Height of menu + toolbar

[Semen Matusovski]

There is a %WS_POPUP window (without border), which includes menu and toolbar (autosize) only.
dyBitMap in CreateToolbarEx = Y pixels.
How much pixels in height (minimum) should have this window ?

GetSystemMetrics(%SM_CYMENU) + Y (dyBitmap) + what ???

Semen,

If you have the handle of the toolbar, just use GetWindowRect and
calculate the current toolbar height, it should work OK.

Yep but you need client2screen to determine it

This retrieves the X and Y from the client like getwindowrect

X - windowrect.nLeft etc..

Thanks, guys.
I tried to use Steve's suggestion (Win95b), using GetWindowRect.
.nTop for parent window = 25
.nTop for Toolbar = 44 = 25 + CYMENU - Ok
But .nBottom is 72 for two variants: dyBitmap = 24 and dyBitmap = 48 !!!

It looks that it's necessary to add 12 pixels todyBitmap for classic view. But what means these 12 pixels ?
I can imagine 4 * CYFIXEDFRAME. But it's fantasy only.

Ps. Unfortunatelly, Windows doesn't reduce client's area, during attaching toolbar. So attempts to understand toolbar's height using client's coordinates also failed.

Adjust menu on my site (VB!) does show you something about this..

Steve --
I'm sorry. Your idea works fine.
I calculated .nBottom - .nTop imm. after CreateToolbarEx.
It was a mistake. After SendMessage hToolbar, %TB_AUTOSIZE, 0, 0 .nBottom - .nTop = 36, like I expected.
Thanks.
