[RESOLVED] Window Rect issue

**Fazi** · Aug 22nd, 2009, 10:45 AM

Hai

Today i noticed My screen capture software showing the wrong window rect after if i play the Project IGI game and close it.

but all other times, works perfect. whats the problem?

Interesting. Does Spy++ also offset the rect if you do highlight window?

I don't know what Project IGI game is, but sounds like it may not be resetting things that way they should be? Of course maybe your screen capture app is faulty?

Out of curiosity. If you create a sample app that has only this code in it, does it position itself at 0,0 after the game closes and after you run the sample app?

Code:

Private Sub Form_Load()
       Me.Move 0, 0
End Sub

Almost sounds as if the screen coords are offset, something like SetViewportOrgEx API would do.

Is there a chance the game forces a particular screen resolution or mode that is not reset on quit? I am just guessing here....

Sorry, I have never played that game

. What resolution does IGI use? Maybe it is because you revert from a low resolution to a high resolution... just a guess...

Edit: I see fish4fun has already expressed his thoughts...
