Hey Guys,

im facing some problems changing the height of my window in my app.
I have a window where I create controls in number of changing data so I don't have a static height i need to show all controls. Now I would like to adapt the window height to this, so it will scroll when it's too big for the screen.
My simple idea was setting it with just Win_Test..Height = value
When I look at this value it even changes during debugging, but the Window still has the height I set in the Description Wizard of the Window.
And its an maximized Window.

best regards
Patrick

When you maximize a window its height is controlled by Windows itself you cannot change that.

You can change height and width of windows that are not maximized.

Hi Patrick

to complete the previous answer, you can change the status of your window to non maximized with the Restore(WIN_your window) instruction, THEN change its size...


HOWEVER, what you are trying to achieve is generally done by putting all the controls inside a supercontrol. You then can change the size fo the supercontrol if needed and it WILL do the scrolling, without changing the window itself.

Best regards
