Title:
How to position forms on screen
The application I've developed allows users to have any number of forms open at the same time. However, to activate one that is currently obscured can be a problem: the user must minimize the top form or drag its title bar out of the way of the underlying form. If a third form obscures the desired one, that one must be minimized or moved also.
The menu of the application has a "Cycle Window" bar (_mwi_rotat), which allows the user to cycle through the available forms. I have found the "Arrange" bar (_mwi_arran) to be of little help. I would like to put a "Window" bar on the menu that allows the user to select an open form by name, rather than cycling through them in sequence. How can this be done?
Also, is it possible to have a "Cascade" function which positions the title bars of all open forms in an accessible place?
Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks!
