    Description

    CFS_CANDIDATEPOS

    Displays the upper-left corner of the candidate list window at the position given by ptCurrentPos. The coordinates are relative to the upper-left corner of the window that contains the list window, and are subject to adjustment by the system.

    CFS_EXCLUDE

    Excludes the candidate window from the area specified by rcArea. The ptCurrentPos member specifies the coordinates of the current point of interest, typically the caret position.
  • ptCurrentPos
    Coordinates of the upper-left corner of the candidate window or the caret position, depending on the value of dwStyle.
  • rcArea
    Coordinates of the upper-left and lower-right corners of the exclusion area.

Remarks

The ImmSetCandidateWindow function allows an index range from zero through 4 for the dwIndex member of the CANDIDATEFORM structure. A index range from zero through 3 is allowed.
