<r>...and if I change the parameters to<br/>

<r>That's very interesting. Actually I only used the Size assign to alter the dialog size. If I put your example code in a method like this
<QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>METHOD _recalcSize()<br/>

LOCAL dwExStyle := DWORD(_CAST, GetWindowLong(SELF:Handle(), GWL_EXSTYLE)) AS DWORD ...

Thanks Leonid. I have copied your full content into cctl6.man (which is referred in Manifest.rc), but the behaviour is still the same.

I've tried this. Here is my project:<br/>
<ATTACHMENT filename="Untitled.png" index="1"><s>[attachment=1]</s>Untitled.png<e>[/attachment]</e></ATTACHMENT>

The cctl6.man is copied from the new VO MDI App. The Manifest.rc has the same contents as Standard.Shell.Manifest:<br ...

<t>Addition: in VO I have<br/>
<br/>
RESOURCE CREATEPROCESS_MANIFEST_RESOURCE_ID RT_MANIFEST %executabledir%adkomm.man<br/>
<br/>
in one of the framework libraries. In X# I added a new resource "manifest.rc" and put this in it:<br/>
<br/>

<t>Thank you. How exactly would I do that (I can i.e. add a "native resource template (rct)", or an xml file where I could put the contents of my resource XML from VO into)?<br/>
<br/>
Is it possible to do it once (in an assembly) fr all projects which use it instead of adding it seperately to each ...

<r>I have a strange issue regarding the display of dialogs: On the same machine a dialog with the same size (proven by a debugview output immediately before the Show) of 118x146 pixel looks different in VO and X#:<br/>

an example would be too complex - but the problem is solved. I didn't have an app object, thus no message loop (this worked fine for Xported server apps without any GUI). After inserting
