More info - Step by Step. Only VB.NET or can it be also a C# example ?

Isn't that enough already? "code for face recognition password"... maximizing on cursor motion? Do you think it can be considered?

I answered -- please see if you are curious.

Solution 2

You want to violate commonly expected UI style, and very brutally. The only help you can get is: stop wanting it. How to stop it? There are different techniques: yoga, meditation… :-)

Anyone can easily maximize any Window using standard method. All users expect it. If your form layout can assume different sizes but is only usable at maximum size, it means that the UI design is all broken. The design should be size-tolerant, which is not too hard to achieve. You should not use this wrong UI conception.

You will find some detail in my past solutions:
Zom Out malfunctions when Screen resolution changes[^],
GUI Apperance - C#.Net[^],
a simple code sample: how to dock button so that it can adjust with the form[^].

Maybe it would be a good experience to try it (the UI violation) and to recognize after the first maximize it's over and the next (strange) step has to be worked out.

Anyway a 5 from a cp noob

Of course getting one's horns broken by ramming the problem has its value. The opposite principle is to learn on mistakes of someone else, not on own mistakes. Some wise combination of these opposites wins. :-)
Thank you.

Solution 1

For the maximization of the form, you could try using MouseEnter[^] event and set the WindowState[^] property to maximized.

About the face recognition, one very good article: Face Detection C++ Library with Skin and Motion Analysis[^]

Yep, just read it. That's a good question and thought about it when answering. I didn't however question the idea since there's basically no background info about the project. But I must admit that it would have been a good idea to shake a little bit :)

thatraja 29-Dec-11 15:17pm

Agree with SA. So 4 from me

Wendelius 29-Dec-11 15:30pm

Yes, so do I. But... what's written is written so I think it's not fair to change the answer. This conversation chain clearly shows that the mechanism is working but isn't actually feasible.

Thanks for your comment :)
