Hello,
I have a tool window in "auto-hide" mode with a few controls in it. One of the controls shows the user a modal window using Dialog::ShowDialog() -- standard modal window. What happens is the tool window snakes back and auto-hides while the user is using the modal box. There is a lot of "user convenience" for me if the auto-hide window would hang out until the modal window is finished. Is there a way for me to suspend the auto-hide before the modal dialog is fired and then clear it when the focus returns?
Thanks,
Chris
