I know in WinForms one can show a Help icon in the caption - how can one do this inside Clarion?
See: Form.HelpButton Property (System.Windows.Forms) | Microsoft Learn
Extra: c# - Detect when help button is pressed in title bar of Windows Form? - Stack Overflow
Do you just want to show the Help question mark button like in your examples or do you want to show other owner drawn buttons like you see in this example?
PS Its a nice utility app to have with multi monitors, or an ultrawide operating with psuedo monitors, been using it since vista.
Currently just the help one - so I can include a link to some documentation/help about the Window
But adding others in the future could be handy too - but for now, just the existing HELP one is enough
WS_EX_CONTEXTHELP
And look at this thread
You can also use SendMessage to send stuff to the window like changing icons, so you might be able to use it to alter the windows styles as well.
No idea if it still works, but https://www.capesoft.com/accessories/ezhelpsp.htm
Example app compiles and works in C12, Jeff.
