Question:
How do I center a form relative to its parent?
Answer:
The following code will do it:
if(Parent) {
ChildForm->Left=ParentForm->Left+
((ParentForm->Width-ChildForm->Width)/2);
ChildForm->Top=ParentForm->Top+
((ParentForm->Height-CHildForm->Height)/2);
if((ChildForm->Left+ChildForm->Width)>Screen->Width)
ChildForm->Left=Screen->Width-ChildForm->Width;
if((ChildForm->Top+ChildForm->Height)>Screen->Height)
ChildForm->Top=Screen->Height-ChildForm->Height;
}
