How would i do this when the form is open?
all i know is CW_USEDEFAULT style
is there something else or should i manually change it's position when it's loaded?

you want to move it to the center?

GetSystemMetrics() to get the size of the screen, then you can just do

center = screen_size / 2 - window_size / 2

call MoveWindow() with the new coordinates

make sure you take the window border and caption into consideration as well. GetSystemMetrics() can get the size for these also

i think you can get the size of the entire window with GetWindowRect()

i think i'd be okay from here thanks Very Happy

but one more problem if i may
the thing is that i have my entry point that creates the main window but b4 that window is being initialized
i create a child window for choosing settings and right after i hit ok that window close itself and the main window is being loaded
but when the main window is being loaded it doesn't have any focus, and all other windows / application are hiding him
so i used SetForegroundwindow to set it the first in z order
and when i wanna use SetDlgItemText to set the text of some textbox
it's not working :\
any idea ?
lol nvm i figured it out :>
