get rid of size icon in statusbar

[gcue]

i have a resizeable gui and not sure why this icon is in the statusbar

i am trying to get rid of it because covers my text. i added an additional part to get around it (with _guictrlstatusbar_setparts) - that's why you see the vertical line before the icon. i've also tried using _guictrlstatusbar_setsimple but that gets rid of the parts (i have another one i need)

thanks in advance!

i see in the help file that its called a sizing grip. however i never specified to create it when i create the statusbar

$dSTATUS = _GUICtrlStatusBar_Create($dGUI)

the sizing grip icon appears when i make the gui re-sizeable

I have found this : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.form.sizegripstyle.aspx

oh wait... this is for the GUI

I will take a look if I find how to do it in autoit.

If you set the GUI sizeable after creating the statusbar, then this last won't refresh to the new style :

#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <GUIStatusBar.au3>

$GUI = GUICreate("MyGUI")
$dSTATUS = _GUICtrlStatusBar_Create($GUI)
GUISetStyle(BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_GUI, $WS_SIZEBOX))
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $GUI)
