DeskArea

Introduction

The DeskArea is the work area to which windows may maximize themselves to. Setting this DeskArea is handled by the deskarea.service in SharpCore?. Changing the size of the desktop work area can be done by changing the xml file of the deskarea.service.

XML Settings

The xml file is located in

  \Settings\User\{Username}\SharpCore\Services\DeskArea\DeskArea.xml

Before changing the content of this file make sure to stop the deskarea.service in SharpCore?!

To change the space that windows maximize to, you must change the <Top> and <Bottom> values, each limiting the area restricted for windows when maximized for, respectively the top and the bottom.

After changing the file just start the deskarea.service again.

Example of a complete DeskArea.xml file

  <DestopArea>
    <Settings>
      <Top>35</Top>
      <Bottom>35</Bottom>
      <UserMode>-1</UserMode>
    </Settings>
  </DestopArea>
