Help detecting window movement and position...

[coda]

Hi,

Anyone know a way using either native LB or win32api in which I can detect if a user has moved the main gui window of my program and at what co-ordinates it now resides?

Thanks for any assistance that anyone can provide.

There is an article in the LBPE alycesrestaurant.com/lbpe/WindowCoordinates.html This gets the coordinates but it does not detect changes. so you would need to check regularly in your code. The other alternative is the native RESIZEHANDLER You will need to play with both to see which fits your needs.

Ok, Thanks Rod. It needs to be a detection of dragging of the window... not resize so, I think the resize handler is out of contention.

Thankyou so much, Rod. I have used the LB Encyclopaedia method and it has worked a treat. Exactly what I needed! Thanks again!
