Im looking for some code that gives a form the ability to stick to on another like the winamp windows. And also dock to the screen edges. I found a thread in this forum but it was closed. Can anyone help me?

You need to subclass the window to retrieve various messages (WM_ENTERSIZEMOVE, WM_MOVING and WM_EXITSIZEMOVE i think). These messages pass RECT structures into your window procedure which you can manipulate depending on the distance from any edge (screen edge or another form edge). Writing a full level docking system is often quite complex, but I've got a demo in the works (don't hold your breath though.. ;)) I did find an example on www.freevbcode.com I think recently.. |
