WindowState Property (AForm)

Returns or sets the visual state of the form window at run time.

Syntax

Object.WindowState [ = enWindowState ]

The WindowState property syntax has the following parts:

Name	Type	Description
Object	AForm	AForm object
enWindowState	enumAFormWindowState	An integer specifying the visual state of the form window at run time.

Where

enumAFormWindowState:

Name	Value	Description
aformWindowStateNormal	0	Normal
aformWindowStateMinimized	1	Minimized
aformWindowStateMaximized	2	Maximized

Comments

Before a form is displayed, the WindowState property is always set to "Normal", regardless of its initial setting. This is reflected in the Height, Left, ScaleHeight, ScaleWidth, Top, and Width property settings.

After a form is shown, if it is then hidden, the Height, Left, ScaleHeight, ScaleWidth, Top, and Width properties retain their settings until the form is displayed again, even if the WindowState property is changed.

Example

The following statement changes the AForm WindowState to maximized:

frm1.WindowState=aformWindowStateMaximized

Applies to

AForm
