[Lazarus] Windows message WM_NCHitTest not working...

[Justin Smyth]

Thanks Guys i have found a way around this in my form i get it to call the 
windows message itself when it detects Mouse Down & MouseMove ( on mousedown 
set a variable to say move = true and in mousemove send off a windows 
message something like this SendMessage (Handle, WM_NCHITTEST, 2, 0); )


Seems to work compaired it to the code i used in D12 , same effect ...

Under linux there's no need to do anything: just alt+drag anywhere on
the window and it will move.
Under window there's a recipe on how to hook messages in the wiki, but I
cannot access the wiki right now so I cannot give a link.
