Try MoveWindow(x1,y1,x2,y2);

GetClientRect and the CX and CY parameters of OnSize are the same. They are the size of the client rect (that rect minus the title bar, caption, edges).

When I have used GetClientRect() in the past it has always included the offset from the parents window as well. Has anybody else seen this problem?
I have to use this code :


CRect rect ;
CRect parent ;

GetClientRect(&rect) ;
GetParent()->GetWindowRect(&parent) ;
rect -= CPoint(parent.left, parent.top) ;




This gets the actual rectangle of the client area in client co-ordinates. Or can I just use ScreenToClient(&rect) to translate it correctly?
