The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Maximized MDI child is normalized size?

Asked by omegaomega in Microsoft Visual Basic.Net, Windows XP Operating System, Microsoft Visual C#.Net

Tags: vb dotNet

Hello, Experts,

I have recently discovered a problem in an MDI application that I am working with. The MDI parent form has a typical "Window" menu that has its MDIList property set to True. This seems like magic, but appears to work fine. That is, I get a list of open MDI child forms at the bottom of the "Window" menu and I can choose the desired child form from the menu and it is activated as expected.

However, when I have maximized the child forms there seems to be a problem. As an example, if I have two forms open and choose maximize the active form maximizes and fills the MDI parent appropriately. If I then select the second (hidden) form it is activated and fills the parent form as expected. If I now choose the first form again, it is activated but its size is that of the form in the restored state, and the second form is still visible filling the MDI parent background behind the first form.

In all respects other than size, the form seems to be "maximized". That is, the restore button is visible, and it cannot be moved or resized (by dragging).

Has anyone experienced this sort of behaviour before? Any clues as to how to locate the source of this problem (or to work around it) would be greatly appreciated.

(btw, this is way back in net v1.1 on an XP platform.)

Cheers,
Randy
