I have a main loop and all in main.exe, but want to assign new ctrl(that is for Tab)
through dll, any suggestions about that?
It works ok, but when any functions being displayed as TopWindow,like PromptOK,
it complains something about "Top...".

And another one:
when assigning new TopWindow as a child to any Ctrl, then it works(opens) as child Ctrl,
is this the intent? probably yes.

Wouldn't it be easier to use TopWindow(orNewDerivedOne) instead of DHCtrl?

And another one / how to get Ctrl rect relative to main TopWindow?

Maybe you could quite the whole complaint here...

What exactly does that mean?

If i have a DHCtrl and want to use it in TabCtrl for exact child position where "slaveCtrl" usually is,
how do i get that position? for regular Ctrl you just call TabCtrl.Set(...), but here it's a little different.
When DHCtrl is assigned to TabCtrl.Set(...) it becomes child of a main TopWindow, so a little hokus pokus must be used to set position of DHCtrl correctly

DHCtrl in TabCtrl:
I am not sure yet for this, maybe testcase another time, but:
how do i get any Ctrl rect position relative to TopWindow? And possibly in Layout override func?
Now i am using
rc=GetRect(); struct sZ{int x,y,w,h;}sz={rc.left,rc.top,rc.Width(),rc.Height()};
but rc.left/rc.top is always zero - how do i get that?

And, by the way, can another exe be implemented - something like a plugin - into upp application,
or is too much trouble implementing this because of separate event loops and such?

I guess I do not fully undestand the question, but in general: If you want to get relative position of two (possibly) unrelated Ctrls, the easiest way is to use GetScreenView (or GetScreenRect if you want 'outer' dimensions) and compute it from these.

Yes, this is what i was asking.

DHCtrl in TabCtrl works as expected - like other controls, BUT,
zorder does not - this is when one want's to have another usual Ctrl somewhere
intersecting that DHCtrl in TabCtrl and above it, that is when DHCtrl is below it.
DHCtrl below is somehow shown - incorectly - more or less painting problems.

By the way, adding ScrollBars to Ctrl created wia dll does not work, this error is when AddFrame is called,
this was the same error message when i wanted to allocate memory in exe but then release
it in dll or vice versa, breakpoint with heap corruption.
Can for example, String(or any other) core class be used globally through exe/dll?
Or must they use some kind of allocator where class is - allocation/deallocation in exe/dll separatelly?
Exact error message was: Heap is corrupted --memory-breakpoint__61843922
