Hi!

At DEVCON 11 I have seen a sample for new VFP 7 thins. In the sample demonstrated new property of controls - hWND. The sample made a command button elliptic using 2 API functions - CreateEllipticRgn and SetWindowRgn. Handle for SetWindowRgn used from Hwnd property of command button. Whan sample run at VFP 7 - button is really elliptic.

How you can comment that? MS removed this feature in the next releases of VFP7? If yes, I'm quite wondered than...

>Not in VFP, they aren't. I don't think this is any different in VFP 7. The only enhancement I've heard is that the hWnd property is being added to forms. If it were differnt in VFP 7, that would have involved a major rewrite.

>>It is correct for many VFP controls, but not for all, I hope. It seems button, textbox, editbox and many otehr controls are standard windows controls. They rendered, yes, but they probably also have HWND. VFP just allows them to draw self in the memory DC, than applies that DC content together with other drawings (for example, drawings of shapes and grids) to the screen. I will make investigation and let know here. Is it not true? Is it true only for VFP 7?
