    ListView disappearing on resize!?

    SetWindowPos and MoveWindow make it disappear. What do I have to do to make it redraw/paint/whatever?

    Code:
    //WM_SIZE in a dialog's procedure
    case WM_SIZE:
    SetWindowPos(hListData, NULL, 0, 0, MainRect.right, MainRect.bottom, SWP_NOZORDER|SWP_SHOWWINDOW);
    //or
    MoveWindow(hListData, 0, 0, MainRect.right, MainRect.bottom, TRUE);

    Well, in the MoveWindow, you have the parameters mixed up. As it is, you're resizing the window to 0, 0.

    should be Handle, posx, posy, sizex, sizey, true); Or something to that effect -

    *Edit: actually, I think you're not moving the window and I haven't a clue as to what the size of the window is. Now I'm confused! In any event, I'm almost positive the parameters I mentioned as correctly sequenced -

    Doh. I should've tried with actual values. My calculations are off somehow. It works if I substitute other values for the 2 vars in the MoveWindow. Now I gotta figure out where I'm screwing up the values.

    Code:
            case WM_SIZE:
            {
                SendMessage(hStatus, WM_SIZE, 0, 0);
                RECT MainRect; memset(&MainRect,0,sizeof(MainRect));
                GetClientRect(hwnd,&MainRect);
                RECT StatusRect; memset(&StatusRect,0,sizeof(StatusRect));
                GetWindowRect(hStatus,&StatusRect);
                MainRect.right -= StatusRect.right - StatusRect.left;
                MainRect.bottom -= StatusRect.bottom - StatusRect.top;
                MoveWindow(hListData, 0, 0, MainRect.right, MainRect.bottom, TRUE);
    Edit: I got it now.

    Code:
            case WM_SIZE:
            {
                SendMessage(hStatus, WM_SIZE, 0, 0);
                RECT StatusRect; memset(&StatusRect,0,sizeof(StatusRect));
                GetWindowRect(hStatus,&StatusRect);
                MoveWindow(hListData, 0, 0, LOWORD(lParam), HIWORD(lParam) - (StatusRect.bottom - StatusRect.top), TRUE);

    I'm certain you'll figure it out (or someone else will help you). I always disable resizing due to my windows being skinned, so it's been a while since I messed with what you're doing.
