The code

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <WinAPI.au3>

Global $hGUI = GUICreate("TEST", 300, 300, -1, -1, $WS_SIZEBOX + $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX + $WS_MINIMIZEBOX)
Global $aGUI = WinGetClientSize($hGUI)
If @error Or Not IsArray($aGUI) Then Exit

Global $hChild = GUICreate("", $aGUI[0], $aGUI[1], 0, 0, $WS_POPUP, $WS_EX_MDICHILD, $hGUI)
GUISetBkColor(0xFF0000, $hChild)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hChild)

While 1
    $aMsg = GUIGetMsg(1)
    Switch $aMsg[1]
        Case $hGUI
            Switch $aMsg[0]
                Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                    GUIDelete($hGUI)
                    GUIDelete($hChild)
                    Exit
            EndSwitch
    EndSwitch
WEnd

The result:

As you can see is not aligned or is the same size of the inside of the parent gui, the expected result. How to solve? After solved that, the second part is resize the child if the parent is resized. Thanks

Terenz,

I have seen this before with resizable GUIs - it seems that the increased border size interferes with the child GUI location. I will look into it and see if I can come up with a work-a-round.

Terenz,

Here you go:

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <WinAPI.au3>

$hGUI = GUICreate("TEST", 300, 300, Default, Default, BitOR($WS_SIZEBOX, $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX, $WS_MINIMIZEBOX))
GUISetBkColor(0x00FF00, $hGUI)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)

$iDiff = _WinAPI_GetSystemMetrics(7) - _WinAPI_GetSystemMetrics(32) ; Size frame - Fixed frame
$aGUI = WinGetClientSize($hGUI)

$hChild = GUICreate("", $aGUI[0], $aGUI[1], $iDiff, $iDiff, $WS_POPUP, $WS_EX_MDICHILD, $hGUI)
GUISetBkColor(0xFF0000, $hChild)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hChild)

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

And note how you should combine styles - the Setting Styles tutorial in the Wiki explains why this is the case.

Does this fit:

 

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <WinAPI.au3>

Global $hGUI = GUICreate("TEST", 300, 300, -1, -1, BitOR($WS_SIZEBOX, $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX, $WS_MINIMIZEBOX))
Global $aGUI = WinGetClientSize($hGUI)
If @error Or Not IsArray($aGUI) Then Exit

Global $hChild = GUICreate("", $aGUI[0], $aGUI[1], 0, 0, $WS_CHILD, $WS_EX_MDICHILD)
GUISetBkColor(0xFF0000, $hChild)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hChild)

While 1
    $aMsg = GUIGetMsg(1)
    Switch $aMsg[1]
        Case $hGUI
            Switch $aMsg[0]
                Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                    GUIRegisterMsg($WM_SIZE, "")
                    GUIDelete($hGUI)
                    GUIDelete($hChild)
                    Exit
            EndSwitch
    EndSwitch
WEnd

 

Or this one:

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <WinAPI.au3>

Global $iDelta = 10 ;just to show resizing
Global $hGUI = GUICreate("TEST", 300, 300, -1, -1, BitOR($WS_SIZEBOX, $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX, $WS_MINIMIZEBOX))
Global $aGUI = WinGetClientSize($hGUI)
If @error Or Not IsArray($aGUI) Then Exit
GUISetBkColor(0xFF00FF, $hGUI)
Global $hChild = GUICreate("test2", $aGUI[0] - $iDelta, $aGUI[1] - $iDelta, 0, 0, $WS_CHILD, -1, $hGUI)
GUISetBkColor(0xFF0000, $hChild)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hChild)

GUIRegisterMsg($WM_SIZE, "WM_SIZE")

While 1
    $aMsg = GUIGetMsg(1)
    Switch $aMsg[1]
        Case $hGUI
            Switch $aMsg[0]
                Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                    GUIRegisterMsg($WM_SIZE, "")
                    GUIDelete($hGUI)
                    GUIDelete($hChild)
                    Exit
            EndSwitch
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func WM_SIZE($hWnd, $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam)
    #forceref $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam
    Switch $hWnd
        Case $hGUI
            Local $tRect = _WinAPI_GetClientRect($hWnd)
            WinMove($hChild, "", $tRect.Left, $tRect.Top, _WinAPI_LoWord($lParam) - $iDelta, _WinAPI_HiWord($lParam) - $iDelta)
    EndSwitch
    Return $GUI_RUNDEFMSG
EndFunc   ;==>WM_SIZE

Modified the WM_SIZE code from InunoTaishou (next post)!

Looks like it's been solved already but I figured I'd throw this out there. Since you're going to be working with resizable GUI's, and only the main one is going to be resized (at least in the example given), check out the WM_SIZE message for keeping the child in the client area

GUIRegisterMsg($WM_SIZE, "WM_SIZE")

Func WM_SIZE($hWndFrom, $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam)
    #forceref $hWndFrom, $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam
    Local $iWidth = _WinAPI_LoWord($lParam)
    Local $iHeight = _WinAPI_HiWord($lParam)
    Local $tRect = _WinAPI_GetClientRect($hWndFrom)
    
    If ($hWndFrom = $hGUI) Then
        _WinAPI_ClientToScreen($hWndFrom, $tRect)
        WinMove($hChild, "", DllStructGetData($tRect, "Left"), DllStructGetData($tRect, "Top"), $iWidth, $iHeight)
    EndIf

    Return $GUI_RUNDEFMSG
EndFunc   ;==>WM_SIZE

This just resizes the child to always fit the size of the parent but you can use it to resize the child when the main is too big or too small.
