Resize A Window Knowing The Process ID?
Dec 17, 2008I have an application that while running (it doesn't have to have focus, it can be minimized or another window can have focus) can listen and respond to global hot keys pressed. For instance I have the key combo Ctrl+Shift+0. When this hot key is pressed my app can recognize this and then I can do something.
This "something" that I want to do is:
1. Know what window is currently active and has focus when the hot key was pressed. And...
2. Change the size of said window
I can currently identify what window has focus by the following (the code block is inside the function that fires when the hot key is pressed):
Code:
Private Declare Function GetForegroundWindow Lib "user32.dll" () As IntPtr
Private Declare Function GetWindowThreadProcessId Lib "user32.dll" (ByValhwnd As IntPtr, ByRef lpdwProcessID As Integer) As Integer
[Code]....
I can get the handle to the active window and the process that owns that window.
Having this information, how can I get access to the window itself? Furthermore, get access to it's properties so I can change the size of this thing? I'm not sure If this is the right information to be gathering for what I'm trying to accomplish but it seems that I'm close.

View 3 RepliesCustom Window Resize And Relocate
Apr 4, 2012How would I re-size the window @ a point relative to its parent location and size. I am using code from Make an unowned window's parent to my form, to be able to set a windows parent to panel1.
Dim proc As Process
' Start the process
proc = Process.Start("C:UsersDmitryAppDataRoamingSpotifyspotify.exe")
proc.WaitForInputIdle()
Dim tmp_hWnd As IntPtr
[Code] .....
This works on most windows except for ones that are customized. Maximizing the window will maximize the window to bounds of the actual screen bounds instead of the panel1 bounds. Code works fine with normal windows but not with this one. (Spotify Window.)

View 5 RepliesAutomatically Move Controls On Window Resize?
Feb 25, 2011Is there any way in c# or VB to automatically move the controls in a panel when the window is resized. I do not want the Anchor property, which only resizes the control. THe use is that controls are added at runtime to the form, and when the locations/values are loaded on a computer with a larger monitor, they are in the incorrect positions.
View 8 RepliesHow To Dynamically Resize A Silverlight 4 Child Window
Mar 23, 2011I came across an issue which I see has been discussed a few times, but there doesn't seem to be a defintive answer to the question.How can the child windows in Silverlight 4 be dynamically sized to fit within the size of the current browser window?The problem is on smaller displays where the browser window may be smaller than what the child window was originally developed for.What occurs is the OK and Cancel buttons are off the screen and cannot be scrolled to via the browser.You can duplicate this problem by simply shrinking the height of a browser window manually while the child window is displayed.The controls will disappear and there is no way to get to them.This is pretty much simulates what users with smaller monitors see.So the question is how can you set up a child window to dynamically size itself so it users can still interact with it?

Process And Find A Window?
Jun 17, 2010what I am trying to do its to automate a user interraction by code.First I have a button named "start" once pushed I navigate with webbrowser to download a file. What I try to do it is to find the window "File download" by his title name, I allready made a seperate thread to loop into to list of process until it found the window "File download"
Where I need help, it is with the process list. I try that code below but I don't see the process "File download" in the list.and once I found it I would like to use sendMessage() api to simulate the click of save.I would like to find another window after to catch the window "save as" and click save and if the window that ask for overwriting appear I would like to find it too and click yes.
Why I use webbrowser instead of httpwebrequest it is because the web site required to login, i try using cookie, etc. No success so I decided to use webbrowser, I navigate first into the login page, I login manually and once it is done I can click the button to start downloading. I want to make an automatic download loop, I have lot of files to download on that site, sometimes .doc and other times it is .pdf
I didn't found a way yet how to force webbrowser to ask for downloading .pdf instead of opening it in acrobat, if someone can help me for that point too

Showing A Window From A Process?
May 20, 2011I have 2 desktop programms..I will call them P1 and P2.So, P1 launches P2 as a process. However, at some point I want to be able to show a window in P2. My problem was that this window, when called, was showing correctly placed, in the middle of the screen, but in the back of P1.So, in order to show it as the top most window, above all others applications running on my computer, I used the windows API:
Const HWND_TOPMOST = -1
Const HWND_NOTOPMOST = -2
Const SWP_NOSIZE = &H1[code]...
Now the window shows on top of all other, but it is placed in the top left corner of the screen, resized to much small dimentions, that I cannot even see the controls on it.
