Adapt window size

gmlnd

I'm trying to adapt the size of window so it can fit with different resolutions based on the monitor size?

dc.GetDeviceCaps(HORZRES) dc.GetDeviceCaps(VERTRES) will tell you the size of the display -c

Can I do the following in the OnDraw function? CRect rc; SystemParametersInfo(SPI_GETWORKAREA,0,rc,0);

Chris Losinger

yes, but don't. OnDraw is called pretty much all the time, and you don't want to do things in the OnDraw function that will cause drawing to be required (such as resizing the window) - that leads to trouble. -c

If I use this method, will it matter which function I put this in? dc.GetDeviceCaps(HORZRES) dc.GetDeviceCaps(VERTRES) All I need to adapt to different resolutions is to GetDeviceCaps? What is dc? Thank's.
