HideCaret (Windows CE 5.0)
This function removes the caret from the screen. Hiding a caret does not destroy its current shape or invalidate the insertion point.
BOOLHideCaret(HWNDhWnd);
Parameters
- hWnd
[in] Handle to the window that owns the caret. If this parameter is NULL, HideCaret searches the current task for the window that owns the caret.
Return Values
Nonzero indicates success. Zero indicates failure. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.
Remarks
HideCaret hides the caret only if the specified window owns the caret. If the specified window does not own the caret, HideCaret does nothing and returns FALSE.
Hiding is cumulative. If your application calls HideCaret five times in a row, it must also call ShowCaret five times before the caret is displayed.
Requirements
OS Versions: Windows CE 1.0 and later.
Header: Winuser.h.
Link Library: Caret.lib.
