Can blue do MDI Windows, IE, a window that will not go outside of another window or Gadget, I could Check/Reposition to make sure it does not go out, but then it would need clipping which im not sure how to do

I've tried this

+ Code Snippet

load dll "user32.dll",1
handle=CreateWindowEx(0,"MDICLIENT","Nouvelle Fenêtre",0x10000000 or 0xCF0000,100,100,300,160,GadgetHandle(Win))

do

loop

Function  CreateWindowEx(ExStyle as dword, ClassName as string, WindowName as string, Style as Dword, x As Integer, y As Integer, cx As Integer, cy As Integer, hWndParent as dword)
   hWnd = Call DLL(1,"CreateWindowExA", ExStyle, ClassName, WindowName, Style, x, y, cx, cy, hWndParent)
EndFunction hWnd

to make an MDI seperatley, which i can then turn into a gadget, but no window opens

Theres no responce yet, so hopefully this will show what i want doing more

In this screenshot below, i have attached the Window to a Tab successful, so the Window only shows when that tab is selected, but the window is movable outside the parent gadget, and if sized over that of the Parent Gadget, It does not clip it.

Forget it, i figured it out, Using WinGui you Create an MDIClient, Then you Add an MDIChild Window to the Client like in Code Snippet below, Then you convert the Handles to BlueGui Gadgets.

+ Code Snippet

MDIClient  = twMakeMDIClient(0,10,10,500,500)
MDIWindow  = twMakeMDIChild(MDIClient,"MDI Window",10,10,200,200)
gMDIClient = CreateGadgetFromWindow(MDIClient)
gMDIWindow = CreateGadgetFromWindow(MDIWindow)

This is the first time i've found a feature that WinGui has which BlueGui does not.
