Hello,
I just have a small problem, my app need to go in full screen and get
the input focus. Not all the app but just a CWnd inside with an OpenGL
context - I've tried many things and finally found this way :
When full screen :
- oldParent = GetParent();
- GetClientRect(&oldRect);
- SetParent(GetDestopWindow());
-
SetWindowPos(&wndTopMost,0,0,GetSystemMetrics(...),GetSystemMetrics(...),SWP_SHOWWINDOW);
- SetFocus();
When want to get out of full screen
- SetParent(oldParent);
-
SetWindowPos(&wndTop,0,0,oldRect.Width(),oldRect.Height(),SWP_SHOWWINDOW);
This works fine... But only on XP ! When i try on Vista, it works
once - If i try to go in full screen a second time, the app is locked and
i can't even access to any other window ! I can only kill it to get back
my system.
Does anyone already experience this problem ? Does anyone have a better
solution ?
