hi
can someone tell me how to ensure the height of my window is always exact?
(excluding titlebar) in VB6
e.g. if i set the form to 300 pixels, then the total height of the form
takes into account the title bar, however i want to use a specific
background graphic in the main form background.... visual styles, and themes
and so on make this an impossiblilty! if the title bar is big (a la windows
xp) then i lose some pixels at the bottom, and vice versa
cheers

You nmight want to try setting the
Form1.ScaleHeig ht
Form1.ScaleWidt h properties instead of the height and width.

If you set those directly you just change the ScaleMode
- not the physical height/width This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

or height styles specified.
In Mozilla, I know I can use document.defaultView.getComputedStyle() to do
