I want to maximize my form size when i maximize my window. means when i double click on window to maximize then my form also get maximize with window, i used dock property bt still not getting proper result.
Is there a easy way to maximize a window in VB when the maximize button is pressed so that everything that is contained in the Window (Forms, Panels) will also automatically resize to the screen size?
im using vb.net to open IE and go to a website... i can figure out how to size the window, but not change the windows location on the screen... how can i make the IE window position always 0,0
Dim oIE As Object Dim hWnd As Long oIE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")[code].....
If you have ever noticed in the Task Manager, when you right-click on the running task, you have many options which include 'Minimize' and 'Maximize'. Is there anyway to do achieve this in vb?
Is there a way to programmatically change the font size of a console window? I know that you can right click on the window's button in the taskbar and click on properties.... but is there a way to do it on a per-application, per-use basis, and do it programmatically?
This is a program in vb.net, but I'm planning to use an outside process by using system.diagnostics.process.start("C:Otherprogram.exe") Now what I want to do is to resize the default size of window of outside process, can I do that?So that only the things that will be needed by the user can be seen?
I am developing an window application in which I have to change the size of video playing inside media player. i don't want to change the size of media player.
after i run the program, the form pop up showing no problem.however, when i click on the maximize button on the top right of the form, the form enlarge and fill the screen. but the components will not move accordingly.
I am using VB 2005 express edition and I need to develop a simple application. It should open a certain program (called MyMobiler) when a button is clicked. So far, I haven't managed to start it maximized (using shell (programpath, vbMaximizedFocus)), it always opens restored, although trying with notepad works (notepad opens maximized if i put vbMaximizedFocus). What else could I try? Here's my code
Public Class Form1 Private Sub Label1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) End Sub[code]....
I have the Context Menu Options like ( Small Font , Large Font ) based on the selection I want to change the size of the Font in the Controls,Control's Size & location(x,y,height,width). The resize of the controls should not affect the look and feel of the forms.
I have an application right now that starts a process, then opens a file associated with that process (system.diagnostics.process.start("WM.exe")), however, the way they save, there is a window within a window. It's like in photoshop cs3 when you have many windows within the big window of the application. Right now I use an api call to findwindow which is the application itself, but within that I need to find the subwindow, of which I know the apptitle, and then I need to set its windowstate to maximized. Does anyone know how this can be done? I think there's a way to hook a handle, but how does one also maximize?
I want to maximize my mdi child automatically by setting WindowState to Maximize. But it looks like this.. why is this happening? but if I restore it and maximize it again its body now occupies the mdiparent space. To aim is not enough. You must hit.
In VB6 IDE if you doubleclick on the titlebar of the form designer, it maximizes/restores. But in VB.net it opens up code window.How do you quickly maximize/restore the form designer window ?
Is there is any option to send a message to a window to "press" on the maximize button? I thought using the sendmessage API but I don't really know how, I alreday got the window handle, the problem is how to send the message?
This Winforms app has a toolStripComboBox within a MenuStrip container that displays Culture Info languages.The toolStripComboBox's width is not expanding to accommodate the size of the string. The strings are dynamically added to the combobox from underlying code. How do I get the comboboxe's width to expand? Below is an image of the'too narrow' combobox and below that the Properties for the combobox.
I have the following function that should make the window always on top of other applications.
Private Declare Function SetWindowPos Lib "user32" _ (ByVal handle As Long, ByVal hWndInsertAfter As Long, ByVal x As Long, ByVal y As Long, _ ByVal cx As Long, ByVal cy As Long, ByVal wFlags As Long) As Long
[Code]....
The problem is that it reduces the window size so that you can only see the title bar and min/max/close buttons. Also, even that does not stay on top of other windows.
I have used this function before on a windows 7 machine (instead of xp which this one is on) and it worked fine.
I want to take a snapshot of the foreground window without using print screen key. So far the only think i can do with the foreground window is get its title but If i can get the size and location then I can get cordinates on where to set capture with graphics.copyfromscreen.

I have a label which appears full screen on a projector (VGA 2). In this label I will be sending strings. Some one liner's, some wrapped paragraphs. Some multi-line with carrage returns. My goal is to have the font dynamically change size to be as large as possible without overflowing the fixed label size.
Okay here's what I'm trying to do. I want to change the font size of a label based on the size of the form.If the form size is 0 through let's say 500 I want the label size to be 50. How can I write this?
I am using the following function and code to try to get the size of a client window in vb.net, I don't think I have any issues with my Rect structure.Why do I get this error: 'Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow.'
Private Declare Function GetClientRect Lib "user32" (ByVal _ hwnd As IntPtr, ByVal lpRect As Rect) As Boolean Dim lobbywindow As Long = windowhwnd Dim lobbyrect As New Rect GetClientRect(lobbywindow, lobbyrect)
When I start working on a Project I like to change the size of the Properties Window. (I like to make it taller than it is by default). But each time I start a new Project the Properties Window goes back to the original shape/location. Is there a way that I can customize the layout of that window so that the shape is retained across sessions?
I am starting a Console (3rd party application) with a New Process in vb.net. I simply want to size the window when it loads. All the APIs have not worked, SetWindowPos, MoveWindow, etc... need to work in all versions of Windows. Anybody have solid code that does this?
