Shortcut bar style

Description

SEC_TABBAR_VERT

Orients the shortcut bar vertically. This is the default orientation.

SEC_TABBAR_HORZ

Orients the shortcut bar horizontally. This style is yet to be implemented.

SEC_TABBAR_BARCURSOR

Uses a hand cursor for the bar objects, similar to MS Outlook. The default behavior is to use the arrow cursor.

SEC_TABBAR_NOANIMATE

By default bar switching is animated. Setting this style disables the animation.

SEC_TABBAR_NOHILIGHT

Moving the cursor over any of the bars in the shortcut bar will highlight it. Setting this style disables this effect.

SEC_TABBAR_ CNTXTMENU

When this style is set, right-clicking the shortcut bar will result in a WM_TABBAR_CNTXTMENU message being sent to the owner window. The wParam of the message is the index of the active bar while the IParam contains a menu handle that the shortcut bar displays upon return. Handling this message allows the shortcut bar's parent to customize the context menu.
