E ExcludeReality Active Member Licensed User Nov 16, 2009 #1 I need some help with desktop fullscreen. FormLib doesn't work on desktop, and the FormExDesktop doesn't have a fullscreen function. At best I can set the WindowsState to Maximized. Can someone provide a sample on a fullscreen app?

Set its' width and height to the screen values and set the BorderStyle to 0. Make sure you have some way of re-setting the BorderStyle to 4 by clicking on the FormEx or by some other means. Unless full screen is a separate FormEx being shown you will probably want to save the current position and size of the FormEx and restore those previous FormEx settings when exiting full screen.
