Is there any way of making a window large enough but not too large that some people will have to scroll depending on their resolution. I know about max;max but if y9ou put max-100 is seems to go back to default. |

Why do you need both of those View.Set lines? Also how can you use it with Window.Open just call Window.Open then View.Set the screen to the size you want? |

The first line sets the maxx and maxy variables. Then you can use those values as you'd like. |

Err - that works just fine. Tony's point is that maxx and maxy are only set when the window / view's size changes. So, to detect the maximum size of the screen, you have to open it maximised first, then read off the values for the size of the screen and adjust them as you want. |

I think the second one would work. Have you tried it? The only caveat is that you have to use max,max before maxx,maxy |
