Hello,
I use the System.DesktopWidth and System.DesktopHeight values to define the main window. But how is it possible to have the height of the system taskbar?
Regards

Hello,
It is possible with the following C-function:
Code: Select all
HB_FUNC ( GETTASKBARHEIGHT )
{
HWND hTaskBar;
RECT rc;
int nHeight;
hTaskBar = FindWindow( "Shell_TrayWnd", NULL );
GetWindowRect(hTaskBar, &rc);
nHeight = rc.bottom - rc.top;
hb_retni( nHeight );
}
Usage:
nTaskBarHeight := GetTaskBarHeight()
I hope that helps

I do the same as Chris on my main window setup, and too had wondered about the taskbar.
Thanks for this information.
