CreateWindowEx question

[ragdog]

hi

I create a editbox or static field with CreateWindowEx
where can i get this coordinates can i get from resource editor?

   CONTROL "&String:", -1, STATIC, SS_LEFT | WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | WS_GROUP, 7, 32, 49, 10
   CONTROL "", 1010, EDIT, ES_LEFT | ES_AUTOHSCROLL | WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | WS_BORDER | WS_TABSTOP, 60, 30, 60, 12


i use EditSl and static from masm package!

I can tell you how to do it "by hand":
- trap a VK_LEFT, right etc message
- use MoveWindow to move your controls until you like them.

and copy this in my routine.

ragdog,

As long as you have a procedure for the dialog you create with resources, you get the info you are after in the WM_INITDIALOG message as it starts and use APIs like GetClientRect() or GetWindowRect() for coordinated and you can convert between them with ScreenToClient() or ClientToScreen().
