WM_NCRBUTTONUP message
Posted when the user releases the right mouse button while the cursor is within the nonclient area of a window. This message is posted to the window that contains the cursor. If a window has captured the mouse, this message is not posted.
A window receives this message through its WindowProc function.
#define WM_NCRBUTTONUP 0x00A5
Parameters
-
wParam
-
The hit-test value returned by the DefWindowProc function as a result of processing the WM_NCHITTEST message. For a list of hit-test values, see WM_NCHITTEST.
-
lParam
-
A POINTS structure that contains the x- and y-coordinates of the cursor. The coordinates are relative to the upper-left corner of the screen.
Return value
If an application processes this message, it should return zero.
Remarks
You can also use the GET_X_LPARAM and GET_Y_LPARAM macros to extract the values of the x- and y- coordinates from lParam.
xPos = GET_X_LPARAM(lParam);
yPos = GET_Y_LPARAM(lParam);
Important
Do not use the LOWORD or HIWORD macros to extract the x- and y- coordinates of the cursor position because these macros return incorrect results on systems with multiple monitors. Systems with multiple monitors can have negative x- and y- coordinates, and LOWORD and HIWORD treat the coordinates as unsigned quantities.
If it is appropriate to do so, the system sends the WM_SYSCOMMAND message to the window.
