Editing a Container Object

Start with the project you created in Collecting Container Events.

Add the following popup menu structure to the main menu you created in Implementing the Container - Initializing, Creating and Freeing

Edit &Object 
&Line   with ID = IDM_EDITOBJECT_LINE 
&Square   with ID = IDM_EDITOBJECT_SQUARE 
&Rect   with ID = IDM_EDITOBJECT_RECT 
&Circle   with ID = IDM_EDITOBJECT_CIRCLE 
&Ellipse   with ID = IDM_EDITOBJECT_ELLIPSE 
P&olyline   with ID = IDM_EDITOBJECT_POLYLINE 
&Bezier   with ID = IDM_EDITOBJECT_BEZIER 
&Arc   with ID = IDM_EDITOBJECT_ARC 
&Text   with ID = IDM_EDITOBJECT_TEXT

Add the following code to the WndProc function, just before the "return 0L ;" of the WM_CREATE message:
```
EnableMenuItem ( GetMenu ( hWnd ), 2, MF_BYPOSITION | MF_GRAYED ) ; 
```
Add the following lines to the WndProc function, after the EnableMenuItem function call in the "case IDM_FILE_OPEN" of the WM_COMMAND message:
```
EnableMenuItem ( GetMenu ( hWnd ), 2, MF_BYPOSITION | MF_ENABLED ) ; 
```

Add the following functions before the OnOpen function definition:

Add the following code to the WndProc function, after the statement "return 0L ;" of the case IDM_DRAWOBJECT_TEXT of the WM_COMMAND message:

case IDM_EDITOBJECT_LINE: 
   OnEditObjectLine ( pContainer, &hBitmap ) ; 
   return 0L ; 
case IDM_EDITOBJECT_SQUARE: 
   OnEditObjectSquare ( pContainer, &hBitmap ) ; 
   return 0L ; 
case IDM_EDITOBJECT_RECT: 
   OnEditObjectRect ( pContainer, &hBitmap ) ; 
   return 0L ; 
case IDM_EDITOBJECT_CIRCLE: 
   OnEditObjectCircle ( pContainer, &hBitmap ) ; 
   return 0L ; 
case IDM_EDITOBJECT_ELLIPSE: 
   OnEditObjectEllipse ( pContainer, &hBitmap ) ; 
   return 0L ; 
case IDM_EDITOBJECT_POLYLINE: 
   OnEditObjectPolyline ( pContainer, &hBitmap ) ; 
   return 0L ; 
case IDM_EDITOBJECT_BEZIER: 
   OnEditObjectBezier ( pContainer, &hBitmap ) ; 
   return 0L ; 
case IDM_EDITOBJECT_ARC: 
   OnEditObjectArc ( pContainer, &hBitmap ) ; 
   return 0L ; 
case IDM_EDITOBJECT_TEXT: 
   OnEditObjectText ( pContainer, &hBitmap ) ; 
   return 0L ;

Compile and run the project by selecting Build->Rebuild Solution from the menu, and then Debug->Start Without Debugging.
