Is possible to 'force' a window to a given dimension?

[fabricio234]

I don't understand why but sometimes my target window doesn't resize to the width and height I input
it 'stuck' in the correct width however the height is like 200px smaller

when this happens I can call WinMove/MoveWindow infinitely and it doesn't resize to the desired input
then i need to move it to a different width/height and try again with the desired input

i need to reproduce these steps of changing to a different width / trying to set to the desired width until it works

does someone else has experienced this issue?

I tried resizing the window with WinMove and MoveWindow and this happens randomly with both

Code: Select all

WinMove, ahk_id %hWnd%,,,, 1000, 500
DllCall("MoveWindow", UInt, hWnd, UInt, X, UInt, Y, UInt
   , 1000, UInt, 500, Int, 1)

Does it work if you try to resize a Notepad window?
