Hello,

I have got a dialog with a custom control, which I would like to
resize dynamically. I tried MoveWindow and it does not work somehow.
Does anyone know how to do this? A special property has to be assigned
in the resource editor?

Cheers

Pshemek:

You should be able to resize any window with MoveWindow() or SetWindowPos(). Are
you sure you are handling the window/client coordinate issue correctly?

What does not work mean exactly? Moves the window to the wrong place, or
doesn't move it at all or what?

Are you using GetDlgItem or do you have a variable attached to your control?

Show your code. Tell where it is executed.

Is there anything in the custom control code that is causing it to size
itself. For example, is this one of those things that subclasses a static
and resizes based on the initial size of the static control? You didn't say
what kind of control you're working with so it's tough to tell, but I've had
this kind of issue before where I had to resize the parent window (for the
control) as well.
