Re: wxDialog/wxMiniFrame window shape (was Button in title/caption bar of a window? Is it possible?)

Thanks, I've got this working, the appearance is not quite right though 
(see attached, I've coloured the new title bar yellow). I can set the 
background of the dialog so it matches the title bar colour, this gets rid 
of the grey area at the top. It would be nicer if I could remove the 
rounded corners of the window, but I guess that's an operating system 
thing, so probably best not to change it.

Thanks again,

Tony.
