Upgrading Toolkit Standard to Toolkit Pro -
Add intelligent menus

1. Add array of Ids that seem not very important for user.

   static UINT uHideCmds[] =
   {
       ID_FILE_PRINT, ID_FILE_PRINT_PREVIEW, ID_WINDOW_CASCADE
   };
   

2. Add to the CMainFrame::OnCreate Intelligent menu initialization:

   // Hide array of commands
   pCommandBars->HideCommands(uHideCmds, _countof(uHideCmds));
   
   // Set "Always Show Full Menus"; option to the FALSE
   XTP_COMMANDBARS_OPTIONS* pOptions = pCommandBars->GetCommandBarsOptions();
   pOptions->bAlwaysShowFullMenus = FALSE;
   

3. Add LoadCommandBars(_T("CommandBars")); to the OnCreate function for CMainFrame. This will restore the previous state of your toolbar and menus plus any customization made.

   int CMainFrame::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct)
   {
       ...
   
       // Load the previous state for toolbars and menus.
       LoadCommandBars(_T("CommandBars"));
   
       return 0;
   }
   

4. Add the OnClose message handler to CMainFrame and add SaveCommandBars(_T("CommandBars")); before the call to the base class. This will save the user's used commands.

   void CMainFrame::OnClose()
   {
       // Save the current state for toolbars and menus.
       SaveCommandBars(_T("CommandBars"));
       CMDIFrameWnd::OnClose();
   }
