Add Separator to the WinBatch Studio Toolbar
Question:
Anyone know how to add a separator to the Studio toolbar? It's gotta be something simple but I'm just too dense.Answer:
This information is outdated for current versions of WinBatch Studio.Simple? hmmm... There may be a simple way, but the only way I've found so far is to directly edit the toolbar in the registry. No guts - no glory, right? If you want to give it a try...
Edit the registry and navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wilson WindowWare\WinBatch Studio\Toolbars
The Keys listed under 'Toolbars' basically define the Studio environment. Now, I would assume that Info-Bar0 - Info-Bar8 are defined the same on all installations since they are the default ones. These are what to focus on. Here's a quick run-down...
~ Info-Bar0 = Status Bar ~ Info-Bar1 = Top Screen Toolbar Area ~ Info-Bar2 = Botton Screen Toolbar Area ~ Info-Bar3 = Output Window ~ Info-Bar4 = Watch Window ~ Info-Bar5 = File Toolbar ~ Info-Bar6 = Window Toolbar ~ Info-Bar7 = Debug Toolbar ~ Info-Bar8 = Tools Toolbar
Look are Info-Bar6 (it's the shortest for example). The Buttons value defines what buttons are shown on the specific bar. The numbers are defined in groups of 5, each group defining a button. In this example they are:
~ 30 E1 00 00 00 = New Window ~ 35 E1 00 00 00 = Split ~ 32 E1 00 00 00 = Cascade ~ 33 E1 00 00 00 = Tile Horizontally ~ 34 E1 00 00 00 = Tile Vertically
And here, finally, is your answer... To add a break in a tool bar, add a group of all 0's in between the desired buttons... ~ 00 00 00 00 00 = Break between buttons.
Keep in mind that you're messing with the registry. Be very careful and export a backup copy before making any changes.
One last point - Don't make any changes while Studio is open. Studio holds the settings in memory, then writes the changes when it's shutdown.
