Switch focus from panel or overlay to text of document from within plugin

In a sublime_plugin.TextCommand if the plugin is run using a key binding from within a panel or overlay is it possible for the plugin to switch focus from the overlay or panel to the text of the document?
Ideally if called from the overlay or find/replace panel then the overlay or panel would be closed when the focus changes to the text of the document, but if called from the console then the console would be left open.
I tried the following but it didn't work - I guess the view already has the focus so it changes nothing and an overlay or panel being displayed does not actually mean the view has lost focus.
if self.view.settings().get('is_widget'):
window = self.view.window()
window.focus_view(window.active_view())
Thanks.

MFC VC++: How to remove blank space between the Window caption and Client area

I am developing a desktop app using MFC. The following image shows the current state of the app's window top part. The area marked in red is unnecessary and I want to remove it.
How can I remove that space or atleast change the color to match the rest of the window background?
More Info:
The App is using Ribbon UI. I have added the App button programmatically in onCreate of CMainFrame. Is it the bar that holds the Ribbon categories? I tried SetMenubarState(AFX_MVS_HIDDEN) thinking it was the menu bar, but that didn't work. Just changing its color is also acceptable.
Update:
I have managed to change the color of that ribbon strip, and removed the caption bar I used for showing the 'add' button. Now I need to figure out how to place the 'Add' button on the right side of the ribbon strip.

MFC child dialog changing size unexpectedly

My application uses stacked dialogs to select between options in several places. For example, the dialog box below uses two stacked dialogs:
To choose between "shooting methods", the user selects from the drop-down list in the bottom right. This changes a child dialog box above it.
The "advanced options" box (located in the child dialog box) selects between a simplified interface and a more complete one.
In each case, the stacked dialog box is implemented using a picture object as a placeholder in the parent dialog. When a page is selected, SetWindowPos is called to move/resize the child dialog (pNewPage) to fit the placeholder.
// Show the newly selected page
pNewPage->ShowWindow (SW_SHOW) ;
pNewPage->SetFocus () ;
// Position the newly selected page
CRect rcDlgArea ;
GetDlgItem (IDC_DLG_AREA)->GetWindowRect (&rcDlgArea) ;
ScreenToClient (&rcDlgArea) ;
pNewPage->SetWindowPos (this,
rcDlgArea.left, rcDlgArea.top, rcDlgArea.Width (), rcDlgArea.Height (),
SWP_NOACTIVATE) ;
This has worked very well up until now, but one of my users in Germany is having a problem I can't explain. When he opens the tool, the stacked page comes up looking like this:
Note that the child dialogs are stretched so that the text in the child dialog appears larger than the text in the parent.
Other than the visual layout issues, the child dialog also seems to "cover" the selection drop-down in the bottom right (located in the parent dialog). Although the drop-down is still visible, CBN_SELCHANGE messages are not received when the drop-down list is clicked.
I am at a loss to explain why the child dialog boxes are being rescaled. As you can see above, I've tried to be very explicit about the resizing of the dialog box, but this doesn't seem to work.
Can anyone think of a reason why the child dialog might be rescaled on some systems but not on others? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Michael
Seems like this user has larger fonts selected than what is used in the first screenshot. Note that dialog sizes are specified in DLU's, which scale with the size the user has selected for the font. You can either scale your dialog explicitly, in pixels (bad solution, this will make your app look even worse on some configurations), or do your calculations in DLU's everywhere. Your second screenshot also seems to show that the child dialogs use a different font than those of the wizard. I'm not sure why that is, I guess it's something in the window styles you pass to the wizard when you create it.

MFC tooltip for list control of dialog box

I have developed on application, which shows a dialog box with two list controls.
In this list control, I am showing images. Now I want is, when we move the mouse on images from the list control of dialog box, It will show tool tip for that.
How can I show tool tips for images in a list control in a dialog box?
The CToolTipCtrl control is the MFC wrapper class around the Win32 "tool tip". You can use this to display a small pop-up window to describe another control or provide additional information in your app.
If you're using a ListBox control, explore one of these sample projects to see how to display tooltips for individual items displayed within that ListBox control:
ListBox With ToolTip Support
List Box With ToolTips
And if you're using a ListView control (CListCtrl in MFC), then you should start by reading the documentation for the GetToolTips function and the corresponding SetToolTips function. You can also check out how this sample ListView control implements tooltips:
