WS_POPUP and CEF?

[notepadexe]

i am trying to change the window style to ws_popup with cef c++ but the window fails to show when WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW is not used

this is before the CreateBrowser call in the OnContextInitialized callback

Code: Select all

      window_info.x = CW_USEDEFAULT;
      window_info.y = CW_USEDEFAULT;
      window_info.width = 451;
      window_info.style = WS_POPUP | WS_VISIBLE;
      window_info.height = 451;


this worked fine for the c api but refuses with the c++ one. the program will be in the task bar but no window can show w/ it?

How about setting style to WS_POPUP | WS_CLIPCHILDREN | WS_CLIPSIBLINGS | WS_VISIBLE?

i resolved it after changing some more data in the window_info struct. it turns out i had made a silly mistake by setting the width and height as CW_USEDEFAULT , this was preventing the WS_POPUP style only from working

after fixing my mistake and providing a real width and height it works fine with WS_POPUP | WS_VISIBLE
