Hi,

I want to create a toolbar that I can dock to the top edge of my screen. I have written some code that creates a bar at the top of my screen, but the problem is that it covers up the title bar of other windows. So what I want to do is to make the maximum size of other windows smaller, so even if I maximize them, they will not go over/under the toolbar.

My current code is this:

Code:
#include <windows.h>

LRESULT CALLBACK WindowProcedure (HWND, UINT, WPARAM, LPARAM);

char szClassName[ ] = "Toolbar";

int WINAPI WinMain (HINSTANCE hThisInstance,
                    HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
                    LPSTR lpszArgument,
                    int nFunsterStil)

{
    HWND hwnd;            
    MSG messages;         
    WNDCLASSEX wincl;     


    wincl.hInstance = hThisInstance;
    wincl.lpszClassName = szClassName;
    wincl.lpfnWndProc = WindowProcedure;    
    wincl.style = CS_DBLCLKS;         
    wincl.cbSize = sizeof (WNDCLASSEX);


    wincl.hIcon = LoadIcon (NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);
    wincl.hIconSm = LoadIcon (NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);
    wincl.hCursor = LoadCursor (NULL, IDC_ARROW);
    wincl.lpszMenuName = NULL;            
    wincl.cbClsExtra = 0;                   
    wincl.cbWndExtra = 0;                    

    wincl.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH) COLOR_BACKGROUND;


    if (!RegisterClassEx (&wincl))
        return 0;

 
    hwnd = CreateWindowEx (
           0,                 
           szClassName,         
           "Toolbar",     
           WS_POPUP | WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW | WS_BORDER, 
           0,      
           0,     
           1280,                
           30,               
           HWND_DESKTOP,        
           NULL,                
           hThisInstance,       
           NULL                 
           );


    ShowWindow (hwnd, nFunsterStil);
    SetWindowPos ( hwnd, HWND_TOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0,SWP_NOMOVE|SWP_NOSIZE );

    while (GetMessage (&messages, NULL, 0, 0))
    {

        TranslateMessage(&messages);

        DispatchMessage(&messages);
    }

   
    return messages.wParam;
}




LRESULT CALLBACK WindowProcedure (HWND hwnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
    switch (message)                  
    {
        case WM_DESTROY:
            PostQuitMessage (0);       
            break;
        default:                    
            return DefWindowProc (hwnd, message, wParam, lParam);
    }

    return 0;
}
Thanks!
