About dcl_Control_GetPos and dcl_Form_GetRectangle

1 - The dcl_Control_GetPos and dcl_Form_GetRectangle functions should do the same job?
2 - Why dcl_Form_GetRectangle is not documented?

3 - When the screen of AutoCAD does not maximized they return an error message, see below
(dcl_Control_GetPos dc_3D_MainMenu_BarMax)
(227 232 168 426)
Application ERROR: Bad argument type

The dcl_Form_GetRectangle function is deprecated and replaced with dcl-Control-GetPos. Deprecated functions are {2} in the documentation.

Please provide information and steps to reproduce the application error.

Hello Owen, 

The error happened when I was doing a screen test with AutoCAD decreased. 

The goal is to make a form always appears in the same place. 

Always work when AutoCAD is with the window maximized.

See the code I am using.

[code

(defun c:dc_3D_MainMenu_BarMax_Aducao_OnClicked (/)

  (setq FormPos (dcl_Control_GetPos dc_3D_MainMenu_BarMax))



;;;Muda a imagem do botao p/ over

  (dcl_Control_SetPicture dc_3D_MainMenu_BarMax_Aducao 113)

;;;Carrega o submenu na base do botao Blutop

  (dcl_Form_Show

    dc_3D_MainMenu_SubMenu_Agua

    (+ 161 (cadr FormPos))

    (+ 168 (cadr FormPos))

  ) ;_ fim de dcl_Form_Show  

) ;_ fim de defun

Sorry I worked with AutoCAD 2010 and OpenDCL 7.0.1.4

I'm having difficulty understanding what exactly I must do to reproduce the error here.

Hello Owen,
I discovered that the problem with my code has no relation with the dcl_Control_GetPos function.
Thanks
