Statusbar disappears [message #6443]

Hi!

I see my statusbar disappear if I maximize the window. With no maximize everything is ok and also if I make the window zoomable the statusbar stays.

In constructor -> No statusbar:

AddFrame(m_Status);
Maximize();

In constructor -> Have statusbar:

AddFrame(m_Status);
Zoomable();
Maximize();

Is this normal? If yes what is the reason that the window must be zoomable. In booth cases the window is maximized to the whole screen. I'm using UPP 610 dev2 with Win2K.

Of course not. Hard to say what is wrong from so little info - please provide a simple testcase.

Hi!

Attached is a test case. If I enable the 'Zoomable()' I can see the statusbar. It seems to have something to do with the Icon. If there is no Icon then I can see the statusbar even with no 'Zoomable()', but the application extents itself over the taskbar at the bottom, which is not the case when Icon is used.

Maybe some small hidden bug somewhere.

I use Upp610dev2 on Win2K with mingw compiler.

I have test it - WinXP, upp611-dev1.

Without Zoomable() functionality in Maximize() mode window has the status bar, but hidden behind Windows task bar (always "one row" bellow top line of the task bar). Some bug with getting a height of available area?

Well, if I comment out "Maximize", everthing is OK.

This looks like Maximize for non-zoomable window is the problem...

Looks like win32 simply assigns too big area to the window when it is maximized and not zoomable.

Hi!

You can keep Maximize() and comment out "ICON..." then the statusbar is also visible. Why setting of the icon changes the visibility of the statusbar?

Not really a big problem, but a bit strange.
