Set Workspace Size and Position


This sample resizes the workspace and moves the top left corner of the workspace to a point on the screen.

To set the workspace size and position

  1. In Visual Studio, create a new Console Application project and add references for the following Reflection assemblies. (Depending on your version of Visual Studio, these can be found either on the .NET tab or under Assemblies | Extensions.)
    System.Drawing
    Attachmate.Reflection
    Attachmate.Reflection.Framework
  2. Replace all the code in the Program.cs file with the following code for the terminal you are using.
    Set Workspace Size and Position
    Copy Code 
    using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using System.Drawing;
using Attachmate.Reflection.Framework;
using Attachmate.Reflection.UserInterface;
namespace ScreenScrape
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            //Start a visible instance of Reflection or get the instance running at the given channel name
            Application app = MyReflection.CreateApplication("myWorkspace", true);
            IFrame frame = (IFrame)app.GetObject("Frame");

            //Resize the workspace width and height to 640 x 480 pixels
            System.Drawing.Size s = frame.WindowSize;
            s.Width = 640;
            s.Height = 480;
            frame.WindowSize = s;

            //Change the workspace window location by assigning the location of the left corner of the workspace to a point
            System.Drawing.Point p = new Point(30, 30);
            frame.WindowLocation = p;
        }
    }
}

To test this project

  1. Press F5 to run the project.
  2. Verify that the workspace is resized and repositioned.
