- This may be a relatively easy answer, but I want to capture mouse button
- clicks on my window. I've done this by processing WM_BUTTON1DOWN and
- I do get the coordinates I want.
-
- But, when I do this, the title bar for my window loses the focus
- (grays out). When this happens, I can't use ALT-F, etc key
- combinations to navigate the menus until I explicitly click on the
- title bar (or menu bar) again.
-
- So, how do I make sure that the window retains the focus?
-
- Any help appreciated - email or news postings (may help others).
- Pete
