Hiding close button?

Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Beginners Area/Hiding close button?

Hi all, in my last thread, I had mentioned that I needed to disable TOTALLY, ANY movement to my window within a window. Now that THAT is taken care of, I have one more question on the subject.


What's wrong with this code?


Here's the code:







If it works, it should TOTALLY hide the X button from the window within a window.



Any help is GREATLY appreciated! :)



Thanks! :)

Don't use that. Use SetWindowLong from Userlib32 with GWL_Style (-16) and a combination of window style flags.

SetWindowLong:

Window Style flags for SetWindowLong:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms632600(v=vs.85).aspx

Try (WS_CAPTION | WS_THICKFRAME).
The "|" indicates a Blitz3D's Or. So replacing the constants for the values and the "|" for Ors, would be like this:
$00C00000 Or $00040000
