**MAXIMIZE**

{{blk2blue.jpg|blk2blue.jpg}}

The **MAXIMIZE** attribute (PROP:MAXIMIZE) specifies the APPLICATION or WINDOW is opened maximized. When maximized, an APPLICATION or non-MDI WINDOW expands to occupy the full screen, and an MDI WINDOW expands to occupy the entire APPLICATION.

With the SYSTEM built-in variable as the property assignment //target//, PROP:MAXIMIZE returns 1 if the Windows PIF setting for the application is set to open the application maximized.

**Example:**

** !A Window with a maximize button, opened maximized:**

**Win2 WINDOW,MAX,****MAXIMIZE**

**     END**
