How to dynamically move a floating pane

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

Hi

I have a floating pane window that I would like to dynamically re-position (in screen co-ordinates).  Basically, I would like the window to retain its floating status but be somewhere else on the screen.

Thanks to some other posts on this forum I have been able to re-size the window to the desired size but when I try to move the window my code has no effect.

I have tried deriving from CXTPDockingPane and then calling the protected method SetWindowRect(CRect) but this did not work.

Does anybody know of an approach that I should take?

Thanks in advance
