Maximum Form Height?

sam
Do vb.net forms have a maximum height limit of 1212 pixels? I can't seem
to make a form larger than that size, despite the min & max property
values being set to 1 and 2000 respectively....an empty form can't seem
to be stretched taller than that value....

Sam,
The size of the form in the designer is limited by your screen size.

It sounds like you have your display at 1600x1200, hence the designer won't
let you go larger then 1212.

If you had your display at 1280x1024, then the designer wouldn't let you go
larger then 1036.

I'm not really sure why the size of the form in the designer is limited to
the screen size, as I may deploy on a machine that has a larger screen size
them my development machine...

Strange indeed.
Glad to hear that it is a "bypassable" bug....I should be able to switch
to a higher resolution temporarily to add more to the form. Thanks!

Looks as though I spoke too soon.....switching to a "taller" resolution
allowed changing the form to be taller. After switching back to the
lower resolution, any modification to the form size "snaps" the form
back to it's buggy maximum--in this case 1212 pixels.
