how to find out what time a control is created and VISIBLE?
-
as you know, when a control (e.g a rich edit control) is created, its parent recieves a WM_CREATE. but at that time, the control is not visible yet. is there a way (e.g a special message) to fine out when a child window is create and visible?
Thank you masters!

What about
IsWindowVisible()?"Old age is like a bank account. You withdraw later in life what you have deposited along the way." - Unknown

Have a look at WM_NCPAINT, or WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING - the first will be the first hint of drawing to the screen, and the 2nd may be handy if you look at the fine detail of the changes being made. Iain.
In the process of moving to Sweden for love (awwww). If you're in Scandinavia and want an MVP on the payroll (or happy with a remote worker), give me a job!

Is this helpful - Waiting until the dialog box is displayed before doing something.[^] You can easly modify that for your control. Regards, Jijo.
