Getting "real" client-area of a FrameWnd

[C. Sonntag]

Hi!

I'm trying to get the size of the "real" client-area of the Framewindow of my MDI-application. That means the rectangle excluding all toolbars, statusbars and the menu.

I would be very pleased if somebody could help me

Regards

The best way to do it is to use
CWnd::GetClientRect( LPRECT lpRect )function, or the same API function
BOOL GetClientRect( HWND hWnd,LPRECT lpRect );

Try this:

CRect rc;
pMainFrame->RepositionBars(0, 0xFFFF, AFX_IDW_PANE_FIRST, reposQuery, &rc, NULL, TRUE);

The only restriction is to take care if calling from inside controlbar layout.
