How do I know if a CommandbarControl is currently on display ?

[Jaafar Tribak]

I am working on some code that at some point needs to know if a certain(s) commandbar control is actually on display on the screen.

The visible Property is what comes to mind , but a control whose Visible Property is set to TRUE doesn't necessarly mean it is currently displayed on the screen as the commandbar where the control resides can be squeezed and squeeze the control off the screen.

Hope this make sense. I am stuck with this. Any thoughts anyone ?

Regards.

In case someone is interested, looking though the controls Properties, I just found that the Left Property of a visible Control that is off the screen conviniently returns -1 . I can take advantage of this to tell if the control is on display.
