I have an MDI app using XTP 13.10, and the frame window is somehow clamped to the max size of the monitor is originally displays on (if it starts on video 1 set to 1920x2000, then it's impossible to stretch any wider than 1920. if it starts on a 1240x1024, then it won't get any bigger than 1240 wide).

I have tried changing the (cs.cx,cx.cy,cs.x,cs.z) values in PreCreateWindow(), but those only seem to apply to the original location. It aggravates my users - and me.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

PS: Here's my PreCreateWindow:

BOOL CMainFrame::PreCreateWindow(CREATESTRUCT& cs)

{

if( !CMDIFrameWnd::PreCreateWindow(cs) )

return FALSE;

cs.lpszClass = _T("XTPMainFrame");

CXTPDrawHelpers::RegisterWndClass(AfxGetInstanceHandle(), cs.lpszClass,

CS_DBLCLKS, AfxGetApp()->LoadIcon(IDR_MAINFRAME));

cs.style |= WS_CLIPCHILDREN|WS_CLIPSIBLINGS;

return TRUE;

}

It doesn't happen with any of the samples; I think it's something in my app. do you have an MSDN KB article reference? If it's an OS restriction and it doesn't happen to all apps, then there's a workaround somewhere.
