Thread: Mode Dialog Problem

I am writing a plugin for an iTunes application and trying to pop-up a little dialog box. When I get the word I say

Code:

// On dialog creation notification...

			HWND dlg = CreateDialogParam(
				GetModuleHandle(TEXT("Itunesplugin.dll")), 
				MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDD_DIALOG),
				0, &DlgProc, LPARAM(vpd));

And the dialog resource is defined as

Code:

IDD_DIALOG DIALOGEX 10, 10, 294, 153, 0
STYLE DS_MODALFRAME | 0x0004 | WS_CAPTION | WS_SYSMENU | WS_VISIBLE | WS_POPUP
CAPTION "Dialog"
FONT 8, "MS Sans Serif", 700, 0 /*FALSE*/
BEGIN

	/* ... Stuff... */

END

As it is a plugin app, I do not know whether iTunes does something like IsDialogMessage or something, but I do know that the presence of my dialog messes up the app, so that it isn't updated and I drag my dialog around and it looks like when you win at the windows solitaire, like this:

What is the problem, and how can I fix it? Edit: I meant to say modeless

Well is there some kind of iTunes plugin SDK which you can refer to, with examples of how to do things?

It's going to be a lot harder to do by guesswork if there isn't.
