A full screen window

[jcvignoud]

Hi everyone,

I use DialogBlocks to generate my frames (I genarate the xrc file). I want a full screen frame so I select the flag wxMAXIMIZE for my dialogblocks frame but when my soft is running and when I try to open that window I have an error message : unknown flag style wxMAXIMIZE !!!!

So how must I do to have my full screen window ?

Regards

JC

Do you get this same error if you create the frame by hand?

[wimvanherp]

with this function, you can get a fullscreen

bool ShowFullScreen(bool show, long style = wxFULLSCREEN_ALL)

Depending on the value of show parameter the window is either shown full screen or restored to its normal state. style is a bit list containing some or all of the following values, which indicate what elements of the window to hide in full-screen mode:


wxFULLSCREEN_NOMENUBAR
wxFULLSCREEN_NOTOOLBAR
wxFULLSCREEN_NOSTATUSBAR
wxFULLSCREEN_NOBORDER
wxFULLSCREEN_NOCAPTION
wxFULLSCREEN_ALL (all of the above)

Thank you for your help, the fonction ShowFullScreen() is exactly what I'm looking for.

I just have a new problem.

Now when my full-screen frame appear, the low of that is hide by Windows task bar. How must I do to adjust my frame to the right size or which flag I must use to specify than my frame is in front of the window's task bar?

Not sure, but I think this will do:

Code: Select all

long styleflag = GetWindowStyle();
SetWindowStyle(styleflag | wxSTAY_ON_TOP);

(seems to be Windows-only, according to the docs)
