How to determine if a window is maximized ?

Hi,

I'd like to know if it's possible to know wether or not the current window is maximized or not.

I want to do that to avoid a screen refresh (on windows) for nothing if the window is already maximized

Thanks.

go to play with Get ( WindowHeight )

I was waiting to see if you get a better answer than mine. Run this script (you need a global text field gText1 or a replacement for the script to work). Here it is:

Set Field [ :gText1; "Window Height: " & Get ( WindowHeight ) & "¶" &

"Window Width: " & Get ( WindowWidth ) & "¶¶" &

"Desktop Height: " &Get ( WindowDesktopHeight ) & "¶" &

"Desktop Width: " &Get ( WindowDesktopWidth ) ]

The relationship between the window and desktop results should be constant on a given platform. You can then define a calculation (better in a custom function) that uses these values to tell you if a window is maximised.

I hope I made that clear,
