I want to use SetWindowPlacement() to maximize my application window and I tried it with following WINDOWPLACEMENT structure: WINDOWPLACEMENT wndpl = { sizeof(WINDOWPLACEMENT), WPF_RESTORETOMAXIMIZED, SW_SHOWMINIMIZED, 0,0,0}; But SetWindowPlacement() fails. Does anyone know why? Visit our homepage: www.rarebyte.de.st GA

im not an api expert, but shouldnt you pass SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED instead of SW_SHOWMINIMIZED
call extended error information to get a better idea of what the problem is

I tried SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED first, it didn''t work;
I read that I must write SW_SHOWMINIMIZED if I give WPF_RESTORETOMAXIMIZED as 2nd parameter. But SetWindowPlacement() always returns 0 -> failure.
