sir what do i do so u can see the bitmap?
sir a small brief of my program is as follows.
my program is in win32,
i had used BMP image on the Dialog,
the BMP image cover the entire dialog.
BMP image is in blue color.
And added a button on the dialog.
without using manifest the button is ok, but after enabling xp visual style a strange border is created around the button. As the Dialog has BMP image loaded, it creates a strange look, if some how the extra border of the button can be removed, then it will be ok. I am unable to remove the extra border.
i don't want to remove the button border, i want to remove only the extra border that is created around the button after enabling xp visual styles.
please help.

May be this is the 'default button' signal - I'm not sure.
Try to add another HIDDEN button to the form and make that button the default one.

this is not the default signal, because i have four buttons on the dialog, and each button have the same problem. When the button are in classic style every thing is ok. But after enabling XP Visual Styles this problem occurs.

Hi all!
I am developing an application which will work for two monitors. The additional monitor has a touch screen. Now I want to get the force of click for it. I found it seems like some APIs can get it because some applications can respond for it. But I don't know which API(s) can do it. Is here somebody be kind to tell me? Thank you!
Sincerely!

Nope...
You hadn't get my meaning. I try to find a API to get the value of strength when I click the touch pad. Not insert mouse event into message-queue.

Sorry for my misunderstanding (read error)  . You mean touch pressure strength or, I think, sometimes called pressure size. I'm not sure that this is standard information beside location information reported by device. This theoretically possible feature may not be carried out by all manufacturers.

Thank for your reply. I had notice that Photoshop can get the pressure strength from some touch pad. So I try to find which way Adobe used to implement it. But I found nothing. I guess that is a standard of Adobe. So I will try to develop my application by the API provided from vendor. Thanks again!

I don't think such a thing is possible. A mouse button can either be in a depressed or a released state (same with a touch pad buttons, and clicks generated by touching somewhere on the touch area). Generally, there's no way to find out how "hard" a button was pressed.
If a device is sensitive to such data, and is exposing APIs to capture that information, then that would be a different story. However, it is not the case with regular mouse and touch pad devices.

Touch screen devices usually report the touch pressure.

Agree, however these shouldn't be any inbuilt functionality in the windows for same!

Wrong. If you can provide an API link on MSDN to support your theory, I'll be happy to read it.
The need for applying "pressure" comes from using a touch screen that is based on resistive touch technology. In this case, the pressure applied will bring two different electrical layers together at one point, and when they touch, there's a change in the electrical current there, which is registered as a "touch". No matter how hard or gently you touch, the event is going to be either touched, or not. There's no way to measure the pressure.
If I were to use a capacitative touch screen, it works based on the weak electric signals emitted from the skin. Now, where is the pressure on that?

Pressure is computed, see, for instance http://www.analog.com/static/imported-files/data_sheets/AD7877.pdf[^], "TOUCH-PRESSURE MEASUREMENT" section.

That is for devices manufactured by a certain company. I indicated in my first post that such things are possible if the manufacturer has implemented such a feature and is exposing APIs to capture those details. However, that would be an edge case.
But most devices are simpler, and Windows certainly does not provide you features to measure "touch pressure".
Again, I'll ONLY accept an API from MSDN that tells me what the touch pressure was when a touch event happens.

Unfortunately what you require is not, in my opinion, what the OP has asked for

Of course, it is. The OP asked a question that is more general (and not specific to devices built by the analog.com company).

Are you French? Oh, sorry. Never mind - this surrendering is about the touch screen discussion. 
Good discussion though, as usual (THHB).

Like, certainly the good old days. Life's taking me for a ride, you know? It's becoming increasingly hard for me to find time to do what I want, instead of doing what I'm expected to do.
