResourceHandle(),

MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDB_BITMAP1));

The method LoadBitmap has been superseded by the LoadImage function because
it is incompatible with some device context. Thus, the resolution was to
replace the line with:

HBITMAP hSrcBmp = (HBITMAP)::LoadImage(GetModuleHandle(NULL),

MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDB_BITMAP1), IMAGE_BITMAP,0,0,LR_CREATEDIBSECTION);

Thomas, because you did not mention how you loaded the bitmap icon or
provided any code snippet for test, I cannot quickly figure out the reason
for this specific issue. But I suggest you read the above-mentioned thread:

http://office-outlook.com/outlook-fo...60/#msg_209360

And if the thread does not help, would you please show us some code
snippets? I'd be very happy to test it for you.

Hello Thomas

I notice your response to Eric with some code snippets after I posted my
initial reply. :-) I¡¯m starting to build an Outlook 2000 environment to
test it. Based on my experience, Thomas, I feel the problem may lie in your
code line:
hIcon = theApp.CRL_GetIcon(lIcon, CRL_ENABLED | CRL_SIZE_SMALL);
What¡¯s your implementation of CRL_GetIcon?

Below is a workable example of Copy2clipboard for Outlook 2000. I wrote &
tested it when I was dealing with the thread mentioned in my last reply. I¡¯ve
also attached its project to this reply, and you may download it with
Outlook Express or Windows Mail.

Icons disapear from a CommanBar

Heallo Jialiang,

thanks for your extensive posts on my issue.

test it. Based on my experience, Thomas, I feel the problem may lie in
your code line:
hIcon = theApp.CRL_GetIcon(lIcon, CRL_ENABLED | CRL_SIZE_SMALL);
What¡¯s your implementation of CRL_GetIcon?

We use a resource dll for whitelabeling the application which implements
the function like this:

extern "C" HICON CALLBACK CRL_GetIcon(DWORD nID, DWORD dwFlags)
{
// Tell MFC to use our own resources not those of the loading module
// (must be used for every exported function that loads resources).
#ifdef _AFXDLL
AFX_MANAGE_STATE(AfxGetStaticModuleState())
#endif

// Size?
INT cx = CrlGetSize_(dwFlags);

// Enabled or disabled icon?
LPCTSTR pszName = MAKEINTRESOURCE(dwFlags & CRL_DISABLED ? nID +1 : nID);

// Note that LoadImage() does not require a subsequent DestroyIcon() in
Win32.
// Important: If the icon can't be found, return the icon 'empty' to avoid
// program crashes when returning NULL as HICON.
hIcon = (HICON)LoadImage(
AfxGetResourceHandle(),
pszName,
IMAGE_ICON,
cx, cx,
LR_DEFAULTCOLOR);

// LoadImage fails to load 128x128 icons on some Win9X systems, so use the
64x64 as fallback.
if(!hIcon && (cx == 128))
hIcon = (HICON)LoadImage(
AfxGetResourceHandle(),
pszName,
IMAGE_ICON,
64, 64,
LR_DEFAULTCOLOR);
if(!hIcon)
hIcon = (HICON)LoadImage(
AfxGetResourceHandle(),
MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_CRL_MISC_UNKNOWN_ID),
IMAGE_ICON,
cx, cx,
LR_DEFAULTCOLOR);

// LoadImage fails to load 128x128 icons on some Win9X systems, so use the
64x64 as fallback.
if(!hIcon && (cx == 128))
hIcon = (HICON)LoadImage(
AfxGetResourceHandle(),
MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_CRL_MISC_UNKNOWN_ID),
IMAGE_ICON,
64, 64,
LR_DEFAULTCOLOR);
return hIcon;
}

The main difference in our handling seems to be that we load the icon
as an icon first and convert it to a bitmap afterwards.
We chose this approach to use a generic way to load the icons.
Maybe there is a fault in this conversion...
