Marco,

That's an interesting question, especially since you are explicitly looking
for messages that are "posted", i.e. messages that end up in the message
queue and therefore are processed by the GetMessage/Dispatch message
sequence.

As a minimum, assuming that you placed the mouse cursor over the Minimze
icon in the title bar, you would see the following in this order :

1. WM_NCMOUSEMOVE
2. WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN

Additionally, one may expect to see the following message in the message
queue:
WM_SYSCOMMAND (with wParam of SC_MINIMIZE)
but it wont appear in the GetMessage/DispatchMessage sequence because it is
never placed in the queue.

The WndProc for the window will in fact receive the WM_SYSCOMMAND with
wParam of SC_MINIMIZE, but the message is not routed normally using the
thread message queue and the message loop, rather is sent directly by
DefWindowProc as it handles the WM_NCLBUTTONDOWN message.

roy fine

7. Which process posts this window message ?

8. Minimize message for controls 

It is easy to respond to minimize messages in a dialog and from there,
send it to child controls if necessary. I wonder if it is possible for
a child control to be aware of a minimize message directly, that is,
WITHOUT sending it explicitly upon interception in its parent dialog.

Thanks people.
