I'm looking for ways to get the Dock/Taskbar height and position on the screen. I need them so I can set an app window to the full screen without covering these two items up.
It seems that there should be an entry in the Windows Registry for the taskbar height and position on the screen. I have poked around in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Explorer are but found nothing. Searches on google haven't turned up anything either.
As for the Dock, I found the .plist that stores info on it at: /System/Library/CoreServices/Dock.app/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/ DockMenus.plist but didn't see anything which stated what it's current settings were.
Trevor, I think the default WindowBoundingRect will sort this out for you, but not when the IDE is present (the IDE gets to it before your code can). See useful stuff from Ken Ray and others (including what to query in the Registry) under the subject 'Leaving room for the title bar' on the list in the last few days. I think you'll find the TaskBar is also taken into account.
