Maximum form size

10point1 · February 4th, 2010, 01:05 AM

Hi,

I'm working with a touch screen and wanted to create a standalone windows form app that is the same size as the screen i.e. fully maximised

The form, without borders only seems to be allowed to be 90% max size.

Is there any way to overcome this limitation ?

Cheers

Hello,I am a fish here,my words may not be helpful at all.
You can try this:

Code:

Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Maximized

If that does't work,try this:

Code:

        Me.Left = VB6.TwipsToPixelsX(CSng(GetSetting(My.Application.Info.Title, "Settings", "MainLeft", CStr(1000))))
        Me.Top = VB6.TwipsToPixelsY(CSng(GetSetting(My.Application.Info.Title, "Settings", "MainTop", CStr(1000))))
        Me.Width = VB6.TwipsToPixelsX(CSng(GetSetting(My.Application.Info.Title, "Settings", "MainWidth", CStr(6500))))
        Me.Height = VB6.TwipsToPixelsY(CSng(GetSetting(My.Application.Info.Title, "Settings", "MainHeight", CStr(6500))))

That's what I do with my computer,you may need to change some parameters.
Good luck!
