Reply on November 21 2009, 7:16pm:
    For transparency in a window, you'd want to use layered windows. It's been a while, but see SetLayeredWindowAttributes().

Question: I want to completely replace system menu with my own popup menu! How to do it?(WM_INITMENUPOPUP can use to get popup event! )
Asked by ruchira (202.129.233.x) on November 18 2009, 12:21am
Reply on November 18 2009, 12:20pm:
    Umm, I dunno, can you delete items from the menu via GetSystemMenu()? I don't think I've ever completely replaced it.. Maybe WM_NCRBUTTONDOWN handling or something?

Question: What is the message for system menu poup event? (I want to change system menu like winamp3)

Reply on November 17 2009, 8:41pm:
    Look up GetSystemMenu(), I think that probably is what we used... You'll likely need WM_SYSCOMMAND too...

    I am not religious. I don't generally believe in things without some reasonable evidence of them... Obviously there's a lot of explaining to be done.. What created the universe? Got me...

Question: Trackball, touchpad, j-mouse, traditional mouse, or tablet?
Asked by Krister (99.64.14.x) on November 16 2009, 6:41pm
Reply on November 17 2009, 8:36pm:
    On desktops I use a normal mouse (MS wheelmouse optical).

    For keyboard, I use the classic MS natural keyboard (the original with inverted T arrows -- not the elite, and not the newer ones). I have three of them (thanks to Steve for one of them!). This one I'm typing on now was made in 1998 or 1999, I believe (it has a "made for Windows 95" logo on it, too!).. and has seen use ever since. Quality stuff. I also have an old SGI keyboard that isn't bad.

    For the laptop, as of a couple years ago I converted to the eraserhead thumbthingy on the Thinkpads...
