comctl monthcalendar help

[Vijay Kiran Kamuju]

Hi,

I am trying to fix  visual bug  in comctl monthcalendar control.
When I am using the control spy v2.0 for comctl5.0, I can see that
current date is highled with grey background on windows xp. (similar
to when we click a day in the calendar)
But on wine its not happening.
I am trying to find out, how we draw that highlighting.
And also how we draw the default calendar.

Thanks,
VJ

In general, drawing is done by the function "Paint"; in the case of the 
monthcal, by MONTHCAL_Paint. The default date is set in MONTHCAL_Create, 
with the call
GetLocalTime(&infoPtr->todaysDate);
The decoration of the day, including highlighting, is done in 
MONTHCAL_DrawDay. The highlighting would be the calls
     hbr = GetSysColorBrush(COLOR_GRAYTEXT);
     hrgn = CreateEllipticRgn(r.left, r.top, r.right, r.bottom);
     FillRgn(hdc, hrgn, hbr);

Hi,

I am trying to figure why its not highlighting the current date (It
should be greyed), but its not.
Well I am trying to figure out.
I think somehow it indirectly sends the MCN_SELECT for the current date.
We need to incorporate that in the ode calling default case.
I need some help, which function would be called if we send MCN_SELECT
and MCN_RELEASED messages

Thanks,
