It was correct, that I was not happy about the ''solution' I used.
This test
win_info.dwStyle&WS_VISIBLE)!<=0 && (win_info.dwStyle&WS_POPUP)==0
instead of
win_info.dwStyle&WS_VISIBLE)!<=0
excluded some other windows too from being checked and so some
overlappings weren't recognized.
My even worse, but functioning solution was to exclude this 'Myapp'
-window explicitely with
char title[100];
GetWindowText(hwnd, title, sizeof(title));
if(strcmp(title, "Myapp")==0)
goto overlap_check_passed;
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There are two main-issues I do not understand:
(1) Where does this Myapp-window comes from. It is none of the forms I
created with BDS2006 (VCL)?
(2) Why does the IsWindowVisible()-function delivers true, but is not
visible at it's GetWindowRect()-posiitions; it just appears in the
task-bar.
Thanks,
Michael
