Hi,

When opening my MDI childs in FormWindowState.Maximized the minimize,
maximize and close buttons in the upper right corner doesn't show.

When pointing the mouse to the area I get to see the tooltips and when
clicking the left mouse button and dragging the mouse over that area they
are finally shown.

Calling the refresh method of the mdichild doesn't have any effect.

Any ideas?

Thank you.

Are you using Windows 2000? This is a known problem at least for this
version of Windows.

No, I am using Windows XP, SP1 & .net1.1

I have noticed that when resizing the mdiparent the missing buttons are
shown.
But calling refresh() after maximizing the child on the mdiparent doesn't
have any effect.

I have also tried maximizing the mdichild after calling the show ,ethod on
the child, this didn't have any effect either:-(

Is there any way that I can force a refresh og "update" of the form?


Thank you.
