I like the panes showing focus by highlighting the caption bar. But when my main view has focus, there is no caption or visual indication. I would like to remain consistent with the docked panes. What's the simplest way for me to draw a caption consistent with the theme/skin in use for the panes?

Thanks!

Handle WM_LBUTTONDOWN and call SetFocus().

Of course you have to add a caption too. http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=9682 - http://forum.codejock.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=9682
