Detect window state (maximized or restored)

[Johpoke]

Im working in a dialog based MFC application in visual studio. And i need some way to check to see if the main window is maximized, filling the whole screen or restored, like a normal window. Is there some way i can like a if (Window.Restored == 1) etc? P.S. Im used to working in visual studio 6.0, but sometimes i work in .NET 2003, when in .NET 2003 how do i like open the wizard thingy, where i can like add events (like PreTranslateMessage etc) thanks!!

if (IsIconic(hwnd))
{
    // window is minimized
}
else if (IsZoomed(hwnd))
{
    // window is maximized
}
else
{
    // window is restored (neither minimized nor maximized)
}

Best wishes, Hans

Try using BOOL GetWindowPlacement( HWND hWnd, // handle to window WINDOWPLACEMENT *lpwndpl // position data ); . Regards, Paresh.
