Many MDI (multiple document interface) applications on Windows maximize
the
MDI frame window when launched. The MDI frame window is the parent
window in
which the applications windows open.
If you are compiling a Win32 version of your REALbasic project and would
like to maximize the MDI frame window when your application launches,
put
the following code in the Open event of your application class:
dim result as integer
CONST SW_MAXIMIZE = 3
Declare Function ShowWindow Lib "user32" Alias "ShowWindow" (ByVal
hwnd As
Integer, ByVal nCmdShow As Integer) As Integer
Declare Function GetActiveWindow Lib "user32" Alias "GetActiveWindow"
As
Integer
result = ShowWindow(GetActiveWindow(), SW_MAXIMIZE)
Note: If you don't have an application class in your project, choose New
Class from the File menu, select Application as the Super property for
the
New class and name it "app".
