h1(#wxmdiclientwindow). Wx::MDIClientWindow

An MDI client window is a child of "MDIParentFrame":mdiparentframe.html, and manages zero or
more "MDIChildFrame":mdichildframe.html objects.

h2. Derived from

"Window":window.html

"EvtHandler":evthandler.html

"Object":object.html

h2. Remarks

The client window is the area where MDI child windows exist. It doesn't have to cover the whole
parent frame; other windows such as toolbars and a help window might coexist with it.
There can be scrollbars on a client window, which are controlled by the parent window style.

The *MDIClientWindow* class is usually adequate without further derivation, and it is created
automatically when the MDI parent frame is created. If the application needs to derive a new class,
the function "MDIParentFrame#on_create_client":mdiparentframe.html#MDIParentFrame_oncreateclient must be
overridden in order to give an opportunity to use a different class of client window.

Under Windows 95, the client window will automatically have a sunken border style when
the active child is not maximized, and no border style when a child is maximized.
