I have a custom windows implementation in a WPF app that hooks WM_GETMINMAXINFO as follows:
private void MaximiseWithTaskbar(System.IntPtr hwnd, System.IntPtr lParam)
{
MINMAXINFO mmi = (MINMAXINFO)Marshal.PtrToStructure(lParam, typeof(MINMAXINFO));
System.IntPtr monitor = MonitorFromWindow(hwnd, MONITOR_DEFAULTTONEAREST);
if (monitor != System.IntPtr.Zero)
{
MONITORINFO monitorInfo = new MONITORINFO();
GetMonitorInfo(monitor, monitorInfo);
RECT rcWorkArea = monitorInfo.rcWork;
RECT rcMonitorArea = monitorInfo.rcMonitor;
mmi.ptMaxPosition.x = Math.Abs(rcWorkArea.left - rcMonitorArea.left);
mmi.ptMaxPosition.y = Math.Abs(rcWorkArea.top - rcMonitorArea.top);
mmi.ptMaxSize.x = Math.Abs(rcWorkArea.right - rcWorkArea.left);
mmi.ptMaxSize.y = Math.Abs(rcWorkArea.bottom - rcWorkArea.top);
mmi.ptMinTrackSize.x = Convert.ToInt16(this.MinWidth * (desktopDpiX / 96));
mmi.ptMinTrackSize.y = Convert.ToInt16(this.MinHeight * (desktopDpiY / 96));
}
Marshal.StructureToPtr(mmi, lParam, true);
}
It all works a treat and it allows me to have a borderless window maximized without having it sit on to of the task bar, which is great, but it really doesn't like being moved between monitors with the new Win7 keyboard shortcuts.
Whenever the app is moved with Win+Shift+Left/Right the WM_GETMINMAXINFO message is received, as I'd expect, but MonitorFromWindow(hwnd, MONITOR_DEFAULTTONEAREST) returns the monitor the application has just been moved FROM, rather than the monitor it is moving TO, so if the monitors are of differing resolutions the window end up the wrong size.
I'm not sure if there's something else I can call, other then MonitorFromWindow, or whether there's a "moving monitors" message I can hook prior to WM_GETMINMAXINFO. I'm assuming there is a way to do it because "normal" windows work just fine.
