How to create full screen window with MFC?
I want to create full screen topmost (screen saver) window with MFC? How to create such full screen window in MFC? I tried to create win32 application and i am able to create fullscreen top most 开发者_JAVA百科window but i want to create using MFC so later i can put different MFC controls on that window?
Please help me.
Thanks, Jim.
I think removing the border from the dialog resource and showing the window as maximized (ShowWindow(SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED)
) should do the job.
As for topmost use the System Modal style in the dialog resource.
I do it with a Dialog Box app. In the resource editor properties for the dialog resource, set Border=None and Title Bar=False to eliminate all border elements. In OnInitDialog, use the following to resize the dialog to the entire desktop:
CRect rcDesktop;
rcDesktop.left = GetSystemMetrics(SM_XVIRTUALSCREEN);
rcDesktop.right = rcDesktop.left + GetSystemMetrics(SM_CXVIRTUALSCREEN);
rcDesktop.top = GetSystemMetrics(SM_YVIRTUALSCREEN);
rcDesktop.bottom = rcDesktop.top + GetSystemMetrics(SM_CYVIRTUALSCREEN);
MoveWindow(rcDesktop, FALSE);
This code works on multiple monitors, unlike maximizing the window.
No need to worry about making the window topmost, Windows will display it on a dedicated desktop with no other windows present.
You should be able to adapt the example code here to do what you want:
