WM_SHOWWINDOW
The WM_SHOWWINDOW message is sent to a window when the window is about to be
hidden or shown.
WM_SHOWWINDOW
fShow = (BOOL) wParam; // show/hide flag
fnStatus = (int) lParam; // status flag
Parameters
fShow
Value of wParam. Specifies whether a window is being shown. It is TRUE if the window is being
shown or FALSE if the window is being hidden.
fnStatus
Value of lParam. Specifies the status of the window being shown. The fnStatus parameter is zero if the message is sent because of a call to the ShowWindow function; otherwise, fnStatus is one of the following values:
Value
| Meaning
| SW_OTHERUNZOOM
| Window is being uncovered because a maximize window was restored or minimized.
| SW_OTHERZOOM
| Window is being covered by another window that has been maximized.
| SW_PARENTCLOSING
| Window's owner window is being minimized.
| SW_PARENTOPENING
| Window's owner window is being restored.
|
Return Values
If an application processes this message, it should return zero.
Default Action
The DefWindowProc function hides or shows the window, as specified by the message.
Remarks
If a window has the WS_VISIBLE style when it is created, the window receives
this message after it is created, but before it is displayed. A window also
receives this message when its visibility state is changed by the ShowWindow or ShowOwnedPopups function.
The WM_SHOWWINDOW message is not sent under the following circumstances:
- When a top-level, overlapped window is created with the WS_MAXIMIZE or
WS_MINIMIZE style.
- When the SW_SHOWNORMAL flag is specified in the call to the ShowWindow function.

Nostalgia .Net |
|
.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
