WM_NCACTIVATE
The
WM_NCACTIVATE message is sent to a window when its nonclient area needs to be
changed to indicate an active or inactive state.
WM_NCACTIVATE
fActive = (BOOL) wParam; // new state of the title bar or icon
Parameters
fActive
Value of wParam.
Specifies when a title bar or icon needs to be changed to indicate an active or
inactive state. If an active title bar or icon is to be drawn, the fActive
parameter is TRUE. It is FALSE for an inactive title bar or icon.
Return Values
When the fActive
parameter is FALSE, an application should return TRUE to indicate that Windows
should proceed with the default processing, or it should return FALSE to
prevent the title bar or icon from being deactivated. When fActive is
TRUE, the return value is ignored.
Default Action
The DefWindowProc
function draws the title bar or icon title in its active colors when the fActive
parameter is TRUE and in its inactive colors when fActive is FALSE.
