The following table shows the styles that are supported by Windows Embedded CE.

Basic common control style Description

CCS_ADJUSTABLE

Not supported.

CCS_BOTTOM

Causes the control to position itself at the bottom of the parent window's client area and sets the width of the control to be the same as the parent window's width. Status windows have this style by default.

CCS_LEFT

Not supported.

CCS_NODIVIDER

Prevents a 2-pixel highlight from being drawn at the top of the control.

CCS_NOMOVEX

Not supported.

CCS_NOMOVEY

Causes the control to resize and move itself horizontally, but not vertically, in response to a WM_SIZE message. Header windows have this style by default. This style does not apply if your control has the CCS_NORESIZE style.

CCS_NOPARENTALIGN

Prevents the control from automatically moving to the top or bottom of the parent window. Instead, the control keeps its position within the parent window despite changes to the size of the parent. If the application also uses the CCS_TOP or CCS_BOTTOM styles, it adjusts the height to the default, but does not change the position and width of the control.

CCS_NORESIZE

Prevents the control from using the default width and height when setting its initial size or a new size. Instead, the control uses the width and height that is specified in the request for creation or sizing.

CCS_RIGHT

Not supported.

CCS_TOP

Causes the control to position itself at the top of the parent window client area and matches the width of the control to the width of the parent window. Toolbars have this style by default.

CCS_VERT

Causes the control to display vertically.
