#popup child window
I have a small button on my formview. By clicking the button, I want a
window to be created and covered the small button. And by clicking the new
window or anywhere in the formview, the new window will be closed. (I want a
behaviour similar to those popup calendar found in some popular Personal
Information Manager). I have used the CreateEx with WS_CHILD and parent window
= the formview! (I use WS_CHILD because I want the new window to move along
with the parent window and also the color of the caption bar of the formview
won't change when the new window is clicked)
The problem here is: when the new window first shown on the screen it
did covered the small button but if I moved the cursor to the area where the
new window and button overlapped the WM message still goes to the button and
if I click that area the button is no longer hidden by the new window instead
the button covered the new window!
Can someone give me an idea why is this happening and what is the workaround?
Thanks
