Getting position/width/height of MainWindow [duplicate]

Question

I'm wondering about the best way to get information about the current position and width/height of the MainWindow. I want to keep a child window inside the main window so I want to check the coordinates of the MainWindows borders during the move function of the child window. I could only find the Window.LocationChanged event but it doesn't solve my problem in a satisfying way. Are there better options?

Answer 1

You can access the position of the main window all over your code via Application.Current.MainWindow.Left and Application.Current.MainWindow.Top, respectively. Hope this will help.

Answer 2

But, you should check "WindowState". In "Maximized" state properties "Left" and "Top" keep the values of the window in it's normal state. Window position in "Maximized" state discribes here: How can I find the position of a maximized window?
