There is an event you could capture, it is called WM_GetMinMaxInfo.
Not sure if it will stop it in the method you want, but well worth a look.
The WM_GETMINMAXINFO message is sent to a window when the size or position of the
window is about to change. An application can use this message to override the
window's default maximized size and position, or its default minimum or maximum
tracking size.
WM_GETMINMAXINFO
lpmmi = (LPMINMAXINFO) lParam; // address of structure
Parameters
lpmmi
Value of lParam. Points to a MINMAXINFO structure that contains the default maximized
position and dimensions, and the default minimum and maximum tracking sizes. An
application can override the defaults by setting the members of this structure.
Return Values
If an application processes this message, it should return zero.
Remarks
The maximum tracking size is the largest window size that can be produced by using the
borders to size the window. The minimum tracking size is the smallest window size that
can be produced by using the borders to size the window.
