How to create a sizeable dialog (under MFC)?

[Jay Jay]

I have already an dialog which is sizeable. Now i have a problem with this dialog. The dialog contains a ListControl. Now i want to set the size of the ListControl in proportion to the dialog when i use the maximize button. Can anyone help me with this problem? p.s.: it would be fine when you can explain it to me under MFC and no ATL because i don`t undersand this. :(( greets J.J. :cool:

Use your WM_SIZE method and look at MoveWindow to resize the control based on the size of the Window you are in. You may want to capture the size of your dialog at the start of your program so you can compare the sizes. BD

How about somthing like this? [code] // Resize the list control contained in the view to // fill the entire view when the view's window is // resized. CMyView is a CView derived class. void CMyDlg::OnSize(UINT nType, int cx, int cy) { CView::OnSize(nType, cx, cy); // Resize list to fill the whole view. if(nType == SIZE_MAXIMIZED) m_List.MoveWindow (0, 0, cx, cy); } [/code]
