http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59976 --- Comment #7 from Andrea Faulds <ajf@ajf.me> --- I wrote a little test program to see how SPI_GETWORKAREA and SPI_SETWORKAREA behave. As I was hoping, on Windows 2000, changing the work area does indeed change what part of the screen the application can cover. I could also see that, on Windows 2000, this is a global parameter that automatically affects all other applications (the last parameter to SystemParametersInfo doesn't seem to be relevant). In WINE, I was able to trivially modify get_maximized_rect() to return the work area retrieved by SPI_GETWORKAREA. With that, my test app could affect how far it could be maximized. However, there doesn't seem to be anything to propagate that changed work area to other WINE processes. So I think the minimal set of pieces now is this: - Make explorer.exe do SPI_SETWORKAREA (and make it aware of its own taskbar) - Make get_maximized_rect() use SPI_GETWORKAREA or equivalent - Make SPI_SETWORKAREA and SPI_SETWORKAREA communicate with wineserver so that all processes are aware of work area changes -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
