Is there a way to make the parent control draw over the children controls when it is invalidated?

The only way I know to affect this is to make sure the WS_CLIPCHILDREN window style is turned off. I haven't used this a lot though.

+1: a parent without this style will draw over its children.

If you are looking to completely draw over the child control, it may be easier to just hide the child control.
