在 WPF 中，如果窗口不在屏幕上，如何将窗口移到屏幕上？

Question

If I have a window, how can I ensure that the window will never be hidden off the screen?

This is important, because sometimes if the user adds or removes a monitor, the window may be permanently hidden off the screen if we have remembered the previous position.

I am using WPF + MVVM .

This answer has been tested in a large scale real world application.

Call this from any attached property to shift the window back onto the visible screen:

public static class ShiftWindowOntoScreenHelper
{
    /// <summary>
    ///     Intent:  
    ///     - Shift the window onto the visible screen.
    ///     - Shift the window away from overlapping the task bar.
    /// </summary>
    public static void ShiftWindowOntoScreen(Window window)
    {
        // Note that "window.BringIntoView()" does not work.                            
        if (window.Top < SystemParameters.VirtualScreenTop)
        {
            window.Top = SystemParameters.VirtualScreenTop;
        }

        if (window.Left < SystemParameters.VirtualScreenLeft)
        {
            window.Left = SystemParameters.VirtualScreenLeft;
        }

        if (window.Left + window.Width > SystemParameters.VirtualScreenLeft + SystemParameters.VirtualScreenWidth)
        {
            window.Left = SystemParameters.VirtualScreenWidth + SystemParameters.VirtualScreenLeft - window.Width;
        }

        if (window.Top + window.Height > SystemParameters.VirtualScreenTop + SystemParameters.VirtualScreenHeight)
        {
            window.Top = SystemParameters.VirtualScreenHeight + SystemParameters.VirtualScreenTop - window.Height;
        }

        // Shift window away from taskbar.
        {
            var taskBarLocation = GetTaskBarLocationPerScreen();

            // If taskbar is set to "auto-hide", then this list will be empty, and we will do nothing.
            foreach (var taskBar in taskBarLocation)
            {
                Rectangle windowRect = new Rectangle((int)window.Left, (int)window.Top, (int)window.Width, (int)window.Height);

                // Keep on shifting the window out of the way.
                int avoidInfiniteLoopCounter = 25;
                while (windowRect.IntersectsWith(taskBar))
                {
                    avoidInfiniteLoopCounter--;
                    if (avoidInfiniteLoopCounter == 0)
                    {
                        break;
                    }

                    // Our window is covering the task bar. Shift it away.
                    var intersection = Rectangle.Intersect(taskBar, windowRect);

                    if (intersection.Width < window.Width
                        // This next one is a rare corner case. Handles situation where taskbar is big enough to
                        // completely contain the status window.
                        || taskBar.Contains(windowRect))
                    {

                        {
                            // Task bar is on the left. Push away to the right.
                            window.Left = window.Left + intersection.Width;
                        }
                        else
                        {
                            // Task bar is on the right. Push away to the left.
                            window.Left = window.Left - intersection.Width;
                        }

As a bonus, you can implement your own drag'n'drop, and when the drag finishes, the window will be shifted back onto the screen.

It would be more intuitive from the users point of view if the window slid quickly back into the visible area rather than just skipping back into the visible area, but at least this method gets the right results.

Answer 2

The subject is old, but if anyone is looking for another solution, I did this to display a window on a click at the cursor position and ensure the window is always visible according to screen (working area) boudaries :

public static void PositionWindowOnScreen(Window window)
{
    Screen activeScreen = Screen.FromPoint(Control.MousePosition);

    double xPositionToSet = Control.MousePosition.X;
    double yPositionToSet = Control.MousePosition.Y;

    if (xPositionToSet + window.Width > activeScreen.WorkingArea.Width + activeScreen.WorkingArea.X && 
        xPositionToSet - activeScreen.WorkingArea.X - window.Width > 0)
    {
        xPositionToSet = xPositionToSet - window.Width;
    }

    if (yPositionToSet + window.Height > activeScreen.WorkingArea.Height + activeScreen.WorkingArea.Y && 
        yPositionToSet - activeScreen.WorkingArea.Y - window.Height > 0)
    {
        yPositionToSet = yPositionToSet - window.Height;
    }

    window.WindowStartupLocation = WindowStartupLocation.Manual;
    window.Left = xPositionToSet;
    window.Top = yPositionToSet;
}
