I would like to draw a border (1px black should be fine...) on the limits of panel and also I would like the background color of panel to be the color green. So far I have: ```
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State Details
Warning C6387 'hwnd' could be '0': this does not adhere to the specification for the function 'UpdateWindow'. See line 58 for an earlier location where this can occur demo-win32 C:\Users\franc\source\repos\demo-win32\main.cpp 59```


What could be wrong here? How can I get the border and background color drawing in a way that is suitable to resizing of the window when maximized and also when the user drags the corner of the window or the side of the window with the mouse?
