MINIMIZEDMETRICS structure

Contains the scalable metrics associated with minimized windows. This structure is used with the SystemParametersInfo function when the SPI_GETMINIMIZEDMETRICS or SPI_SETMINIMIZEDMETRICS action value is specified.

Syntax

typedef struct tagMINIMIZEDMETRICS {
  UINT cbSize;
  int  iWidth;
  int  iHorzGap;
  int  iVertGap;
  int  iArrange;
} MINIMIZEDMETRICS, *PMINIMIZEDMETRICS, *LPMINIMIZEDMETRICS;

Members

cbSize

The size of the structure, in bytes. The caller must set this to sizeof(MINIMIZEDMETRICS).

iWidth

The width of minimized windows, in pixels.

iHorzGap

The horizontal space between arranged minimized windows, in pixels.

iVertGap

The vertical space between arranged minimized windows, in pixels.

iArrange

The starting position and direction used when arranging minimized windows. The starting position must be one of the following values.

Value	Meaning
ARW_BOTTOMLEFT 0x0000L	Start at the lower-left corner of the work area.
ARW_BOTTOMRIGHT 0x0001L	Start at the lower-right corner of the work area.
ARW_TOPLEFT 0x0002L	Start at the upper-left corner of the work area.
ARW_TOPRIGHT 0x0003L	Start at the upper-right corner of the work area.

 

The direction must be one of the following values.

Value	Meaning
ARW_LEFT 0x0000L	Arrange left (valid with ARW_BOTTOMRIGHT and ARW_TOPRIGHT only).
ARW_RIGHT 0x0000L	Arrange right (valid with ARW_BOTTOMLEFT and ARW_TOPLEFT only).
ARW_UP 0x0004L	Arrange up (valid with ARW_BOTTOMLEFT and ARW_BOTTOMRIGHT only).
ARW_DOWN 0x0004L	Arrange down (valid with ARW_TOPLEFT and ARW_TOPRIGHT only).
ARW_HIDE 0x0008L	Hide minimized windows by moving them off the visible area of the screen.
