I am creating a control to mimic the vs.net MainMenu . The control inherits
from control. Is it possible to recieve windows messages when the menu
loses focus. I am running into problems after the tab key is hit, the menu
loses focus and does not respond to messages untill focus is regained. This
is not desireable since hotkeys should open menus.
Also, I would like to stay away from p/invoke for use with linux's mono
project.
Thansk for the help

Hi Ron,
Thanks for posting in this group.
I think you should override the Form's WndProc method and intercept certain
message. Then invoke your control.

Thanks for the reply, but is there a way to acheive without adding code to
the form but rather the control itself.
Mabey the control could subscribe itself to an event on the form.
Id like to be able to just add the control to any form without having to add
additional code to each form
Thanks
Ron

Hi Ron,
Thanks for your feedback.
Because your control has no focus, windows will dispatch the messages to
your control. So you had to do the dispatch in the Form.
This is the similiar as the windows mouse capture. You can use SetCapture
windows API to force all the mouse message pass to your window, actually,
once this API is called, windows will dispatch the mouse message to your
window.(In this situation, your window is the "control", while windows
system is the "Form").
Hope this make sense to you.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
