Window Resizing trouble
Author
I'm having a bit of grief trying to get a windowed D3D9 app to be resizeable (i.e., by dragging the corner of it with a mouse like a usual window.)
the window class style is CS_HREDRAW | CS_VREDRAW | CS_OWNDC, and was created as WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW | WS_VISIBLE.
whenever i try to re-size with the mouse, the cursor changes to the re-size cursor as i move the windows cursor over the border of the window, but when i try to drag to resize the window, nothing happens, i get no resizing of the window, and no drag-resize rectangle to the cursor. as soon as i drag the cursor outide the window border, it changes back to a standard cursor.
I've determined (from log functions added to msg pump) that the window is not recieving WM_SIZE or WM_SIZING messages whenever i try to resize.
Could anybody give me some pointers?
Thanx, sp00n
Sounds like your window is being treated as a dialog. I think the problem may be with your extended window style.
This code comes from Nehe tutorial 1, check that out if you are having problems:

DWORD dwExStyle;dwExStyle=WS_EX_APPWINDOW | WS_EX_WINDOWEDGE;...AdjustWindowRectEx(&WindowRect, dwStyle, FALSE, dwExStyle);This code comes from Nehe tutorial 1, check that out if you are having problems:

I've tried it but it still doesn't work, I cant drag the window with the title bar either.
here are the values for my WNDCLASSEX:
and this is what I'm passing to CreateWindowEx:
here are the values for my WNDCLASSEX:
wcex.cbSize = sizeof(WNDCLASSEX); wcex.style = CS_HREDRAW | CS_VREDRAW | CS_OWNDC; wcex.lpfnWndProc = StaticMsgProc; wcex.cbClsExtra = NULL; wcex.cbWndExtra = NULL; wcex.hInstance = g_hInst; wcex.hIcon = LoadIcon(NULL, IDI_APPLICATION); wcex.hCursor = LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_ARROW); wcex.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH)GetStockObject(WHITE_BRUSH); wcex.lpszMenuName = NULL; wcex.lpszClassName = m_sName.c_str(); wcex.hIconSm = LoadIcon(NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);and this is what I'm passing to CreateWindowEx:
CreateWindowEx(WS_EX_APPWINDOW | WS_EX_WINDOWEDGE, m_sName.c_str(), m_sName.c_str(), WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW, m_nX, m_nY, m_nWidth, m_nHeight, NULL, NULL, g_hInst, NULL);

Sorted. It was my dodgy msg pump, discarding messages instead of passing to DefWindProc :)
