DwmInvalidateIconicBitmaps function
Applies to: desktop apps only
Called by an application to indicate that all previously provided iconic bitmaps from a window, both thumbnails and peek representations, should be refreshed.
Syntax
HRESULT WINAPI DwmInvalidateIconicBitmaps( __in HWND hwnd );
Parameters
- hwnd [in]
-
A handle to the window or tab whose bitmaps are being invalidated through this call. This window must belong to the calling process.
Return value
If this function succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns an HRESULT error code.
Remarks
Calling this function causes the Desktop Window Manager (DWM) to invalidate its current bitmaps for the window and request new bitmaps from the window when they are next needed. DwmInvalidateIconicBitmaps should not be called frequently. Doing so can lead to poor performance as new bitmaps are created and retrieved.
