in win 10, maximized window won’t drag

Hi. I turned off snap and now a maximized window on my desktop won’t drag and get smaller.

I browsed this site and did the Restorehealth in the command prompt thing, also sys scannow with no help.

In regedit, my hkey current user control panel desktop Drag from Maximum is set to «1».

How do I keep snap off and be able to drag maximized windows?

Don’t maximize it and then you can drag its edges to make it full size if you want that — and then you can move it by grabbing the title bar.

Click the little square icon to the left of the top right x on the title bar.

That’s not a fix.

Comon, I could drag a maximized window for the 2 years I’ve had the laptop, until a few days ago. Something changed and I want to set it back.

I could drag a maximized window

Mike is right. If the window is maximized the window’s window menu will prevent you from moving or resizing it and that has always been the case. Use Alt-Space to see this. Restore, Minimize and Close are your only options in this state. So almost certainly you would have been dragging a maximally sized window. In that case everything except Restore would have been available—a sign that the window is in its normal mode.

You certainly respond with some implied authority. So in your vast and insightful vision of all beings using a computer, I’ve not clicked the little square icon at the top any window but have always been dragging the corners to make it appear maximized.

Well shucks, I’ve forgotten this little exercise, which I must have done countless times. Wow!! Scratching my head. EXCUSE ME!

But really, there’s some disconnect here. Like I said, I maximize some windows, but did not have to click the double-box icon to reduce the size. All I had to do was drag from the title bar and the window reduced to the previous non-maximized size.

Comon, if you don’t want to explain or don’t know, just say so.

You can do that using the Snap windows feature but check out the window menu when you do that. E.g. press Win+CursorUp ; that snaps the window to Maximized. Press Alt-Space to see that only the menu items I mentioned before for a maximized window are available. When you are using the Snap windows feature with your pointer you need to drag it up first and observe the ghost maximized frame before clicking to make it snap to Maximized mode. An analogous procedure is needed when you want to snap a window left or right. Then I think the use of the pointer for a half screen may be clearer when snapping a window into a new mode and undoing the snap.

So, to clarify the original discussion, you weren’t really dragging a maximized window you were moving your pointer in a way that looked as if you were but in fact were only doing that to change the window’s mode and size.

Windows 10, multi Monitor, maximized window blank/empty space on top of screen

This problem happens with all windows when maximized.

When the window is maximized there is a bar at the top of the screen through which i can see my desktop. Its like that range that the window can maximize has been shortened.

Here is the link from reddit and this is the exact issue i am having.

We did install all the latest and greatest patch that are available of today and nothing seems to work.

In that Reddit thread, there is a suggestion that worked for me.

Right click desktop, go to Intel HD Graphics settings. Select Display and then choose the option Scale Full Screen . Make sure the option Override Application Settings has the checkbox marked.

Same annoying issue here on Windows 10 x64 1803 with all updates until now!
The issue appears on several apps (chrome, IE, eagle, . ) so it does’nt depends on the app.
My setup is: 2x HDMI/DVI 24″ Monitors on an Radeon HD 5450. Internal Intel GPU is not used.

The issue just happend recently sind a few weeks.
I have found an workaround which helps at least for me:

* Open Task Manager
* Goto Tab Details
* select dwm.exe and click «Kill Proccess»

dwm.exe will be closed and restarted automatically from windows and issue is gone.
Yeah i’ll know, its a rather annoying workaround but the quickest for me until a real solution pops up.

WPF Maximized Window bigger than screen

When creating a WPF window with AllowsTransparency=»True» WindowStyle=»None» and maximizing it via this.WindowState = WindowState.Maximized; the Window gets bigger than my screen.

When setting AllowTransparency=»False» i have a border around my Window, but the window won’t get bigger than my screen.
In my Case I have a 1920×1080 screen and the window becomes 1934×1094.
On my 1280×1024 screen the window will become 1294×1038.
The Window will become still as big as this, whether or not AllowTransparency is enabled or not, yet with it disabled it works properly.

Setting AllowTransparency before maximizing doesen’t work and throws an InvalidOperationException.

How to get a WPF window without a Windows-style border, but yet to maximize properly?

A couple year late to the party but just increase your this.borderthickness for the SizeChanged event like so:

It seems a pretty common issue. It appears you’ll have to bind your height and width to the actual height/width of the screen as stated in this StackOverflow post:

I hope that solves the issue you’re facing.

If you only care about the correct dimensions of your window and have no trouble with the appearance, you can wrap the contents of the window in System.Windows.Controls.Canvas like this:

Then you can use MyCanvas.ActualWidth and MyCanvas.ActualHeight to get the resolution of the current screen, with DPI settings taken into account and in device independent units. It doesn’t add any margins like the maximized window itself does. It should work with multiple monitors too.

(Canvas accepts UIElement s as children, so you should be able to use it with any content.)

Unfortunately there is no good solution to this other than to make a WindowStyle=»None» window without resizing, and handle everything yourself. This means your own maximize/minimize/restore buttons that set the window dimensions to fit the screen. Your own live caption area for dragging. Your own borders with the appropriate cursors. Your own double-click handler to maximize/restore. Your own routine for checking the mouse position against the height of the screen for drag-to-dock. Etc. You get the idea. It’s a pain in the neck, but if you do it once at least you’ll have it for all future projects. Unfortunately you will lose the «Aero» animations, but alas.

I also want to point out one reason why this issue is very important. In at least some cases, WPF can’t make full use of accelerated graphics when windows span two monitors (as they normally do any time a window is maximized). That means performance of D3DImage , as well as any Effect , suffers when the window is maximized. It was happening for me, and many of my users, which is what drew my attention to this issue.

set this property of you window.

Hope this will work

Метод DoCmd. Maximize (Access) DoCmd.Maximize method (Access)

Метод Maximize выполняет действие Maximize в Visual Basic. The Maximize method carries out the Maximize action in Visual Basic.

Синтаксис Syntax

Expression. Развернуть expression.Maximize

выражение: переменная, представляющая объект DoCmd. expression A variable that represents a DoCmd object.

Примечания Remarks

С помощью метода Maximize можно увеличить активное окно, чтобы оно заполнило окно Microsoft Access. You can use the Maximize method to enlarge the active window so that it fills the Microsoft Access window. Это действие позволит увидеть максимально возможный объем объекта в активном окне. This action will allow you to see as much of the object in the active window as possible.

Можно использовать метод RESTORE для восстановления предыдущего размера развернутого окна. You can use the Restore method to restore a maximized window to its previous size.

Возможно, вам потребуется использовать метод SelectObject , если окно, которое вы хотите развернуть, не является активным окном. You may need to use the SelectObject method if the window that you want to maximize isn’t the active window.

При развертывании окна в Access все остальные окна также размещаются в развернутом состоянии при открытии или переключении на них. When you maximize a window in Access, all other windows are also maximized when you open them or switch to them. Однако всплывающие формы не развернуты. However, pop-up forms aren’t maximized. Если вы хотите, чтобы форма состроила свой размер при разворачивании других окон, установите для свойства Popup значение true. If you want a form to maintain its size when other windows are maximized, set its PopUp property to True.

Этот метод невозможно применить к окнам модулей в редакторе Visual Basic (VBE). This method cannot be applied to module windows in the Visual Basic Editor (VBE). Сведения о том, как повлиять на окна модулей, представлены в разделе свойство WindowState . For information about how to affect module windows, see the WindowState property topic.

WM_SIZE message

Sent to a window after its size has changed.

A window receives this message through its WindowProc function.

Parameters

The type of resizing requested. This parameter can be one of the following values.

Value	Meaning
SIZE_MAXHIDE 4	Message is sent to all pop-up windows when some other window is maximized.
SIZE_MAXIMIZED 2	The window has been maximized.
SIZE_MAXSHOW 3	Message is sent to all pop-up windows when some other window has been restored to its former size.
SIZE_MINIMIZED 1	The window has been minimized.
SIZE_RESTORED 0	The window has been resized, but neither the SIZE_MINIMIZED nor SIZE_MAXIMIZED value applies.

The low-order word of lParam specifies the new width of the client area.

The high-order word of lParam specifies the new height of the client area.

Return value

Type: LRESULT

If an application processes this message, it should return zero.

Example

Remarks

If the SetScrollPos or MoveWindow function is called for a child window as a result of the WM_SIZE message, the bRedraw or bRepaint parameter should be nonzero to cause the window to be repainted.

Although the width and height of a window are 32-bit values, the lParam parameter contains only the low-order 16 bits of each.

The DefWindowProc function sends the WM_SIZE and WM_MOVE messages when it processes the WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGED message. The WM_SIZE and WM_MOVE messages are not sent if an application handles the WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGED message without calling DefWindowProc.
