Sorry but never mind. I worked out to use ShowWindow with SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE.
Ross. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ross Levis Sent: Sunday, 27 July 2008 12:57 a.m. To: 'Borland's Delphi Discussion List' Subject: display window without focus change I need to display a small window much like a hint window, without affecting the focus of the form that activated it. Currently I have a normal form which is made Visible when required, but the main form loses focus when it appears. The Form has Enabled set to False. I assume this is possible since a hint window does not take the focus away from the activating form. Should I be using something other than a Form or are there some CreateParams I can override? Note that the window needs to move outside the bounds of the main form. Many thanks, Ross. _______________________________________________ Delphi mailing list -> [email protected] http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/delphi _______________________________________________ Delphi mailing list -> [email protected] http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/delphi
