Solution 1

You can use GetClientRect on the tab, and GetWindowRect on the dialog. You can then adjust the dialog box dimensions to fit the tab, and use MoveWindow to reposition it.

There are several articles about dialogs and tabs at this site. Here is the section for them : https://www.codeproject.com/KB/tabs/[^]. I recommend searching through them and you should be able to find one that is helpful.

Solution 2

but with GetClientRect I get dimension of tab, right? And with GetWindowRect I obtain dimension of dialog...dialog is already positioned well...Then to fix dimension of dialog is there a function?
