c - Hide Window from taskbar without using WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW -


i have main window , window, window opened main window, problem window shown in taskbar!

i have found in order hide window taskbar, can use ws_ex_toolwindow style, don't want window have style, there way it?

simplifying little, window represented in taskbar if:

  • it not owned , not have ws_ex_toolwindow extended style, or
  • it has ws_ex_appwindow extended style.

so, solution make window owned. should owned main window of application. pass main window handle hwndparent when create window.

hwndabout := createwindowex(..., hwndmainwindow, ...);                                  ^^^ hwndparent 

as resolving problem taskbar, setting owner ensure window shown on top of main window.
