The SetWindowPlacement function sets the show state and the restored, minimized, and maximized positions of the specified window.
BOOL SetWindowPlacement(
HWND hWnd, // handle to window
CONST WINDOWPLACEMENT *lpwndpl // address of structure with position data
);
Before calling SetWindowPlacement, set the length member of the WINDOWPLACEMENT structure to sizeof(WINDOWPLACEMENT). SetWindowPlacement fails if lpwndpl->length is not set correctly.
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.
If the information specified in WINDOWPLACEMENT would result in a window that is completely off the screen, the system will automatically adjust the coordinates so that the window is visible, taking into account changes in screen resolution and multiple monitor configuration.
The length member of WINDOWPLACEMENT must be set to sizeof(WINDOWPLACEMENT). If this member is not set correctly, the function returns FALSE. For additional remarks on the proper use of window placement coordinates, see WINDOWPLACEMENT.
