minimumWidth

Type: Integer

Availability: Read or write at any time

The minimumWidth property of the Form class contains the minimum width (in pixels) of the form. Use this property if you want to prevent users from resizing the form below the specified width. (For details about setting a minimum height, see the minimumHeight property.)

The minimum width is retained even if logic attempts to set the width of the form below the equivalent minimum width.

Windows imposes a minimum height and width so that the form caption buttons are always visible. The effective minimum sizes are therefore the maximum of the size imposed by Windows and the minimumHeight and minimumWidth values.
