Re: Don't allow stretch

Several things here:

First, you have to process the OnNcHitTest message. If you get back a
resizing option you
don't support, such as HTLEFT or HTRIGHT, change it to HTNOWHERE [I think
that's the
code]; if it is for a diagonal sizing, just change it to the correct
vertical sizing only,
e.g.,

UINT CMyDialog::OnNcHitTest(...)
   {
    UINT where = CDialog::OnNcHitTest(...);
    switch(where)
        {
         case HTCLIENT:
         case HTCAPTION:
         ... others to be left alone...
                     return where;
         case HTLEFT:
         case HTRIGHT:
                    return HTNOWHERE;
         case HTTOPLEFT:
         case HTTOPRIGHT:
                    return HTTOP;
         case HTBOTTOMLEFT:
         case HTBOTTOMRIGHT:
                    return HTBOTTOM;
         default:
                    ASSERT(FALSE); // you missed a case!
                    return where;
      }

Then you have to handle WM_GETMINMAXINFO (OnGetMinMaxInfo) and set the
mintrack and
maxtrack values, and for the width values these will be identical to the
actual width, so
this will handle non-mouse-resizing as well (including maximizing)
