Hi,
I'm trying to align a WinForm with my Command Item Icon button but don't see any way to do so. Is there a way to get out the screen coordinates of the icon so that I can position my WinForm relative to it ?
Barring that is there a way to know the location of the Command area itself so that the WinForm can float over the page ?
Is having a Command Item the best choice to attempt this or should I be using a different project type ?
Thoughts ?

Hi George,
Did you add the command to the 'Command bar' toolbar of IE or a custom toolbar? |

I did add an icon. I used the 'ADX IE Add On' project option in visual studio 2010 and added a Command Item in the designer. That's the Icon I'm referring to and it would be ideal if I could get my WinForm to be aligned when I receive the click callback.
If that's not possible it would be great if I could align it with the interior of the page itself |

Hi George,
I am afraid that it is not possible. The Command Bar works in the main process in IE. Moreover the command can be hidden. I will publish the code that align a window with the top right corner of the web page. |

Hi George,
Please try the code below. To enable visual styles the constructor of the custom form should call the 'Application.EnableVisualStyles()' method before the InitializeComponent method.
[DllImport("user32")]
public extern static int GetWindowRect(IntPtr hWnd, out RECT lpRect);
[ComVisible(false), StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, Pack = 4)]
public struct RECT
{
public int Left;
public int Top;
public int Right;
public int Bottom;
public RECT(Rectangle rect)
{
Left = rect.Left;
Top = rect.Top;
Right = rect.Right;
Bottom = rect.Bottom;
}
public RECT(int left, int top, int right, int bottom)
{
this.Left = left;
this.Top = top;
this.Right = right;
this.Bottom = bottom;
}
public Rectangle Rect { get { return new Rectangle(this.Left, this.Top, this.Right - this.Left, this.Bottom - this.Top); } }
public static RECT FromXYWH(int x, int y, int width, int height)
{
return new RECT(x,
y,
x + width,
y + height);
}
public static RECT FromRectangle(Rectangle rect)
{
return new RECT(rect.Left,
rect.Top,
rect.Right,
rect.Bottom);
}
public Rectangle ToRectangle()
{
return new Rectangle(Left, Top, Right - Left, Bottom - Top);
}
}
private void adxieCommandItem1_OnClick(object sender, object htmlDoc)
{
Form1 f = new Form1();
RECT wndRect;
GetWindowRect(this.ParentHandle, out wndRect);
f.Location = new Point(wndRect.Right - f.Width, wndRect.Top);
f.ShowDialog(this);
f.Dispose();
}
