    How do I set form size to minimised when it opens?


    I want to set my form size's to their minimised version ( the size that fits everything perfectly) so that my form design is properly shown without the big empty space at the right of every small form .How do i do it?

    Project is set for Overlapping Windows?

    Try:

    If the Form's BorderStyle property is not set to Sizable, can't adjust the form size in Form view. I usually set to Thin. Also set AutoResize to Yes. I manually size the form's design area in design view and save it.

    Whenever i manually size the form design area it doesnt work properly for shortening the form(there is still a big chunk of space at the right side), but when i expand the form i can see the changes o_0.

    Later ill try your pm-ed method
