1. Win32 status bar curiosity
Normally a euphoria program is shown in the status bar with an icon
(either the eu icon or something else if seticon is used). But I have a
case where no icon is shown - just the program name. This particular
program has the following window which fills maximum screen estate;
constant WinMax =
create(Window,"Tothemax",0,0,0,CXFULL,CYFULL,{WS_POPUP,WS_DLGFRAME})
The only other statement which seems to be relevant is;
WinMain( WinMax,Maximize )
The program runs perfectly but no amount of fiddling will make the icon
appear in the status bar.
Any clues ?

Try adding WS_SYSMENU flag in the create() WinMax.

HI, there are two situations where you can add an image to a status bar
control...or parts. Either you make it owner-drawn as my example in the
archives shows http://www.rapideuphoria.com/llrtns.zip
or if using win9x with commonctl32.dll ver 4.70 and above, u can send this
message.
SB_SETICON Message
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
----
Sets the icon for a part in a status bar.
Syntax
To send this message, call the SendMessage function as follows.
lResult = SendMessage( // returns LRESULT in lResult (HWND)
hWndControl, // handle to destination control (UINT) SB_SETICON,
// message ID (WPARAM) wParam, // = (WPARAM) (INT) iPart;
(LPARAM) lParam // = (LPARAM) (HICON) hIcon; );

how does WS_SYSMENU make the icon appear in the statusbar?

He is not talking about the control type "StatusBar" but about the
MS-Windows Start Bar. The place where windows displays the icons of all the
running programs, the big [Start] button, the systray icons, etc...
