form on top?

[nkad]

I know how to make a form show over top of all other windows but how do i make it show over a game window? SetWindowPos() does not do this.

Any ideas?

Perhaps the BringWindowToTop() or the SetForegroundWindow () API?

Well it depends on the game but most big games use DirectX which means that there are surfaces in use... you cannot show a window over a DX surface. You can do something to make it look like it's bleeding through, but as soon as you click the program, the game window will minimize and your program will get focus.

Oafo, yes that is exactly what i'm looking for! could you please give me some idea of how to do this? Thank you vary much
