My components are not maximised along with the form 2

[Rodzo]

When my users click the maximise button they say that the form background becomes full size but the components are still the original size, occupying only the top left corner of the screen. I know I'm missing something obvious, but I can't find anything in the help files about it.

Use components property Align or property Anchors.<br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Vladimir.

 

[Boria]

Set 'align' property (in the object inspector) of all the components that are children of the form to 'alclient'.

If you would like to reallocate your components within a form everytime it is resized, you could also try to write an OnResize event for the form. That could, for example, try to find the most evenly distributed positions for the components, according to the height and width of the form. That might enhance the user-friendly response of your program.
