Hi,

Is it possible to make group box control corners to be curved shape ?

So please suggest approach or sample.

Thanks,
Sam

What I have tried:

Group box control neither processes mouse or keyboard input nor sends WM_COMMAND messages to its parent.

The GroupBox control is a fixed type and is not customizable. You would need to use subclassing, or make your own custom control. See Subclassing Controls (Windows)[^] and Custom Controls (Windows)[^].
