Try with: UnregisterHotKey(...) m_hotkey1.GetHotKey(...) ... RegisterHotKey(...) m_hotkey1.SetHotKey(...) RegisterHotKey modifier flags defined in "CommCtrl.h" and "WinUser.h" are not same. The values for fsModifiers are defined in "WinUser.h".

for starters, see SetStretchBltMode if that doesn't do it, you'll need to explore the world of image resizing algorithms and resize the image yourself. i hear there are toolkits out there to help with this. =[ Abin ]= wrote: some of them(IE 6.0, etc) can even do that job absolutely perfect no method is perfect. the best you can hope for, especially when enlarging, is adequate.

The hook's thread identifier should be the same thread identifier as the thread containing the window that will receive the message. If you set the hook from some secondary thread, it might not receive the message. No shirt, no shoes, no brains, no service.

If you are using MFC, look for PreTranslateMessage(MSG *pMsg) method and tries to catch messages such as WM_LBUTTONDOWN for mouse clicks. Hope it helps

A suspicion I have is that perhaps the module is in several places on your machine. The one your process is loading is probably not the full path you are testing. You can try this topic from MSDN: "Enumerating All Modules For a Process" to determine if the module you are loading is actually from the path you suspect. If it is not indeed loaded from that specific path, then the function call will fail.

If by "useless" you mean nonresponsive, then I suggest you put the processing code in a separate thread. That way, your UI remains responsive. See this article for more.

Ok i am new to answering question but i think your asking if you have a handle can you find out whether it is a child and then get the main window. If I am right then use: BOOL IsChild(HWND hwndParent, HWND hWnd); MSDN Library Lookup for IsChild Ok so now you have checked your handle and its a child. Now you use: HWND GetParent( HWND hWnd ); MSDN Lib: GetParent I hope this helps Discovery consist of seeing what everybody has seen and thinking what nobody has thought -- Albert Szent-Györgyi Name the greatest of all the inventors: accident --Mark Twain

Hi, For most of the devices, the GDI will just delegate the drawing to the device itself because the drawing has been optimized by the manufacturer of that piece of hardware. Check the API GetDeviceCaps, it tells you if the hardware device is capable to draw the primitive, in this case, of an ellipse. Fabian

If it's to run on XP, you can Automate the shell via IShellDispatch4::ToggleDesktop - see here: http://blogs.msdn.com/robgruen/archive/2004/02/24/79294.aspx If it's not, then I think you are stuck with simulating a WIN+M key press.

WM_UNINITMENUPOPUP is exactly what I was looking for, thank you very much Mr. Michael.

windows shell scripting may help u ,but i dont know to code it :^) :confused:

Sounds like you need the (updated) Platform SDK. "The pointy end goes in the other man." - Antonio Banderas (Zorro, 1998)
