PRB: MFC Active Document Container May Not Hide Toolbars

ID: Q196834

The information in this article applies to:
  • The Microsoft Foundation Classes (MFC), included with:
    • Microsoft Visual C++, 32-bit Editions, version 6.0

SYMPTOMS

When you use Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 to create an Active Document Container, the toolbars associated with an Active Document Server that has lost focus may not hide correctly.


STATUS

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.


MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

  1. Create a new MFC MDI Application with Active Document Container support.


  2. Build and run the application.


  3. Insert a new Visio Standard 5.0 object into an MDI child window.


  4. Select New from the File menu to open another MDI child window.


RESULTS: Notice that the new MDI child window has focus and that the toolbars associated with Visio are not hidden. The menu does change, but the toolbars remain visible allowing the user to click on buttons that are not relevant for the currently active window.
