screen,
the problem is that i can maximize the form from the control box or double
click on the top border,to the size of my screen but i can't resize it from
the edge of the form like we can do to any windows form.
i have alot of application that i can do it there, i checked all thus
application and every thing is the same.
what can be the reason?

Hi,
Are you trying to resize the window, which is in the maximized status
already? If so, try restoring it down and then you should be able to resize
it from the edge of the form.
Tell me if I am addressing a wrong question.

Hi All, I have an app where I change the size of the form at run time using controls and I do not want the user to be able to resize the form, I have removed the min and max buttons. I have tried to set the min and max size to what I want but now the form will not resize when they should be, it looks like I could change the min and max size everytime I want to resize the form but this seems a little cumbersome - - any easy way of doing...

Hi there, Since my last questions wasn't very clear, I will do it in a different way. I want to resize my app but while resizing I dont want to see content of the form, I just want to see the window border, then on release, the form reappears, just like when we use "Show window contents while dragging" on the windowsXP appearance settings... Any Ideas in how to do it?

Greetings! I have a form with a listview, a menu, and a few text boxes, labels and command buttons. I want to resize the listview when the form is resized to that the widths of the spaces between the borders of the listview and the borders of the form remain constant. I am finding this to be unexpectedly hard. For one thing, I initialized some values in the form's Load event, and I'm doing the control resizing in the form's Resize...

Hi, I have to DataGrid's on a form, one on the top of my form, the other at the bottom, but they though each other somewhere in the middle. What I want now is that, when I resize the form, they resize in the same proportions: So when I resize the Form with 50%, they each have to resize with 50%. The maximum what I can achieve now is that one of them resizes, and the other keeps the same height, if I don't do it like that one of the...

I have created a windows application in which the form needs to be resized on the MouseMove event. The windows resize function takes a lot of CPU cycles. And as the resize function is called on the MouseMove, the form is resized around a 30-100 times in one second. This leads to a high CPU utilization and all other application comes to a stand still. The form does not have any controls i.e. buttons, text boxes etc. It is completely...

I have a system where many subforms are used. Often the size of the subform had to be larger than could be displayed without scrolling. I set the height of the subform to the typical height appropriate for the typical screen resolution they were using. Now some users have decided to use higher screen resolutions, up to 1280/1024. When they maximize the form, that of course works but the size of the main form control containing the...

A lot of users at my workplace use different screen resolutions, and I build apps to use 1680 x 1050 pixels res by default. But some users are using 800 x 600, and the apps are too large for their screen. I used to write code in Java a few years ago (2005), and you could stretch a form with the mouse and all the controls and fonts would resize to larger or smaller size. Does .Net framework 3.5 support this kind of functionality? Or -...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
