Hi,
In VCL,  we can use wm_GetMinMaxInfo in a form to control the max width and 
height of a form, how to do this in CLX? using the wm_GetMinMaxInfo will 
make the program Windows specific, any other approach that works in Delphi 
and Kylix in the same time?
Thanks.

What's wrong with TForm.Constraints ?

This doesn't seem like a very good idea to me.
What do you actually want to do?

If you don't want the user to resize the window, make 
TForm.BorderStyle:=fbsSingle
or so...

Hi Theo,

thanks for the tip, constraints works, but it does not position the form at 
screen center, always at 0,0 when maximize, anyway to force it to be at 
center? thanks.

what i like to do is:

The main form is maximized, when user open a sdi form and maximized it, i 
don't want it to occupy the entire screen, at least leave a frame of the 
main form.
