It appears exactly as you would expect if it was an MDI child window, but its not, and the parent isnt an MDI window!
I was just thinking though, and I was wondering if it might actually be something in the creation of the child, rather than the showing of it. Like maybe it needs a taskbar button to appear outside the main window.

Parent->child relationship always imposes clipping. There's also owner->owned relationship, but AFAIR, you can't change that after creation. For example, dialogs are usually owned by main window.

Hi,
I have just recently started a project in MFC/Visual C++. As far as my windows programming experience goes I have done a bit of plain C, as well as a lot of Visual Basic. I'm not having too much trouble grasping the C++ language, but what I do have trouble understanding is MFC and how I extend upon it. For example the app I am developing just has a dialog box, and I want to write code to execute when the user presses the minimise button on the dialog box. I believe this can be done through CMyAppDlg::OnPaint with a check of IsIconic, but where do I find out other things like this? Is there a proper MFC reference that explains things in simpler terms and what they canbe used for? I'm just getting a bit lost, it was a lot easier when each dialog box or window I created in C had its own message loop.
Kind Regards,
Ross Cousens

You can emulate this by catching the message before MFC gets to it, but the short answer is use the msdn. msdn.microsoft.com if you don't have it on your PC.
And ask here, of course.
By the way, I believe it's better to catch the minimize action somewhere other than OnPaint, I believe there is a message when the window state is changing, I'd go for that.

Use <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/sysinfo/time_9xyd.asp">SetSystemTime</a>. In NT/2000/XP, you'll need specific rights.

Okiday.. i've been studying these things all day today, got some general quesitons again, plz help a newbie out..
1) After you create a CSplitterWnd in MainFrame and call CreateView() to put in the views, is it impossible to change the views in the splitterwnd? (the documentation in msdn seems to say this -"All panes of a static splitter window must be created before the framework displays the splitter.")
2) Is it a better idea to create my own classes derived from CFrameWnd, and override each of their OnClientCreate() functions? And if so, how do I make put those CFrameWnds into the same spot where the current MainFrame is?
I was hoping to dynamically specify what CFormView to put in the top pane, and which to put in the bottom frame.
I'm not really trying to change the 'view' that is built in tho.. im really trying to display different forms in a split window
thanks in advance for any help

Where do I get the image list for the icons associated with each application on a current system?
I have a CListView and would like to display files w/ their associated icons. Do I have to enumerate(???) each exe/dll and extract the resources manually or is there an easier way...?(I hope)
Thanx in advance!
p.s-I Just stumbled upon the CShellList does this class/documentation explain how this id done...? I guess i'll find out.

I think the WIN32 function SHGetFileInfo should do the work.

I dunno if this is the appropriate forum for this kinda of comment, but I agree with you...
Joaquín M López Muñoz knowledge of templates saved me hours of reading and made my code half the size it probably would have been. Definetly the most challenging question/problem i've ever encountered.
Kudos Joaquín M López Muñoz.

But being this here's CodeProject, the most powerful forums in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question, Do I feel lucky? Well do ya punk?

You are gonna make me blush  I'm but a newbie among such gurus as Tomasz, Nish, Mr. GDI-man Christian Grauss and the other CP folks we all know and love.
C++ questions are the most interesting to me because Stroustrup's brainchild is such an awesome tool and never stops surprising me. IMHO it is just out of lack of aquaintance with C++ that people consider embracing other toy languages that unfortunately are being given excessive hype lately.

How can I get a pointer to which ever window is activated, but not windows in my program? Programs such as internet explorer or paint or some other program.

You can use GetForegroundWindow()
You cannot use GetActiveWindow() cause it only returns the active window in your program.
