Hello List, Wine has problems with Windows which don't have the WS_CAPTION flag set. These Windows are usually not managed, which leads to focus problems(no keyboard) and the window constantly stays on top.
I had a look on this and tried to find a solution: (Applications tested: Steam, Quicktime, Realoneplayer)
*All windows seem to have the WS_POPUP and WS_SYSMENU flag set
*GetParent(hwnd) returns NULL on the windows hwnd.
*GetAncestor(hwnd, GA_PARENT) returns the same as GetDesktopWindow()
I added a line which checks for GetAncestor() in is_window_managed(). This made the problematic windows managed nicely on my KDE Desktop, but it broke the menus which are also children of the desktop window.
Checking GetParent(hwnd) == NULL seems to work too, and it doesn't break the menus. I've sent a patch in March 2005 (http://www.winehq.org/hypermail/wine-patches/2005/03/0504.html), but it wasn't accepted, and according to my information using GetParent in this situation is wrong, and it affects other windows too, like some parts of the main window of Half Life 1.
The last thing that came into my mind is to make windows with WS_SYSMENU managed. This works without any side effects for me, but it doesn't appear right to me.
Can anyone suggest a solution? Are there any other apps which I can test(Freely downloadable, small download preferable)?
Thanks, Stefan Dösinger
