Is it possible to change the size of a Windows object (in this case a
PictureBox) without calling MoveWindow?
I'm writing a plugin for Winamp, in which I want to display a smooth
bar that displays a continuously changing output value.
In this Winamp plugin I cannot use the SendMessage command because it
causes lockups with Winamp. I _can_ use SendDlgItemMess age.
The following code does the job:
MoveWindow(GetD lgItem(pitch_co ntrol_hwnd, IDC_BMP), 500, 400, out_val, 10, FALSE);
Unfortunately, MoveWindow uses SendMessage commands internally, so I
get lockups.
How can I change the size without getting any SendMessage calls?
Notes: I know I can use a ProgressBar for this, but in WinXP, they are
not smooth anymore, but drawn with blocks that are too big.
Any other ideas to display a (smooth) bar on the screen with a
changing size are also welcome...
Regards,
Theo

Hi, ive got a custom control, which i like to keep at a fixed size (or a
fixed ratio). So, during the OnSizeChanged function, i specify values
for width and height. Which in *some* cases (i dont know why only some
cases) results in stack overflow because changing the height results in
OnSizeChanged being called again.
What is the correct way of altering the size of the control after a user
has changed the controls size?

How is it possible to add 'fixed' jumps when resizing a
control? For example, the listbox will only allow you to resize it so a
full row will be displayed.
I have a segmented progress bar that I would like to only show complete
segments. Thank you!

Is this all the events?

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.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
