The GetWindowRect method gets the size and position of the client area of the window with respect to the window that owns the Windows collection to which it belongs. For the Windows collection of an Application object, the "with respect to" window is the MDICLIENT window of the Microsoft Visio main window. For the Windows collection of a Window object, the "with respect to" window is the client area of the drawing window.
Example
The following example shows how to use the GetWindowRect method to get the size and position of a Window object. It opens the Pan & Zoom window and prints the window's coordinates, width, and height in the Immediate window.
Public Sub GetWindowRect_Example()
Dim vsoApplication As Visio.Application
Dim vsoPZWindow As Visio.Window
Dim pinLeft As Long, pinTop As Long, pinWidth As Long, pinHeight As Long
Set vsoApplication = Visio.Application
'Display the Pan & Zoom window
Set vsoPZWindow = vsoApplication.ActiveWindow.Windows.ItemFromID(visWinIDPanZoom)
vsoPZWindow.Visible = True
'Get the existing window size and position
vsoPZWindow.GetWindowRect pinLeft, pinTop, pinWidth, pinHeight
Debug.Print pinLeft, pinTop, pinWidth, pinHeight
'Change the window height and get the new values
vsoPZWindow.SetWindowRect pinLeft, pinTop, pinWidth, pinHeight + 50
vsoPZWindow.GetWindowRect pinLeft, pinTop, pinWidth, pinHeight
Debug.Print pinLeft, pinTop, pinWidth, pinHeight
End Sub
