List Control doesn't refresh when dialog box disappears
-
I'm using Visual C++ 6 on Windows XP. My program uses COlePropertyPage property pages. One of them has a List Control. When the user clicks a certain part of my List Control, a dialog box appears, and when the user is done with it, it disappears. However, if the dialog box is moved over part of my List Control, when the box is closed that part is erased and set to gray, the color of the underlying COlePropertyPage. I want the List Control to refresh itself when the dialog box disappears. The control will refresh itself if another window is placed on top and then removed. Of course, I don't want the user to have to do that! The List Control should refresh immediately when the dialog disappears. I'm trying Invalidate(), UpdateWindow() and RedrawItems() one at a time and all three at once. It makes no difference. Actually, I note that my DrawItem function is called even without calling those repaint functions. Calling them just repeats the DrawItem function being called. However, the DrawItem call has no effect. Also I've tried setting the control to dirty with COlePropertyPage::SetControlStatus(). Nothing works. Thanks for any help..
