Just curious but why do you say to forget the whole thing? I mean I think it is intresting that you can embed another application in yours.

By the way is it legal to sell an application that embeds another?

It's not an issue if it's nice, it's an issue you simply can't.
Of course maybe the notepad window is embedded but that would behave very poorly.
All kinds of things conflict.

My recomendation if you want to pursuit?
Try to move the window's position along with desired location.
This is somehow of an embedded windows media viewer behavious.
Drag while playing and you'll notice the video is kept behind.
It's just an idea.
Not parent window stuff but more a stay above window matter.
Still seperated from the app controlling it.

This code:

Code: Select all

RunProgram("c:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\wmplayer.exe") 
hWndApp=FindWindow_("WMPlayerApp" , #Null)
While hWndApp=0 
  Delay(100) 
  hWndApp=FindWindow_("WMPlayerApp" , #Null) 
Wend 

hwndMain=OpenWindow(1,0,0,640,480,#PB_Window_ScreenCentered|#PB_Window_SystemMenu|#PB_Window_MinimizeGadget|#PB_Window_MaximizeGadget,"Containt Notepad") 
If hwndMain=0 
  End 
EndIf 
CreateGadgetList(hwndMain) 
hContainer=ContainerGadget(1,3,3,636,470,#PB_Container_BorderLess) 
; --> Add #WS_CLIPCHILDREN to the ContainerGadget 
SetWindowLong_(hContainer, #GWL_STYLE, GetWindowLong_(hContainer, #GWL_STYLE) | #WS_CLIPCHILDREN) 
; --> Add #WS_CHILD to the APP 
SetWindowLong_(hWndApp, #GWL_STYLE, GetWindowLong_(hWndApp, #GWL_STYLE) | #WS_CHILD ! #WS_POPUP) 
; --> Set the ContainerGadget as the parent 
; --> Remove WS_POPUP style, Now App's menu available,and works better! 
SetParent_(hWndApp,hContainer) 
; --> Position Notepad 
;SetWindowPos_(hWndApp, 0, 20, 20, 500, 400, 0) 
ShowWindow_(hWndApp,#SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED)

Repeat 
  event=WindowEvent()
  Delay(10)
Until event=#PB_Event_CloseWindow

SendMessage_(hWndApp, #WM_CLOSE, #Null, #Null)
End

Works for me as long as I do not minimize and restore the window. Movie shows just like normal even if you move the window around. Maybe I am not understanding or something...

I do get a refresh problem and other problems when trying it inside a MDI, it probably could be fixed if you knew how to repaint the child window and the embed application. But I dont know enough winapi.

There is some way to see only the video? (Without menu, without list of reproduction. ..)

Thank you!
