I have searched the SDK, spent a lot of time moving up and down paths
using Xray, and keep coming up dry.
All I want to do is create a maximized window, actually not create it, I
wan't to maximize an open window. Not one that is the same size as the
desktop, a Maximized window state.
If there really is no such thing in the API, then how do I get a Hwnd, I
saw mention of it once but now can't find it, to a top level window so
that I can call a win32 function. Kind of hate to make this OS specific
however.
You are right ... currently there is no function on the window API to
maximize nor minimize a toolkit window.
May be we should change that next time it's possible.
But you can retrieve the native window handle (e.g. HWND on windows).
Cast the window to the interface css.awt.XSystemDependentWindowPeer
and call it's method getWindowHandle(). The parameter ProcessId can be
ignored (use an empty array) ... but the second parameter SystemType
must be from type css.lang.SystemDependent.
The return value itselfs depend from the used SystemType parameter.
Please read the document of the interface.
Here a basic macro, which shows the needed steps:
sub maximize
frame = StarDesktop.getActiveFrame()
window = frame.getContainerWindow()
handle = window.getWindowHandle(dimarray(), 1) ' 1=WIN32
msgbox handle
end sub
Any help would really be appreciated.
