- First, I'd just like to thank everyone who responded to my 2 previous
- posts. You've been extremely helpful.
-
-
- Now the problem:
-
- I am writing an MDI application that I based on an example program
- delivered with BC++3.1 as part of their Resource Workshop demo (rwcdemo).
-
- The problem is that when a child window is maximized, it dissapears and
- there is no way to get it back. Experimenting a little, I decided to
- add scroll bars (WS_HSCROLL | WS_VSCROLL) to the style in MDICREATESTRUCT
- and when I maximize this window, the scroll bars appear where they should
- (butted up to the border of the frame window, but the system menu and
- restore bitmap don't appear on the menu bar.
-
- I have looked at several books and it seems like maximizing an MDI child
- and getting the required behaviour is the default (i.e. I shouldn't have
- to handle the message myself right?). The Borland example has the
- same behaviour as my application.
-
- Anyone have any ideas?
