For the Height of the StatusBar you control it by changing

Code: Select all

SendMessage_(Result, #SB_SETMINHEIGHT, 40, 0)
SendMessage_(Result, #WM_SIZE, 0,0)

BTW
I do not like to use Result as StatusBarID but I left it as per your post

Thanks for that. I did know that. I mentioned it only to show the whole picture.

The StatusBarID was used by FluidByte in his original posting and
reused by ccode. I didn't change that.

But back to business.
Both codes work stand alone.

Code #1 still doesn't work here in my program.
Code #2 either,
until I commented out "If wParam = GetDlgCtrlID_(hsb)" and "EndIf"
because "wParam = GetDlgCtrlID_(hsb)" never gets "#True".

Maybe I leave it that way.

Hi Lord
hsb must be the StatusBarID (the statusbar handle) instead of Result in the posted code
Also it must be global too

Yes, I know. And in my recent code it is like that.
