Window without 3D border

[Gordon]

Hello

I cant find a correct style which would make the child window without 3D border

For e.g. I use now

WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | BS_RADIOBUTTON,

Which style makes it flat?

Thanks in advance

Assuming you're creating a button, there's BS_FLAT.

Yes I tried that before but it changes only the button... In my case Radiobutton or checkbox. The child window remains with 3D border

I'm confused. If the window style contains BS_RADIOBUTTON and the BS_FLAT style makes button flat, what other child window are you referring to? Maybe a bit more code would help.

HWND hwnd;

hwnd = CreateWindowEx(
WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE,
g_szClassName,
"The title of my window",
WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW,
CW_USEDEFAULT, CW_USEDEFAULT, 240, 120,
NULL, NULL, hInstance, NULL);

The first parameter (WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE) is the extended windows style, in this case I have set it to give it a sunken inner border around the window. Set it to 0 if you'd like to see the difference. Also play with other values to see what they do.

You can remove styles by using a boolean AND.

Thank you... Works well

Just for record:

hWnd_Radio = CreateWindowEx(0,
		TEXT("BUTTON"),
		TEXT(""),
		WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | BS_RADIOBUTTON,
		485, 375, 16, 16,
		hWnd,
		NULL,
		hInstance,
		NULL);
	if ( hWnd_Radio == NULL )
		return FALSE;
