Title: Frame Controls in WinXP
Post by: Roger Garstang on July 17, 2004, 06:39:32 AM
I have a weird issue coming up where when I have a textbox set with the ES_NUMBER style and type a character that isn't a number and get the dumb little XP balloon...all my frame controls dissappear???  Same thing with the password style and the CAP lock being on.

I examined the messages they are receiving when the bubbles popup, and the frames don't get anything, but the window gets a WM_PAINT...so for some reason it isn't repainting the frames.

Argh, fixed it, but it still doesn't make sense.  I turned off the 2 Clip styles for my form and now they work...that is 2 for 2 now on those styles.  And it only seems to effect XP Themes.

From the documentation they look like they'd be good, but they are nothing but problems lately.  I guess I'll just put up with a window having flashing controls every once in a while.
