Windows to small ?

[Jimmy]

hi,

i try to place 2 x Control into Window but they do not "fit"

Code: Select all | Expand

#include "fivewin.ch"

PROCEDURE Main()
LOCAL oWnd, oSay1, oSay2

   DEFINE WINDOW oWnd FROM 0, 0 TO 600, 800 PIXEL TITLE "TVIP"
       oSay1 := TSay():new(0,000,{ || "Hello" },oWnd,,,.T.,,.T.,.T.,,,400,600 )
       oSay2 := TSay():new(0,400,{ || "World" },oWnd,,,.T.,,.T.,.T.,,,400,300 )
#IFDEF __HMG__
   END WINDOW
#ENDIF
   ACTIVATE WINDOW oWnd CENTERED
RETURN

oSay2 are not full "fit" oWnd as oWnd is about 16 Pixel "to samll" ( do size on right site to see Frame of oSay2 )

what i´m doing wrong

   nSayHt   := oRect:nHeight / 2
   nSayWd   := oRect:nWidth

   @      0,0 SAY oSay1 PROMPT "Hello" SIZE nSayWd,nSayHt PIXEL OF oWnd COLOR CLR_WHITE,CLR_BLUE  RIGHT
   @ nSayHt,0 SAY oSay2 PROMPT "World" SIZE nSayWd,nSayHt PIXEL OF oWnd COLOR CLR_WHITE,CLR_GREEN RIGHT

   ACTIVATE WINDOW oWnd CENTERED

return nil

hi,

your Sample want 400,600 but got 394,587

start App
press ALT Print-Screen
open Windows Paint and press CTRL + V

now Paint will show you Size of Bitmap

so why is a WINDOWS by FiveWin "to small"

[nageswaragunupudi]

Let us leave FiveWin for a moment.

When we create a Window, we specify outer bounds of the Window. This is the total area occupied by the window on the screen. For this purpose, we can use windows functions CreateWindow(...) or CreateWindowEx(...), either ANSI/WIDE.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/window ... atewindowa

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/window ... ewindowexa

The parameters x,y,nwidth,nheight define the outer coordinates of the window.

The total area of the Window consists of Client Area and non-client area.

Non client area consists of the space occupied by the title bar, menu bar (if any) and other parts of the window's border. Remaining area is the client area. Extent of the client and non-client areas depend on the style, theme, menu, etc of the window.

We can paint in the Client Area only.
To know what is the client area, we use the windows function:
GetClientArea( hWnd, lpRect )
Obviously the Client Area is smaller than the Total Area.

This is exactly the same when using FWH.
DEFINE WINDOW creates a window using either CreateWindowA() or CreateWindowExW() depending on whether the application is ANSI or Unicode.

We can use simplified functions of FWH:
GetClientArea( hWnd ) --> aRect
oWnd:GetCliRect() --> oRect

hi,

thx for Answer.

i do NOT talk about Client Area.

so your Function :

Code: Select all | Expand

GetClientArea( hWnd ) --> aRect
oWnd:GetCliRect() --> oRect

have nothing to do with my "Problem"

---

please try

Code: Select all | Expand

start App
press ALT Print-Screen
open Windows Paint and press CTRL + V

now Paint will show you Size of Bitmap == "real" SIZE of WINDOW

Result of WINDOW is not as expect ...
what i´m doing wrong with FiveWin

[nageswaragunupudi]

My replies were in response to your first post. You have created controls with the same width as the total width of the window and incorrectly concluded that window is "too small".

Next:

now Paint will show you Size of Bitmap == "real" SIZE of WINDOW

Not correct.

The window is created by Windows OS. (API CreateWindow(...))
The window is displayed on the screen and managed by Windows OS.
So, the most reliable way of ascertaining the accurate width and height of the window is to ask the Windows OS itself and get the authentic information from the horse's mouth, by using the API call

Code: Select all | Expand

GetWindowRect( hWnd, lpRect );
width = rct.right - rct.left;
height= rct.bottom - rct.top;
 

Here is a sample showing real width and height of window, as ascertained from Windows OS itself.

Code: Select all | Expand

#include "fivewin.ch"

function Main()

   local oWnd

   DEFINE WINDOW oWnd

   oWnd:nWidth    := 300
   oWnd:nHeight   := 200

   oWnd:bPainted := <||
      local aSize := GetWndSize( oWnd:hWnd )
      oWnd:SayText( "Width  : " + hb_ntoc( aSize[ 1 ] ) + CRLF + ;
                    "Height : " + hb_ntoc( aSize[ 2 ] ) )
      return nil
      >

   ACTIVATE WINDOW oWnd CENTERED

return nil

#pragma BEGINDUMP

#include <hbapi.h>
#include <windows.h>

HB_FUNC_STATIC( GETWNDSIZE )     //  hWnd  -->  { nWidth, nHeight }
{
   HWND hWnd = ( HWND ) hb_parnl( 1 );

   RECT rct;

   rct.top    = 0;
   rct.left   = 0;
   rct.bottom = 0;
   rct.right  = 0;

   if( hWnd )
      GetWindowRect( hWnd, &rct );

   hb_reta( 2 );
   hb_storvni( rct.right - rct.left, -1, 1 );
   hb_storvni( rct.bottom - rct.top, -1, 2 );
}

hi,

you are right that i have 2 x 400 Size "inside" which must be some "Frame" smaller.

but WINDOW is "smaller" under FiverWin than under Xbase++ or HMG

i have not made RULER under FiveWin yet but here are HMG Code

i do NOT agree about ALT+PrintScreen -> Paste into PAINT that SIZE is "wrong"

your Sample want 400,600 but got 394,587 under FiveWin 22.07 ( BCC7 32 Bit )
PAINT and my both RULER show same Size 394,587 which is (much) smaller than expect 400,600

---

open PAINT and make a Bitmap with 400 x 600 Color RED
start you App and move it over Bitmap

you will "see" RED Backgound of Bitmap while FiveWin App does NOT cover hole Area
so what i´m doing wrong
