Re: Multiple windows -

Well I've been following the tutorial and am doing great! Lol, it isn't really that complicated

But alas I have a question Why is the positioning in a dialog so different compared to normal positioning? I mean when I had a 200x100 "normal" window... Well... It is 200x100 right? But when I had a 200x100 dialog it seemed much bigger compared to the normal window... Why is that? Would you happen to know this?

Secondly(last), when you use static controls and set text in them, if the text hits the right side of the recatngle it starts on a new line(assuming that the height parameter is big enough), right? Is there a way to get the same affect using something like CTEXT?

Thanks.

Re: Multiple windows -

Never mind the second question, I figured out that the problem was my own fault. I kept on testing the CTEXT macro(its a macro right?) by inputing "TestTestTestTestTestTestTestTestTest" then I accidently put one space after the first "Test" and then it was on a new line. I remembered that it works on a word based system and not just the space it takes(you probably did not understand what I said, but it doesn't really matter ).

But the first question is still there so please reply .

Thanks.

Lol, I just went back to that site and it says that the reason is because of the font selected by the user...

So I guess the are no questions for now.

Thanks.
