Example code for the id ID_VOLUMEBUILDER_VOLUMETYPE in Ovolumebuilder

Note that this is not the actual code from the Ovolumebuilder file.

This code is just an example to show you how to add a similar control to your own description.

Resource File Code (Ovolumebuilder.res)


LONG  ID_VOLUMEBUILDER_VOLUMETYPE
{
                        
    CYCLE 
    {         ID_VOLUMEBUILDER_SDF; 
        ID_VOLUMEBUILDER_FOG; 
        ID_VOLUMEBUILDER_VECTOR; 
    }
}
            

Header File Code (Ovolumebuilder.h)

#ifndef OVOLUMEBUILDER_H__

  ID_VOLUMEBUILDER_VOLUMETYPE = 1000,  //First ID should start at 1000
    ID_VOLUMEBUILDER_SDF = 1,
    ID_VOLUMEBUILDER_FOG = 2,
    ID_VOLUMEBUILDER_VECTOR = 3,
};
#endif	// OVOLUMEBUILDER_H__
