    mdi forms

    when one of my child forms is maximized, then all the others opened after it are also maximized? Is there a way around this?

    thanks,

    This is Windows' default behaviour. If you want to get around it then you're going to have to code in the logic yourself.

    If you're making a MDI application and it maximizes the first child like you want it to, it is supposed to maximize to the largest possible. Not sure why it would even matter if the other windows maximized with it or not
