SetWindowPlacement

3.1

BOOL SetWindowPlacement(hwnd, lpwndpl)
HWND hwnd;	/* handle of the window, */
const WINDOWPLACEMENT FAR* lpwndpl;	/* address of structure with position data	*/

The SetWindowPlacement function sets the show state and the normal (restored), minimized, and maximized positions for a window.

Parameters

hwnd

Identifies the window.

lpwndpl

Points to a WINDOWPLACEMENT structure that specifies the new show state and positions. The WINDOWPLACEMENT structure has the following form:

typedef struct tagWINDOWPLACEMENT {     /* wndpl */
    UINT  length;
    UINT  flags;
    UINT  showCmd;
    POINT ptMinPosition;
    POINT ptMaxPosition;
    RECT  rcNormalPosition;
} WINDOWPLACEMENT;

For a full description of this structure, see the Microsoft Windows Programmer's Reference, Volume 3.

Return Value

The return value is nonzero if the function is successful. Otherwise, it is zero.
