Hello,

Is there a way to hide the menu bar at the bottom of the screen in dialog
box? I created a MFC dialog box application and put the following code in the
OnInitDialog function:

-- code snippet begin --

SHMENUBARINFO mbi;
ZeroMemory(&mbi, sizeof(SHMENUBARINFO));

mbi.cbSize = sizeof(SHMENUBARINFO);
mbi.hwndParent = GetSafeHwnd();
mbi.dwFlags = SHCMBF_HIDDEN;
// also tried using the SHCMBF_HIDESIPBUTTON flag with the HIDDEN flag
SHCreateMenuBar(&mbi);

-- code snippet end --

That didn't seem to work. It works when I created a Windows application and
put the code in response to the WM_CREATE message.

The other thing that would work for me is if I can draw over that menu bar
area.

Thank you in advance for your help.
