Oh, I meant that.
Sometimes this bug also occures on window menus of some apps, but it happens just sometimes. And you told me a guranteed way to cause it. Many thanks! Now torturing MSDN for more functions to take control over the popups.

It's much better :naughty:
but now McBar "resizes" dropdowm menu tooo often :blink:
When a text editor was active and file menu (from McBar) was dropdown and I click a desktop... It's looks like McBar delete item from expanded menu and after that redraws it... delete-redraw... :canadian:

PS
Thank you for taskswitching :naughty: look familiar :D :D :D

Wow,
I have to say this is coming along very nicely. I haven't tried it since the very begining and it looks good now!

Thanks for your hard work.

This app is coming along very nicely and the new release works even smoother than the last.

Unfortunately I am also getting the redraw error. I haven't worked out what exactly triggers it off yet - it seems quite random. But I usually have 1 window open.

About Resizing: This is because I tried a new window style flag declared in Win2k/XP, which doesn't activate window (well, in most cases). Note that when you call a popup in McBar, your active app's window remains active. That's much closer to Mac OS menu behaviour, but ... Windows is not Mac OS :D )

About TaskSwitching: Thank you NilColor for link to the Taskmodule, it gave me a sight of what you wish. But I've made TS all by my hand, without using Taskmodule source. That's because C++ and Delphi (with VCL used) stand too far from one another in ideology aspect. Also, Taskmodule uses Win2k specific undocumented API function for switching windows, which I worked around with my own multi-OS (9x/NT) compatible code. Anyway, many thanks for asking and helping.

This is wonderful.. I hope you have luck getting more/all applications' menus to show up on the bar!

Then, it's just a simple matter of removing the menus from windows and.. wow

Hey, all! The bug with resizing popups seems to be eliminated! Download and see my today's portion of coding.

McBar looks awesome using OBFont instead of Lucida!

Spotted a bug.. when you close a window, the menu stays on McBar until you click another window.

Also, the menus that come down from the bar should move up probably 4 or 5 pixels, so they touch the bottom of the bar instead of floating just below it.

Great work!
