Frances,

Try changing its style from the ON INIT clause usign SetWindowLong( hWnd, GWL_STYLE, ... )

Antonio,

I will finish a testbed program where I can collate and test my issues in FWH and post it here.

the dialog in .rc is like this

Code (fw): Select all Collapse

MY_DIALOG DIALOGEX 1,1,500,500
FONT 9,"Verdana",0,0,0
STYLE WS_CHILD
BEGIN
    //....
END

I use this MY_DIALOG to other container like FOLDEREX.. but I'd like to just pop it as dialog (without creating a Window container).

Kind Regards,

Frances

Frances,

Are you sure that you properly tested SetWindowLong( hWnd, GWL_STYLE, ... ) from the ON INIT clause ?

Frances,

Here this works fine

Code (fw): Select all Collapse

PROCEDURE uDialog01b()

 LOCAL oDlg1, oDlg2
 LOCAL oGet, uVar := Space(10)

   DEFINE DIALOG oDlg1 RESOURCE 'MY_DIALOG'

   REDEFINE GROUP ID 1001 OF oDlg1 TRANSPARENT

   REDEFINE SAY ID 1002 OF oDlg1 TRANSPARENT

   REDEFINE GET oGet VAR uVar ID 1003 OF oDlg1

   ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg1 NOWAIT ;
      ON INIT oDlg1:Hide()
      
   DEFINE DIALOG oDlg2
   
   ACTIVATE DIALOG oDlg2 ;
      ON INIT ( oDlg2:SetSize( oDlg1:nWidth, oDlg1:nHeight ),;
                oDlg2:Center(),;
                uChangeParent( oDlg1, oDlg2 ), oDlg1:End() )
   
RETURN

Antonio,

If that is the approach, the procedure uDialog01a() could be much better... ??
