Sets a static, iconic bitmap to display a live preview (also known as a Peek preview) of a window or tab
#include <WinAPIGdi.au3>
_WinAPI_DwmSetIconicLivePreviewBitmap ( $hWnd, $hBitmap [, $bFrame = False [, $tClient = 0]] )
$hWnd | Handle to the window or tab. |
$hBitmap | Handle to the device-independent bitmap (DIB) to represent the specified window. |
$bFrame | [optional] Specifies whether display a frame around the provided bitmap, valid values: True - Display frame. False - Do not display frame (Default). |
$tClient | [optional] $tagPOINT structure that contains The offset of a tab window's client region from the host window's frame. This offset enables the tab window's contents to be drawn correctly in a live preview when it is drawn without its frame. |
Success: | 1. |
Failure: | 0 and sets the @error flag to non-zero, @extended flag may contain the HRESULT error code. |
A window typically calls the _WinAPI_DwmSetIconicLivePreviewBitmap() function in response to a WM_DWMSENDICONICLIVEPREVIEWBITMAP message.
The returned bitmap must not be larger than the client area of the window or frame and must have 32-bit color depth.
The DWM uses a copy of the bitmap, but the caller retains ownership of the original bitmap and is responsible for freeing the resources that it uses when it is no longer needed.
The DWM does not keep its copy of the bitmap when the DWM stops displaying the live preview representation.
This function requires Windows 7 or later.
