- Well, again I`m thinking about a new project, and I don`t
- know how to realize it. First of all, the examples given are ment
- as examples and not as that, what I really plan to do. ;-)
-
- So now the questions:
- a) I wanna get informed, if the user (actually me) clicks on a
- system-gadget. Example: If the User clicks on the Screen2Front
- gadget, not the Screen2Front function shall be invoked, but
- a screenselection list will be displayed. To perform this,
- I must know when a system gadget is clicked and the information
- has to be `stolen` from the system, so that the system can`t
- perform the original function.
- b) Belonging to this, is there a way of telling the system that
- one of it`s gadgets is clicked, when it is`nt really.
- c) I want to send messages to a window (better it`s controlling
- process). e.g. I`ve got the address of a window, and want to tell
- it that it should close.
- d) I also want to add a gadget in the menubar of any window
- e.g. a gadget wich will call DisplayBeep() when pressed. The point
- is that this gadget should be attached to any window (not only
- the windows controlled by my specific task. For example
- to support a minimize/maximize function for OS < 2.0
- e) How can I program a window-iconify mechanism. To be more
- precise, what have I got to do, that the window-owner still
- could draw into his window, even though it`s not displayed anymore.
-
- Answers to one ore more (even better: all ;-]) questions will leed
- to extrem happiness. C-source will be welcomed.
- Thanks in advance.
