I'm having a minor problem with my program. If the user has minimized
the main window, and for whatever reason the OS does an automatic
reboot, then when the ini file that is written with all of the forms
settings including the position and size, the top and left variables are
written at -32000. When the user starts the program after the reboot,
the form is position off the desktop.
Prior to writing the form settings in the FormClosing Event, I test if
the form is minimized and if it is, restore the form to normal. This
event is running as the procedure to write the settings file is begin
executed, but the form never get un-minimized.
Any idea how to make this happen?
Assuming this is a Windows.Form application, handle the FormClosed event. The
event is passed a FormClosedEventArgs variable, which contains a CloseReason
property. This will be one of
None
The cause of the closure was not defined or could not be determined.
WindowsShutDown
The operating system is closing all applications before shutting down.
MdiFormClosing
The parent form of this multiple document interface (MDI) form is
closing.
UserClosing
The user is closing the form through the user interface (UI), for
example
by clicking the Close button on the form window, selecting Close from
the
window's control menu, or pressing ALT+F4.
TaskManagerClosing
The Microsoft Windows Task Manager is closing the application.
FormOwnerClosing
The owner form is closing.
ApplicationExitCall
The Exit method of the Application class was invoked.
I think the Automatic Reboot causes a WindowsShutDown to be signalled.
In any event, I tend to use code like this in my FormClosing events
My.Settings.WindowState_MainForm = Me.WindowState
If Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Normal Then
My.Settings.Size_MainForm = Me.Size
My.Settings.Location_MainForm = Me.Location
Else
My.Settings.Size_MainForm = Me.RestoreBounds.Size
My.Settings.Location_MainForm = Me.RestoreBounds.Location
End If
