since blitzclose only supports the close-button, i decided to write a pimped version on my own...

HookB3D features:

.) programmable titlebar buttons min/max/close
.) enable/disable titlebar min/max buttons
.) get state of window (moved, resized, minimized, maximized, restored, ...)
.) set state of window (moveable, sizeable)
.) set window always on top

works fine on xp, but could someone test it on 95-vista?

if there arenīt any bugs left i will remove the nag-screen from the compiled exe. maybe there will be a little fee depends on time?!


feature request, bug report -> here ;)

thx, chi

Works well.
But why are there two Graphics3D commands at the start?

Also, no matter what Graphics3D size I set the demo always opens the same size.

hi john,

if you only call "Graphics3D 1024,768,0,3" youīll get a 320x240 resizeable window (maximized quality= 1024x768).
call "Graphics3D 800,600,0,2" before and your resizeable win is 800x600 and not 320x240.

Oh, sorry, I did test it but forgot to reply. Yes, it works on Vista (x64).

thx! will release the final version soon...

Sorry to revive an old topic, but this would appear (with the always on top flag) to allow the application to continue execution even if the window looses focus ? If so this would be great of windowed online games ect, where lost focus usually means server disconnect.


chi(Posted 2009) [#9]
hmm, could you please explain that a little bit more? what exactly do you mean with "server disconnect"? starting a window with graphics3d(800,500,0,[6]) freezes a program without focus. no matter if the "always on top" flag was set or not. but it would be easy to add a simple line to check/set focus if the the application lost its focus... or did i get you totally wrong???



thx! will release the final version soon...

;) next week!!! (freeware)


cheers, chi
