new project need help moving windows

Hi all,

I wanted to make something usefully for work while I have some downtime


I have two monitors and i wanted to put some extra buttons up at the top of each window ( by the min Max and close) that would help me move the window over to the other monitor or back or expand it across both

I saw a program that did it but i would much rather make my own

Example:

Im not even sure where to begin with this

I guess ill need to poll all the open windows then inject this code some how

any ideas would be greatly appreciated

This could help you!!

but i want to added to windows that are not my application

infact to all the windows that are currently up

Post.BUMP;

no one?

I can only tell you that you ought to start with a search on creating shell extensions for windows in C#.

I don't know much more than that. :sick:

Here's a start:

You need to subclass every window and handle any WM_NCPAINT messages. You should receive a handle to the DC of the window's non-client area, which you can then paint to.
