I would like to give the scenario

I have created two floating pane with Application window as parent
Using an option of the menu bar of first floating pane i required to set/reset the latter floating pane as topmost window and vice versa.

I am using the following code to create both the windows

CWnd::CreateEx(WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT, strWndClass, _T(""), WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | WS_CLIPCHILDREN | WS_CLIPSIBLINGS, CRect(), pParentWnd, 0);

How can I dynamically set and reset the topmost window property for the second floating pane using the menu option of first floating pane.(I required this feature within an application

I will be grateful if you can send the code than Ideas.
Awaiting your immediate reply
Thanks And Regards

Hello,

Are you talking about DockingPanes?

If so.

1. Create custom Floating Pane window. (See Samples\DockingPane\DockingContainers)

2. dynamically change WS_EX_TOPMOST style.

Hi I tried with the code. But the window is displaying on the top of all windows.
I would like to make it as the topmost window with respect to the application. Not to the OS.
