WM_PENMISCINFO
Posted to all
top-level windows whenever a pen system change is made.
Parameters
wParam
PMI_ value
that identifies the system change.
lParam
New value,
depending on wParam.
Comments
This message
is broadcast to all top-level windows whenever a new global pen default is set
by a call to the SetPenMiscInfo function. (Control Panel is the principal source of
these changes.) A series of WM_PENMISCINFO broadcasts is typically made after a
Control Panel application is closed.
In version
2.0 of the Pen API, the message parameters have been defined and the name of
this message has been changed from WM_GLOBALRCCHANGE to WM_PENMISCINFO,
although the value is the same for compatibility with version 1.0. The wParam
and lParam parameters are the same as the parameter values provided to
the SetPenMiscInfo function.
For version
1.0 compatibility, a call to the SetGlobalRC1AOCS0 function also causes a posted broadcast of
this message to all top-level windows, but the parameters are both 0.
PMI_RCCHANGE may be used as an alias for 0 for wParam; however,
PMI_RCCHANGE is not a valid parameter to GetPenMiscInfo or SetPenMiscInfo.
