Could you expose WM_MINMAXINFO event?
« on: November 14, 2010, 09:28:00 pm »
I wanted to set minimum window size, but it doesn't seem to be possible without hacking around.

Maybe I am missing something?

If I'm not, is there any chance it will ever be implemented into the library?

Thanks!

More info about the event at msdn - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms632626.aspx

EDIT:
In fact I don't think it's even necessary to expose it as event type, it would be just fine if it was possible to give minimum size as parameters when you create a window using SFML, then you could handle it internally and it would be easier to make sure it works cross platform.

SFML is not a complete windowing API such as Qt or GTK. There are tons of things that are not implemented, and I don't want to add them all (to keep the API simple).

So... this one seems to be too specific to have a chance to be added to SFML, sorry.

listen for resize event. if the size is too small for you then resize the window as you wish. no need for such parameter.

Yeah I was about to try that out.

Laurent, I understand. Not a biggy, just though it would actually be quite handy thing to have.
