Floppy Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Hello, I'm using this GUICreate("Form1", 977, 586, -1, -1, $WS_POPUPWINDOW) The problem is that the gui covers the taskbar. Is there a way to use $WS_POPUPWINDOW (i.e. create a gui without borders and titlebar) without covering taskbar? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guinness Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 You need to get the dimensions of the taskbar and then do some basic maths to calculate the dimensions required for your GUI.
