Programmatically Maximize Window On Half Of Screen

Question

I want to maximize a random window on the left side of my screen. Can I use Windows Aero functions from my code ? This window can be maximized like that with the mouse. I just want to do that programmatically.

I use C# and I can get the IntPtr of the window.

If possible without faking mouse or keyboard input.

Answer 1

This can be done without p/invoke.

Try this:

Rectangle rect = Screen.PrimaryScreen.WorkingArea;
rect.Width = rect.Width / 2;
Bounds = rect;

This will put the current window on the left of the primary screen.

Then just add this to put it on the right of the screen.

Location = new Point(rect.Width, 0);
