Cannot resize window with this code *SOLVED*
Author
I enumerated some simple constants of expected resolutions to resize my window to. After looking around online, I tried writing this function. The window simply will not resize. I made the entire function tree for it return values to determine success, and apparently, they were successful! I cannot figure out what's wrong with it yet, so can someone help me determine where I flopped?
Rather than post all 3 functions responsible, here's the one I believe is the problem code. I base this on the fact this is the only one that contains code I do not fully understand.
This is in scope of my Engine, and any member access or anything arbitrary should have self explanatory names.

AdjustWindowRect(Ex) does not resize the window. It merely calculates a client size from a complete window (screen) size depending on the windows properties (or vice versa).
To actually resize a window you use SetWindowPos or MoveWindow.

Noted and fixed, thanks!
I have another window related question before I close this up if that's alright...
I have a child window that displays a splash screen for a couple of seconds before the app begins. I want both this screen, and the main app to center themselves on my screen when they start.
How would I do this and have the app determine the resolution of my monitor at the time?

to get the resolution
int ScreenWidth = GetDeviceCaps(HORZRES);
int ScreenHeight = GetDeviceCaps(VERTRES);
then you have to get the width and height of the window you want to center,
you could use GetWindowRect(), which takes a rect, and fills it with the size in screen coords
RECT WindowRect;
GetWindowRect(hHandleToSplashWindow,&WindowRect);
WindowWidth = WindowRect.right - WindowRect.left;
WindowHeight = WindowRect.bottom - WindowRect.top;
then the X of the window would be: (ScreenWidth - WindowWidth) /2
the Y would be: (ScreenHeight - WindowHeight)/2
usually i wouldn't give so much code, but since i was programming, i'm kinda in the mood
int ScreenWidth = GetDeviceCaps(HORZRES);
int ScreenHeight = GetDeviceCaps(VERTRES);

You can get the desktop window with
GetDesktopWindow();
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms633504.aspx
This returns the handle of the desktop then you can get the client rectangle of the desktop.
HWND desktop;
desktop = GetDesktopWindow();
Rect rc;
GetClientRect(desktop,&rc);
Then you have to center your windows to this client rectangle.
MoveWindow(yourWindow,(rc.right-yourWindowWidth)/2,( rc.bottom-yourWindowHeight) /2,yourWindowWidth,yourWindowHeight,TRUE);
Something like that should work.

HTH!

I already got it, but thank you! My only issue was ignorance to a few functions, so all I needed to do was implement them.
I'm good now, but thanks for the input!
