View 10 RepliesIv'e looked over several threads about this topic but theyre all for minimising not what i want.
1). I've got a button on a form and when its presssed i want the form to minimise to the system tray, and disapear from the taskbar, but only if that buttons pressed so if i simply minimise the form it it just goes to the taskbar as normal.
2). And while im threading, if i make a password protecting program and save the passwords via my.settings, they're saved in xml files i think? can the xml files just easily be opened and the passwords viewed without having to use the program to open them?
I have a form in an application I'm working on that normally displays full screen without a taskbar but provide the option to switch to a minimizable window with a taskbar. When I switch from full screen without taskbar to minimizable window with taskbar everything is ok. When I try to switch back to full screen the border disappears but the taskbar is still there and the form is not aligned properly.The text at the top is cut off somewhat and there's a small margin at the right edge that shouldn't be there.I put this code in a keydown event for the form.
If Me.FormBorderStyle = System.Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.None Then
Me.ControlBox = True
Me.FormBorderStyle = System.Windows.Forms.FormBorderStyle.Sizable[code]....

View 2 RepliesI having trouble with the WindowsState Maximized Property. I have a MDI WinForm application with a number of Child forms. I setup up each Child form with the WindowsState Maximized Property in the Property screen of the VS 2008. The MDI Container form is also Maximized.When I run the application, the MDI Container opens Maximized as it should. When I try to open a Child form it opens partaly Maximized. The MenuStrip and ToolStrip are Maximized including the MenuStrip having the Close, Maximized, and Minimize controls in it. On the form, the BindingNavigator and the Form itself is the size they would be if the WindowState was Normal.If I Minimize the MDI Container form and bring it back the Child form will be fully Maximized as it should be.
