Question mix, one thema

[Mike911]

I need to prevent my window from going minimized to tray when I click the Minimize-Button.
I write in native C++ with additional use of DX10, DXGI, Direct2D and DirectWrite.

I proceed the WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING. But how did I know if its triggered from a Minimize-Button ( WM_SIZE is already too late ) ?

Problem 2 : Catching messages
MSG CoreApp::RunMessageLoop()
{
MSG msg;
while ( GetMessage( &msg, NULL, 0, 0 ))
{
Debug_WriteLine ( ganzzahl( msg.message )); // my readout
TranslateMessage(&msg);
DispatchMessage(&msg);
}
return msg;
}
Why did I get such different numbers like 15,161,674,.. instead of Defines WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING 0x0046 (70) ?

The next questions I ask is a multi-monitoring scenario.
Two windows are generated via CreateWindow() and one of them is set to Fullscreen via DXGISwapchain->SetFullscreenState(true,NULL);

Problem 3:
The titlebar of the windowed window hangs now with their button-lightningeffects, why this ?
There´s nothing to read about that in the DXGI documentation.

Problem 4:
If the windowed rectangle intersects with the fullscreen rectangle it switches back to windowed.
Even in a minimize or restore animation, if it intersects it produces errors.
How can I develop a secure codepath for displaying two windows together (Full and Windowed) ?
How can I guarantee that Fullscreen stays fullscreen ?

Developing since about 20 years I came to the result that I need a cost-expensive Microsoft-Help-Line.

When creating a window set dwStyle to whatever you're using now, except without WS_MINIMIZEBOX
example: (WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW without WS_MINIMIZEBOX)
WS_OVERLAPPED | WS_CAPTION | WS_SYSMENU | WS_THICKFRAME | WS_MAXIMIZEBOX

Is that all ?
Thats only a bad workaround. I need my buttons.

That is a rather condescending, patronizing remark.

From your original question, it seems like you don't want the functionality of the Minimize button,
so why put it up there in the first place?

I want to prevent my calllback from receiving this message.
I questioned: How is it filtered, where and how is it done ?
Can´t you imagine that I want to call another routine instead ?
