I have a VI with picture controls that need to maintain their squareness, so as the window is changing I am overwriting it with sizes that maintain the proportions. It all works decently until I start maximizing the window. The maximize box always shows instead of the restore boxes, and part of the code doesn't execute properly. Once I maximize twice the screen updates to how I want. Obviously, this is undesired.
I understand my description isn't probably the best, so I've attached the VI.
First try resizing it by grabbing the borders. You'll notice that the picture controls resize along with the window. Additionally, the picture in the picture control changes size.
Now try maximizing the window. You'll see the controls get bigger, but the actual picture does not change size. (And the restore button is not there) Maximize the window again. The picture updates, but the restore is still not there.
My guess is the restore doesn't show up because the window isn't really maximized, because I made it smaller to maintain proportions. I guess I can live with this. But, any idea why my picture doesn't update on the first maximize?
