MAXIMIZE WINDOW
MAXIMIZE WINDOW
The MAXIMIZE WINDOW command triggers the expansion of the window whose reference number was passed in window. If this parameter is omitted, the effect is the same but is applied to all the frontmost windows of the current process (Windows) or to the frontmost window of the current process (Mac OS). This command has the same effect as a click on the zoom box of a 4D application window. Windows you want to maximize must have a zoom box. If the window type does not have a zoom box, the command does nothing (for more information about this point, refer to Window Types (compatibility) section). A later click on the zoom box or a call to the MINIMIZE WINDOW command reduces the window to its initial size. On Windows, a call to MINIMIZE WINDOW without parameters sets the size of all application windows to their initial sizes. If window is already maximized, the command does nothing.
The size of the window is increased to match the current size of the application window. The maximized window is set to be the frontmost window. If you do not pass the window parameter, the command is applied to all the application windows. Windows zoom box In cases where the command is applied to a window whose size is subject to constraints (for example, a form window):
The size of the window is increased to match the size of its contents. If you do not pass the window parameter, the command is applied to the frontmost window of the current process. Zoom box on Mac OS
This example sets the window size of your form to full screen when it is opened. To achieve this, the following code is placed in the form method: ` In the Form method This example illustrates how size constraints are handled on Windows. The following form has a size constraint (maximum width=400): The method of the button contains simply: MAXIMIZE WINDOW(Current form window) In this context, when the user clicks on the button: ... the window is not "maximized"; only its height is increased:
