Hiding grip doesn’t work

Did you try the ShowSizeGrip() method?

ShowSizeGrip( FALSE );

I have tried ShowSizeGrip( FALSE ), ShowSizeGrip( NULL); With this property page doesn’t show the grip but you can stil resize the page.

Hi have tried

1. ShowSizeGrip( FALSE ), ShowSizeGrip( NULL);
2. Overriding WindowProc()

LRESULT CMyWizard::WindowProc(UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
if( message == WM_SIZE )
CPropertySheet::WindowProc( message, wParam, lParam );
else
return CExtResizablePropertySheet::WindowProc(message, wParam, lParam);
}

LRESULT CMyWizardPage::WindowProc(UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
if( message == WM_SIZE )
CPropertyPage::WindowProc( message, wParam, lParam );
else
return CExtResizablePropertyPage::WindowProc(message, wParam, lParam);
}

I even tried overiding OnSize() but still couldn’t stop the wizard sized to resize. Is theren any other way to stop changing the size of wizard pages.

Thanks

The ShowSizeGrip() method is used to hide/show the resizing gripper. It does not modify the WS_THICKFRAME window style, which indicates whether the window is resizable. For dialogs, you need to set the Border property in the dialog editor to Dialog Frame. For CExtResizablePropertySheet, the WS_THICKFRAME window style is turned on by default. To disable resizing, simply remove this style:

ModifyStyle( WS_THICKFRAME, 0 );
ShowSizeGrip( FALSE );
