Hi,

I have a nearly complete project, but in the end had a problem.
I will explain, I used GDI and Canvas to write a text on top of other open application (using FindWindow to get the DC), but when I change the text in the same place, the texts are on top of another.

some solution or tip? (the other program uses OpenGL, but has protection hook, and one job would be simple become difficult, my goal is just writing).

Note: I've used UpdateWindow(), ReleaseDC() as methods to work around this, but it not worked.

But those who have problem with the question above the atom0s refers is:
