But you are not using SW_MAXIMIZE. Did you not like my suggestion?

I don't want it to maximize, I want it to launch into full screen.

Like a kiosk, or a video game? If so, you'll need to use the WS_POPUP style instead of WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW. You'll also have to assign 0 to lpszMenuName.

Yeah, so you don't see the caption bar and the border.
So how will I use the WS_POPUP as code if someone could write a small bit of code just so I understand where to put it if you know what I mean.

Since I suggested using WS_POPUP instead of WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW, can you find in your code where WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW is currently being used and replace it with WS_POPUP?

Here it my code for the Create Window part, to see if I have done it right.
<br />
hwnd = CreateWindowEx(<br />
WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE,<br />
g_szClassName,<br />
"iWorld",<br />
WS_POPUP<br />
CW_USEDEFAULT, CW_USEDEFAULT, 1062, 735,<br />
NULL, NULL, hInstance, NULL);

Aside from the missing comma, what you have is right. To save confusion, you might want to use CW_USEDEFAULT or 0 for arguments 5-8.

The code ran successfully. But the application did not cover the entire screen in full screen it was just a client with no border to the top left.
I would like the full screen to cover the entire screen if you know what I mean.

I created a Win32 app with just the two changes I mentioned and it was indeed full screen.

David, I don't really understand the 5-8 argument part. I solved the other one.

You mean you don't want to see the caption bar of the window, and the border of the window?

Surely this does not compile for you. 
It should be:
hwnd = CreateWindowEx(WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE, g_szClassName, "My Project", WS_POPUP,
0, 0, 0, 0,
(HWND) NULL, (HMENU) NULL, hInstance, NULL);

Is there a reason you posted the same question later, after this one already got replies? Twice within a minute... That's being unlucky, and a technical issue.
Here's an article that makes a window be fullscreen:
Gribble1 - CWnd goes full screen[^]
It's based on MFC - but if you have the skills to make a virtual world program, I'm sure you can decode it. MFC is a very thin wrapper after all.
Good luck,
Iain.

Hi,
Is there any way I can get rid of the white border in full screen it makes the application look bad.
Andrew McIntyre

What white border?
See if the dimensions you are using match the screen size, and make sure you are drawing all the way to the edge.
Those are simple ideas, but the only ones I have!
Iain.

I am new to this forum,
Please refer to the c++ program and the output below. I understand the program but I have a small doubt regarding the output of the program. pls help.
# include <iostream.h>
# include <conio.h>
void main ( )
{
int x[5] = {1,2,3,4,5}, y [5] = {5,4,3,2,1},
result [5] = { 0,0,0,0,0 };
int i= 0,j=0;
clrscr();
while (i++ < 5)
{
cout<<i<<"\n";
result [i] = x [i] + y [i];
}
cout <<"\n The contents of the array are: \n";
do
{
cout << "\t" << x [j];
cout<< "\t" << y [j];
cout<<"\t"<< result [j]<<"\n";
j++;
} while (j<5);
getch ( );
}
While executing the output of the program is:-
1 -1 0
2 4 -2
3 3 0
4 2 2
5 1 4
How i get the output as 1 -1 0 in the first row especially I presume the output should be 1 5 0 in the first row. Please help.
thanks

Your computations go into result[1..5] using x[1..5] and y[1..5]. Those arrays are sized at [0..4] so you are exceeding the bounds of the arrays. Your printout uses [0..4] which is correct.
|
|
|
|
|
Thankyou sir but pls explain how I got the first row output especially the -1 in the middle. I need the same array dimension because its given that in a text book.
|
|
|
|
|
You exceeded the bounds of the array definition, what data you fetch or corrupt when you do that is up to the "memory alignment gods". Fix the program as suggested so that you do not exceed the array boundaries and you will stop getting wierd output.
