Odd-Shaped Visual C++ Forms

[OneSource]

Hi,

I've been searching the web, in vain I might add, for information/examples on how to create odd-shaped forms in Visual C++. I found info about doing this in VB, but zilch on how to do it in Visual C++. It's got to be possible, but how? Does anybody know how to do it?

Thanks in advance.

Pretty much the same way, using the SetWindowRgn function, and all the rest of them

Try this (add it to the switch statment in your WinProc procedure)

case WM_CREATE:
		{
			HRGN hRgn = CreateEllipticRgn(100,100,500,500);
			SetWindowRgn( hWnd, hRgn, TRUE );
			return 0;
		}

		case WM_LBUTTONDOWN:
			SendMessage( hWnd, WM_CLOSE, 0 , 0);
			return 0;
