Can we assume you called Shell_NotifyIcon() and are being notified correctly? Have you seen these other examples:

http://www.codeproject.com/shell/StealthDialog.asp
http://www.codeproject.com/shell/ctrayiconposition.asp
http://www.codeproject.com/shell/minimizetotray.asp
http://www.codeproject.com/shell/YaTrayMin.asp

Thanks, i'll try these examples (i've tried some of them).
anyhow, i used 'Shell_NotifyIcon()' to get the icon into the systray.
but, i did not recevied notifications!
Code i'm using:
******************************
#define WM_uSYSTRAY_ICON (WM_USER+20)
#define uSYSTRAY_ICON_ID (WM_USER+21)

...
...
m_NID.cbSize = sizeof(NOTIFYICONDATA);
strcpy(m_NID.szTip, "SysTray icon");
m_NID.uCallbackMessage = WM_uSYSTRAY_ICON;
m_NID.hWnd = this->m_hWnd;//this is a MFC created dialog ': public CDialog'
m_NID.uID = uSYSTRAY_ICON_ID;
m_NID.hIcon = (HICON)AfxGetApp()->LoadIcon(IDR_MAINFRAME);
m_NID.uFlags = NIF_TIP | NIF_ICON | NIF_MESSAGE;
Shell_NotifyIcon(NIM_ADD, &m_NID);
****************** end of code

any ideas?

Clipping a Dialog Window

I have been trying to get a dialog window displayed big and then small, but the SetWindowPos seems to do nothing since I added resize code.

I have a divider to control the clipping of the lower section of the dialog. See code below (Called via push button to hide/show details)

void CEditDlg::OnBnClickedAdvanced()
{
	static bool m_bExpand = false; 
	if (rcLarge.IsRectNull())
	{
		// Large window 
		GetWindowRect(rcLarge); 

		// Small window 
		CWnd* pWndDivider = GetDlgItem (IDC_DIVIDER); 
		pWndDivider->GetWindowRect (rcDivider); 

		rcSmall = rcLarge; 
                // Small windos cuts off at the divider
		rcSmall.bottom = rcDivider.top; 
		//Init the controls for re-sizing
		InitResizerLarge();
	}

	if(m_bExpand) 
	{ 
		SetWindowPos(NULL, 0, 0, rcLarge.Width(), rcLarge.Height(), SWP_NOMOVE | SWP_NOZORDER); 
		m_origSize = CPoint(rcLarge.Width(), rcLarge.Height());
		m_bExpand = false; 
		m_cAdvancedButton.SetWindowText("Hide Details");
	} 
	else 
	{ 
		SetWindowPos(NULL, 0, 0, rcSmall.Width(), rcSmall.Height(), SWP_NOMOVE | SWP_NOZORDER); 
		m_origSize = CPoint(rcSmall.Width(), rcSmall.Height());
		m_bExpand = true; 
		m_cAdvancedButton.SetWindowText("More Details");
	}
}

ANy way to get this code to toggle between big/small dialog; i.e. clip the window at the divider.

i think you can control the cash register via the Serial port, you just write the command to the port, that will take care of remaining...

Ninety-eight percent of the thrill comes from knowing that the thing you designed works, and works almost the way you expected it would. If that happens, part of you is in that machine.

Already doing this - but I still want to modify the default devices..

Reason: We are sending the playback to an external device, and a message box plonk arriving there might blow away some ears.
The PC is set up for this purpose, but we would like to (a) set sound playback for our application to a specific device and (b) verify that default playback isn't there.

you'll have to scale the values down to 8bpc. there aren't many displays out there that can handle 12bpc data.

Thanks for reply.

I have given the japanese language in Dialog control it doesn't displayed(just copy paste from some other resource).

I didn't used any string table, becase i read the language string from ini file.

No,

But i download some projects from codeproject and Unicode.org sites, that projects are running in my machine and display the japanese language correctly. They used Japanese & Spanish language (used dll & string table). In that article we used to Ms sans serif means it supports all language(unicode enabled).

If you try to select a font for CDialog object for example, that font has to be installed... as far as I know ....
