Can anyone tell me if this is a confimed bug and if there is a workaround:
- Create an form set as an mdi container
- Add a Menustrip to mdi container and set form's MainMenuStrip property to
newly created menu
- Create mdi child form and set it's window state to Maximized
When you run the project and open the child form, the menus are merged
properly, but the form appears the same size as it does at design time
(rather than maximized) and the child form's maximize button appears to be in
the restore state.
Click to restore, and you're back to a correct state. click again and form
is maximized properly.
Any ideas?
I have a demo project built to demonstrate.
Thanks

Forgot to mention, after all this, if you set mdi parent form's MainMenuStrip
property back to (none), then child form maximizes correctly when opened.
Thanks

Hi,
I do have this problem: While having an open MDI Parent form I am opening
one MDI Child form that I am maximizing. The next child I open (even an
instance of different MDI Child form) is maximized automatically. Even
though it is set to normal in the properties menu. Do you have any idea how
to avoid opening MDI children at the maximized state???
Any help most appreciated!

I've created a simple MDI application and have designated the Window menu to
keep track of the mdi children. When I first load an mdi child, it's caption
consists of "File: no file loaded" and this is what appears on the Window
menu.
Now, after the mdi child loads, I call a method to load a specifically named
file. At this point, the child changes it's caption to reflect the new file
name. Unfortunately, the Window menu does not update...

VB2005 / XP SP2
Hi all,
I'm just a newbie in VB.Net and I created an MDI container form, with a menu
and when I choose something from the menu, it should load the MDI child form
maximized.
To achieve this I set the WindowState property of the child to 'Maximized'
and use the following code to display the form:

A while ago I posted a question on how to load MDI child forms maximized
(WindowState=Maximized). When I do this they always load in a sort of
in-between state and only when I resize the MDI container they take their
proper state.
Did anyone manage to do this in VB2005? If so, I'd love to hear how....

I am having a serious issue with my MDI child windows. This is with a
large VB.NET application that I ported over to VS 2005 from VS 2003.
The problem is that, if the child window is maximized and then closed,
it produces the following error message:
Cannot access a disposed object
Object name:'icon' in source System.Drawing
And then the whole system crashes. Again, this ONLY occurs if the MDI
child window is maximized within the MDI...

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,...
