Hi Community,

i'd like to embed a trademanagerprogramm written in c-lite with GUI into my tradingplatform. It should ease my trading directly in the chart.
I wrote a little program in my tradingplatform, which include the engine in the chart with: SetParent(...)

Yes it works perfectly and all my messages (mouse- and keyboardactions) will got their own process, but if i use video_border to make the enginescreen transparent on some spots then i lost all my messages.
I found out with Spy++ that my egninescreen acts like a Dialogwindow if i use video_border.
Why is this and is there a way around to solve this?
I tried also a borderless window, but i don't know how to make the enginescreen transparent then. I know that video_alpha could make it opaque, but all my buttons and bmaps too and that is not what i want.

Thanks in advance
