DDT Menu Height

[Neil Hosgood]

Hiya people,
Quick question. how can I get the height of a DDT menu?
I have tried Control get size and GetWindowRect but always
end up with 0.

Any ideas?

Thanx in advance,
N.

There is no difference between SDK & DDT. So you can use GetSystemMetrics(%SM_CYMENU).
But doubt that you need it.

Typically it's necessary to have certain size of client area.
For DDT:
1) Using GetWindowRect & GetClientRect, to calculate difference in pixels (dx, dy) between window and client area's sizes.
2) To translate a size of client area from units to pixels (Dialog Units To Pixela) - x, y.
3) To set new window size (x + dx, y + dy), using SetWindowPos.
