Hi, anyone know how to make a Form full screen?? I'm almost there, I just
wondered if there's any way to have my form over the taskbar.

Actually, this isn't a .NET issue. I can get full screen on another machine,
so it looks like a driver issue. How sad.

If you're writing an app which will be used by anyone else, then seriously,
I wouldn't recommend you do this. I've come across a couple of programs in
the past which have covered my taskbar and they were VERY quickly
uninstalled again... You should not try to override a users OS settings,
it's impolite! :)

Thanks Lorne :) But this will be a dedicated machine in an engineering
environment, possibly even with a touch screen. It will be full screen,
alt-tab and ctrl-alt-del (etc.) will also be disabled.

Ah, that explains a lot then :)
Forgot to add something... It should help you... the following code segment
from VB6 does what you are looking for using API calls... Should be easy to
translate but it will be unmanaged code....
///
Private Declare Function FindWindow Lib "user32" Alias "FindWindow A" (ByVal
lpClassName As String, ByVal lpWindowName As String) As Long
Private Declare Function ShowWindow Lib "user32.dll " (ByVal hwnd As Long,
ByVal nCmdShow As Long) As Long
Private TaskBar As Long
TaskBar = FindWindow("She ll_TrayWnd", vbNullString)
ShowWindow TaskBar, 0
\\\
This will hide the taskbar for you... Call 'ShowWindow TaskBar, 4' to reshow
it...

hi,all
We are going to develop a program and when it is running, we need it full
screen and also, user can not switch to other place before exit our program.
I am thinking, we can make a window full screen, but how to avoid user
switching to other program or windows? And also, there are many hot keys, how
to capture or disable these things?
Thanks

Hi,
How can we run the app on full-screen. I mean all the controls such as,
text boxes, data grids on the form would also be resized or re-located
automatically when we press maximize button on the top right corner
of the form.
Currently, when I maximize the form.. controls on the form are not
relocating.
How can we do this..

good day everyone,
i'm writing an app in which i would like to implement full-screen
capability.
i would like to know if there is a way of getting a program to cover the
whole
screen, such as in M$ word or in internet explorer. the only reason why i
mention ie and word is because they use some kind of an API method to handle
full sreen.
I know there is an easier way by maximizing the form window and setting it

Hi,
We have an application running that uses FULL SCREEN ANCHORING in Windows
Forms. The application runs fine on all of our desktops and some laptops.
We are having problems with certain Dell laptops using an Nvidia Go graphics

the right and bottom boundary of the screen - therefore all of the buttons
etc. that are anchored to either the right and/or the...

Does someone have a clue as to how you can get a form to show show itself
"Full Screen"? Without Taskbar just a Form. Like Internet Explore if you

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

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,...
