Did you try subclassing the list control?

Type CListCtrl in the Search window and click the Go button

As I had said before in the title, it was coded in api win32, and not in MFC,
so for the CListCtrl it won't work.....
I try something with windowlong...

MFC does not change the way a control works. All the same styles, messages and structures apply equally.

ok thank you for your help, I finally found it, you tell me the truth, with subclassing...

for people who are interesting there is my solution:

<br />
WNDPROC wpOrigEditProc;<br />
<br />
LRESULT APIENTRY EditSubclassProc(<br />
    HWND hwnd, <br />
    UINT uMsg, <br />
    WPARAM wParam, <br />
    LPARAM lParam) <br />
{ <br />
    if (uMsg == WM_GETDLGCODE) <br />
        return DLGC_WANTALLKEYS; <br />
	if(uMsg == WM_DROPFILES) MessageBox(0,"drop",0,0);<br />
 <br />
    return CallWindowProc(wpOrigEditProc, hwnd, uMsg, <br />
        wParam, lParam); <br />
} <br />
<br />
LRESULT CALLBACK DlgMainProc(HWND hwnd, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)<br />
{<br />
	switch(msg)<br />
	{<br />
	   case WM_INITDIALOG:<br />
	   {<br />
            DragAcceptFiles(GetDlgItem(hwnd,IDC_LIST1),TRUE);<br />
	    wpOrigEditProc  = (WNDPROC)SetWindowLong(GetDlgItem(hwnd,IDC_LIST1),GWL_WNDPROC,(LONG) EditSubclassProc);<br />
<br />
             ........<br />
              .......<br />
           }<br />
     ...<br />

MoveWindow problem

BlackDice6-Jul-04 5:31

I have a dialog with a picture box control on it. Within the picturebox I dynamically draw a CListCtrl object at a random position when the user clicks a button. Now I'm using a CRectTracker object to allow the user to resize and/or move the control. The problem is that when it gets the rect of the control, it gets it relative to the control itself, but when I call the control's MoveWindow function using those coordinates, it moves it relative to the parent window's coordinates, so that if I only move it over to the right one pixel, it moves it to the left coordinate of 1 for the parent window. I've tried using ScreenToClient, ClientToScreen, and I can't seem to get this to work right. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Here's what I have so far in my control's OnLbuttonDown MessageHandler:

if (m_tracker)
	{
		m_tracker->Track(this, point, FALSE,(CWnd*)&m_pDlg->m_picWindow  );
		Invalidate(FALSE);		
		CDC* pDC = GetDC();
		m_tracker->Draw(pDC);

		LPRECT rect = new RECT;
		CWnd* wnd = (CWnd*)this;
		rect = LPRECT(m_tracker->m_rect); 
        LPRECT rect2 = new RECT;
        LPRECT rect3 = new RECT;
        m_pDlg->m_picWindow.GetWindowRect(rect3);
        this->GetWindowRect(rect2);
       
		wnd->MoveWindow(rect,TRUE) ;
		delete rect;
		rect = NULL;	
        
	}
    CListCtrl::OnLButtonDown(nFlags, point);

If it's broken, I probably did it

Where is m_rect being defined/assigned?

the rect is set for CRectTracker in this code (that I got from an example on codeproject):

CListCtrl::OnSetFocus(pOldWnd);

    CDC* pDC = GetDC();
	if (m_tracker)
	{
		delete m_tracker;
		m_tracker = NULL;
	}
    LPRECT rect = new RECT;
    CWnd* wnd = (CWnd*)this;
    wnd->GetWindowRect(rect);
    ScreenToClient(rect);
    m_tracker = new CRectTracker(rect,CRectTracker::dottedLine  | CRectTracker::resizeOutside | CRectTracker::hatchedBorder );
    m_tracker->Draw(pDC);

That's somewhat messy including memory leaks. MoveWindow takes coordinates in relation to the client area of the parent window.

What is the parent window of the CListCtrl?

yes, I know it's somewhat messy, and I actually deleted some of the mess just to make it easier to read here, but I will clean that up after I can come up with a solution. The parent of the CListCtrl is the CStatic-derived picture window; I've also tried it with the dialog being the parent, and I know that you're right about it moving it according to the parent window's coordinates, but I can't seem to get it to move accordingly even using ClientToScreen or ScreenToClient ( I got confused, so I tried both).

If it's broken, I probably did it

If the random postion is supposed to be within the Picturebox then there is no reason to use GetWindowRect() and ScreenToClient() into this. You only need to find a x,y coordinate that is zero based within the picturebox... so the limit is the width and height of the picturebox minus the width and height of the list control. Keep it simple.

the code to place the control is fine and that is done in my class's constructor. The problem is that using the CRectTracker, the m_rect member is based upon the control's coordinates. If I move the control over to the left one unit, the m_rect will have -1 as it's Left member. so when I use MoveWindow, the control is placed at -1 in its parent instead of just moving over to the left one unit. m_rect is using the control's coordinates, and Movewindow is using the parent's coordinates.

If it's broken, I probably did it

Sorry but now you have lost me. That does not match what your original post said

bdiamond wrote:

So if you are trying to move the window based on it's current position you need this:

1) GetWindowRect of the list control
2) Transform the screen coordinates to client coordinates of the picture control
3) Adjust the rect as per positioning requirements.
4) Move the list control using the resulting coordinates
