Re: Catching window restore

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

As Joe already wrote add the WM_SIZE handler and check the first parameter
value to be SIZE_RESTORED or SIZE_MAXIMIZED.
However, if you need to distinguish the cases when window was restored from
its minimized state (but not from maximized one!) you will need to implement
a Boolean flag (m_bMinimized), set it to true after window has been
minimized (do it in the same WM_SIZE handler), reset it to true after
restoring, and check this flag while "restoring"/"maximizing".

Is there a way to catch when a window is restored when it is
clicked in taskbar? I tried defining OnSysCommand() for
my main frame class, but it wasn't hit.

Thanks,
Drew
