MINIMIZEDMETRICS

The MINIMIZEDMETRICS structure contains the scalable metrics associated with minimized windows. This structure is used with the SystemParametersInfo function when the SPI_GETMINIMIZEDMETRICS or SPI_SETMINIMIZEDMETRICS action value is specified.

typedef struct tagMINIMIZEDMETRICS { 
    UINT    cbSize; 
    int     iWidth; 
    int     iHorzGap; 
    int     iVertGap; 
    int     iArrange; 
}   MINIMIZEDMETRICS, FAR *LPMINIMIZEDMETRICS; 
 

Members

cbSize

Specifies the size of the structure, in bytes.

iWidth

Specifies the width, in pixels, of minimized windows.

iHorzGap and iVertGap

Specifies the amount of horizontal and vertical space, in pixels, between arranged minimized windows.

iArrange

Specifies the starting position and direction used when arranging minimized windows. The starting position must be one of the following values:

Value	Meaning
ARW_BOTTOMLEFT	Start at the lower-left corner of the work area.
ARW_BOTTOMRIGHT	Start at the lower-right corner of the work area.
ARW_TOPLEFT	Start at the upper-left corner of the work area.
ARW_TOPRIGHT	Start at the upper-right corner of the work area.

The direction must be one of the following values:

Value	Meaning
ARW_LEFT	Arrange left (valid with ARW_BOTTOMRIGHT and ARW_TOPRIGHT only).
ARW_RIGHT	Arrange right (valid with ARW_BOTTOMLEFT and ARW_TOPLEFT only).
ARW_UP	Arrange up (valid with ARW_BOTTOMLEFT and ARW_BOTTOMRIGHT only).
ARW_DOWN	Arrange down (valid with ARW_TOPLEFT and ARW_TOPRIGHT only).
