How to set a window to the right-down corner of the screen (not including the taskbar)? Can I accomplish it with CreateWindowEx? But I only saw CW_USEDEFAULT and there is no CW_ to set it to the corner.
HWND hwnd = CreateWindowEx(
NULL,
DUCKPROC_CLASS_NAME,
DUCKPROC_WINDOW_TIP_NAME,
WS_BORDER| WS_VISIBLE,
CW_USEDEFAULT,
CW_USEDEFAULT,
CW_USEDEFAULT,
CW_USEDEFAULT,
NULL,
NULL,
GetModuleHandle(NULL),
NULL
);
This is an example of placing the window to right bottom corner. (Here I set window's width and height are both 200.)
RECT desktopRect;
if (!GetWindowRect(GetDesktopWindow(), &desktopRect))
return FALSE;
int windowWidth = 200;
int windowHeight = 200;
int posX = desktopRect.right - windowWidth;
int posY = desktopRect.bottom - windowHeight;
HWND hWnd = CreateWindow(szWindowClass, szTitle, WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW,
posX, posY, windowWidth, windowHeight, nullptr, nullptr, hInstance, nullptr);
You can use CreateWindowEx but you don't have to because:
Creates an overlapped, pop-up, or child window with an extended window style; otherwise, this function is identical to the CreateWindow function.
