- Subject: Creating windows with WinCreateStdWindow
- Lines: 21
-
- I have a parent window defined. I then create child windows. Maybe 50%
- of the time, however, the title bar of the child window is created 'under'
- the menu bar of the parent window. That is, the child's title bar is
- hidden under the parent's menu bar, or even further 'up.'
-
- Now, one way to take care of this is to call WinSetWindowPos with
- SWP_MAXIMIZE to maximize the window. However, when I go back to a
- non-maximized window, the title bar goes back to it's
- original position. Is there a way to take care of this initial position?
- Am I doomed to WinCreateWindow?
-
- On a related note, is there any way to create a maximized window with
- WinCreateStdWindow? It states in the online docs that all WS_
- parameters affect the window style, except WS_MAXIMIZED and WS_MINMIZED
- (so why are they there??). Right now, I'm doing it as above, with
- WinSetWindowPos.
