invoke MoveWindow,hStatus,0,caH,caW,39,TRUE no matter how i change the paramter to the call of MoveWindow, when resize ,the status bar is still at the client area bottom , holds the width of caW.
xiahan,
A status bar is designed to stay at the bottom of the window client area. If you want a window to do otherwise, create your own with a new WNDCLASSEX structure and give it whatever characteristics you like. It will work correctly with MoveWindow() or SetWindowPos().
you can locate the status bar anywhere you like if you use CreateWindowEx to create it (i am pretty sure, at least)
use the predefined system class...
szStatusBarClass db 'msctls_statusbar32',0
but - you have to handle WM_SIZE, too :P
use WS_CHILD or WS_VISIBLE style
