I've been thinking about doing a project involving a custom user interface, involving a search bar and also a custom window management system, and basically needed some advice on feasibility. So I figured where better to look than wincustomize...
Has anyone done any work involving window management? What I want to do is create a system where instead of automatically being displayed full screen, multiple windows are laid out on screen and they can focused / unfocused with a click, or double click, or something. Also I wanted it so that users can drag the windows around and organise them as they wish. Anyone know if this is possible / how do-able it is? I was thinking maybe create a class that contains an MS window within it and just change how the user interacts with it. How accessible are the windows classes? Is it possible to use them in any kind of programming language?
Any thoughts are welcome aside from answering the questions listed, at the moment I'm trying to gather ideas and decide whether or not its a viable project. Anyone with experience of any kind in this area would be a big bonus.
Thanks,
Martin
