Info about Minimized/Maximized state of an object

[#1]

Hello, I need to know if a particular object (identifed by its own ID) is minimized, maximized or normal view.

Is there a way to do this? I've not found any function...

Thanks, Regards,

f.

Mancini ,

It is really a good question and now i am to keen to know the answer let us see what we conclude.

This is only per macro possible, see here an example from APIGuide.qvw:

rem ** reverse maximize status for chart CH01 **

set c=ActiveDocument.GetSheetObject("CH01")

if c.IsMaximized then

    c.Restore

else

    c.Maximize

end if

Yes, i've seen this, but using a macro I think is not possible to:

• Use object name as parameter (AFAIK is not possible to pass a parameter to a function in a macro)
• Call the macro from a expression (but i'm not pretty sure of this)

However Macro approach can be a good idea...

Thanks,

In the Chart Object you can right click, go to actions. Set variable varname and put the value under Value. Use

set ControlID = ActiveDocument.Variables("vControlID")

to set the ControlID in macro code. Later you can chnage properties of this.
