Does anyone know how free IP Banners appear on top of every window, no matter what window is open. I would really like to know how to do that with some of my programs
-
NetZero and stuff actually resize the windows to make it fit, you have a smaller view of the window(IE) but at least nothing is blocked(like if it didnt resize the window)
-
The "other programs like NetZero" don't use SetWindowPos to make it on top. They create an AppBar and let Windows do all the hard work.
-
I appreciate you helping me Yonathan, but why are you telling me what they DON'T use. And what is an AppBar? How do you create one?
-
here are the API's to make an AppBar,
I dont know how to use them, but here they are.
Code:
Public Declare Function SHAppBarMessage Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "SHAppBarMessage" (ByVal dwMessage As Long, pData As APPBARDATA) As Long
Public Type APPBARDATA
cbSize As Long
hwnd As Long
uCallbackMessage As Long
uEdge As Long
rc As Rect
lParam As Long ' message specific
End Type

SHAppBarMessage
