This changelog doesn't really seem to match the patch. Are you sure it's 
right?

This doesn't seem right at all. The new code should be exactly the same 
as the old, barring any side effects from SetWindowLong (which shouldn't 
affect the control anyway since this the function changed is the handler 
for WM_NCCREATE).

Yes. Currently the code always removes its internal WS_BORDER flag so it
doesn't paint its own border. Basically it leaves it to the default
nonclient handler. But it should only do this if WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE is
set. Otherwise it removes the WS_BORDER style and paints the border itself.

The SetWindowLong call is necessary otherwise the default non-client code
will allocate non-client space for the border and we don't want that. We
want to handle the border ourselves.

I'm working on an app that relies on this behaviour.

Thanks. I see what you mean now.

Hi Ulrich, how is it going with this issue ?

I've noticed that this code paints a perfect edit control, with its 
background color (for the whole area).
4545         es->style      &= ~WS_BORDER;

While the following code in place of the line above, doesn't fill the 
whole edit with the background color, but the area behind the text 
inside the control ONLY.

4554         if (lpcs->dwExStyle & WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE)
4555             es->style &= ~WS_BORDER;
4556         else if (es->style & WS_BORDER)
4557             SetWindowLongW(hwnd, GWL_STYLE, es->style & ~WS_BORDER);

This is also reletad to 2695.

Thanks !
