I am trying to intercept the WM_NCPAINT message by first calling ::DefWindowProc, then paint over it. However, when I paint the window controls of the title bar or non-client area, I need to have its RECT structure. Therefore, how do I access the REcT structure?

    The update region is passed in message’s wParam. The non client area of the window isn’t rectangular so you don’t get a single RECT.

    I presume you are aware that WM_
    NCPAINT
    is not compatible with Vista DWM glass.
