How to set a minimum and maximum size of a window in Win32 API?
How do you set a minimum and maximum size of a window (form) in Win32 API? So far I know that the window WindowProc() method should be listening for WM_GETMINMAXINFO message .. after that, I am lost. Please help.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Sorry, that line should end with a ';':
return DefWindowProc(hWnd, msg, (WPARM) fwSizeType, MAKELPARAM(nHeight,nWidth)
return DefWindowProc(hWnd, msg, (WPARM) fwSizeType, MAKELPARAM(nHeight,nWidth)
...and it actually should read
return DefWindowProc(hWnd, msg, (WPARAM) fwSizeType, MAKELPARAM(nHeight,nWidth)
return DefWindowProc(hWnd, msg, (WPARAM) fwSizeType, MAKELPARAM(nHeight,nWidth)
Respond to this window message: WM_GETMINMAXINFO (lParam points to a MINMAXINFO structure).
Windows sends this message to a window whose size or position is about to change. For example, the message is sent when the user clicks Move or Size from the window menu or clicks the sizing border or title bar; the message is also sent when an application calls SetWindowPos to move or size the window.

case WM_SIZE:
#define HEIGHT_MAX 200
#define WIDTH_MAX 200
WORD fwSizeType = wParam; // resizing flag
int nWidth = LOWORD(lParam); // width of client area
int nHeight = HIWORD(lParam); // height of client area
if ( nHeight > HEIGHT_MAX) nHeight = HEIGHT_MAX;
if ( nWidth > WIDTH_MAX) nWidth = WIDTH_MAX;
return DefWindowProc(hWnd, msg, (WPARM) fwSizeType, MAKELPARAM(nHeight,nWidth)
break;
