CommandBar question.

Is it possible to align a commandbar at the bottom (instead of the top) of the screen where the input icon is?

The reason I want to do this is because, right now I am using a CommandBar for my menubar and it shows at the top. There is still an empty bar at the bottom of the screen with the input (keyboard) icon and would like to use this space to save some for the main window.

Interesting, my command bars are always (by default it seems) on the bottom of the screen. What are you doing thats different?

Ok, I finally figured out a way to add menus dynamicaly to the menu bar (SHCreateMenuBar). It's a trick. You cannot create an EMPTYBAR with SHCreateMenuBar, it won't let you add anything to it after. You have to include a resource ID. What I did is, create a menubar resource with only one HIDDEN menu. Then you can AppendMenu from SHGetMenu without any problems.

I hope this will help so that person is not going to have to go through what I have been through.

Btw, thanx all for your help (they sorted lead me to the right solution after all) even if I couldn't get much answers. :wink:
