 Posted: Tue Mar 19, 2002 11:16 am Post subject: Centre Any Application Window? |
 |
|
Hopefully a simple one...
What would be the standard way to centre, say an Excel window?
I know it would be a combination of obtaining the current screen resolution and current size of the named window.
Help?
Thanks

Here is a quick fix 
| Code: |
%%win = #MyWindowClass
%%sh = @sysinfo(screenheight)
%%sw = @sysinfo(screenwidth)
parse "%w;%h",@winpos(%%win,WH)
%%nt = @div(@diff(%%sh,%h),2)
%%nl = @div(@diff(%%sw,%w),2)
rem %%nt has the new top position
rem %%nl has the new left position
window position,%%win,%%nt,%%nl

Ok...on a similar vein.
If I had, say four windows and I wanted them to cover the screen in equal sizes/quadrants?

Ok, Here it is. The Variables [%%win#] are
set to window ID numbers that I just used to test the code. You
can replace thoes numbers with other ID #'s, Class names or
window titles. The best way to do it, is to use ither the ID # or
Class name.
| Code: |
%%win1 = "%3904"
%%win2 = "%524"
%%win3 = "%3912"
%%win4 = "%1856"
%%sw = @sysinfo(screenwidth)
%%sh = @sysinfo(screenheight)
%%sw2 = @div(%%sw,2)
%%sh2 = @div(%%sh,2)
window position,%%win1,0,0,%%sw2,%%sh2
window position,%%win2,%%sh2,0,%%sw2,%%sh2
window position,%%win3,0,%%sw2,%%sw2,%%sh2
window position,%%win4,%%sh2,%%sw2,%%sw2,%%sh2

Take Care and have fun!

When you said "give me a few", I expected hours, not minutes!
I think I have used up your generosity today...maybe tomorrow? <grin>
Thanks again
