How do I maximize the window on startup?

I have a when-new-form-instance trigger that calls set_window_property('WINDOW1',WINDOW_STATE,MAXIMIZE) but it does not maximize my window. I am running my form in a separate window . I am running forms10.1.2.0.2 with Oracle express 10g. My formsweb.cfg looks like this:
[myapp]
userid=myuser/mypass@xe
form=myform.fmx
width=750
height=700
splashScreen=NO
colorScheme=Titanium
separateFrame=True
Also, the above works except splashScreen=NO. I am still getting "ORACLE FORMS." on the screen before my form is displayed. Before I set splashScreen to NO, I was getting the Oracle Forms startup splashscreen. So it looks like it took one splashScreen away and gave me a default. I tried configuring so that my own splashScreen (gif file) would be called, but that didn't work either. I must've done something wrong. How do I configure to use my own gif file as a splashScreen? Another question I have relating to running forms with the above configuration: Whenever I close the form, I need to also close the browser. How can I programmatically close the browser window too?

The I figured out to use BACKGROUND parameter to get the gif file to display, but it's coming out as a black square. Is it a problem with my gif file? (I can open it in other tools & it looks OK)

  • HOW DO YOU CHANGE THE WINDOW SIZE OF EBUSINESS SUITE ON STARTUP

    HOW DO YOU CHANGE THE WINDOW SIZE OF EBUSINESS SUITE ON STARTUP
    How do you change the window size for Ebusiness Suite after you log in. Currently it displays at 100% of the screen. I want to set it smaller, at some %

    I don't know if there is a way to set this. Some user's may prefer different sizes of window, depending on their job duties. For example, we have 170 Systems document management integrated with purchasing and payables so users shrink the Oracle window to fill about 60% of the screen while 170 uses the remaining 40% to display the scanned document.

  • How to get all the windows ?

    Hi all,
    I created a timer which detects inactivity in the first form launched by the forms runtime shortcut :
    when-new-form-instance :
    declare
    hWind NUMBER;
    CheckTimer TIMER;
    begin
    hWind := get_window_property(FORMS_MDI_WINDOW,WINDOW_HANDLE);
    Win_API_Session.Timeout_Start_Timer(hWind);
    CheckTimer := Create_Timer('T_INACTIVITY',10000);
    end;
    And in the when-timer-expired of the same form :
    if upper(get_application_property(TIMER_NAME)) = 'T_INACTIVITY' then
    if Win_API_Session.Timeout_get_inactive_time >= 8 then
         set_window_property(:system.event_window,title,'Deconnected');
    end if;
    end if;
    My problem is that when I click on a menu item in my menu, and I do nothing during 10 seconds then only the first form's window is titled 'Deconnected' but not the current form .
    I have copied the trigger when-timer-expired of the first form to the form I called but there is nothing.
    So how to make all the windows , whether it is the active window or it is hidden , to be titled 'Deconnected' when the timer expires ?
    Thank you very much indeed.

    execute a system process that will output this data and read/parse the output
    [notice a pattern?]

    How can I change the window size of iTunes on my iMac?  Used to be easy before installing Mavericks.

    If you want to make the itunes tab so you can see the dock
    you press the
    esc
    button if your in full screen mode
    if you want to get into full screen mode you press the arrows facing away from eachother in the top right corner
    there is another way to get to the normal tab if your in full screen
    make the curser go right up to the top of the screen and it will show the apple tab
    it will have two arrows facing together highlited in blue
    if u tap that it will take you to the normal tab

  • How do I maximize the battery life for my iPod touch?

    Hi,
    I am the proud new owner of an iPod 5th generation. My question is how can I maximize the batteries lifetime? Is there a certain percentage the battery should stay in between  Should it be plugged in whenever possible, does that circumvent the battery and just keeps it alive until taken out, and then switches back to using the battery?
    Anyway, any tips would be helpful. I already keep all features off that I don't need, such as bluetooth, messages, facetime etc.
    Thanks, GreatAndRandom

  • My Webpage screen is always minimized. How can I enlarge the window?

    My Webpage window is smaller then my screen the window is at about 10 inches instead of the whole scren . How can I enlarge the window (webpage) ? it is so annoying to work with this screen.
    Any help would be greatly apperciated.
    Thank you

    The first place to start may be to check Activity Monitor. Look at the Disk Usage tab and the CPU tab and see if any one or two things seem to be dominating that activity. Especially see if it's some 3rd party app or background process.

    It would appear under the organizer tab that the photos are organised in the lowest folder in the folder structure within Windows Explorer.  How can I use the Windows Explorer structure to organise the photos within Elements.

    In a situation such as yours, I tend to consolidate items into folders so I have folders of nice workable numbers of images, somewhere between 20 and 200 images. Now, whatever, once you've imported, do your moving within LR, not the OS! I will select all in a folder and drag into a folder a level or two or three above, and then delete the newly empty subfolders. I hope this helps a bit!
    Once you've reached just new Imports of camera output, you'll be flying along.

  • How do I resize the window of pages in the new version? It takes up most of my desktop. I would like to make it tall and narrow, which was possible in the old pages, but I cannot seem to do it in the new version.

    I agree it is a very bad and wasteful design especially for users on small laptop screens.
    You can drag it to whatever shape you want from the bottom left corner.
    Click on the paintbrush to make the Format side panel disappear. However you will need to use that side panel for most formatting.

    Click on the Hot Corners..  button and look at the four definitions.  In the picture below, if you moved the cursor to the right top of the screen, it would slide all the applications off the screen as you describe and show the desktop.  Set it to "-" to deactivate.

  • How can i detect the windows version

    Hi,
    How can I detect the windows version from Forms 6i?
    I was used get_application_property(operating_system); But it only return MSWINDOWS, MSWINDOWS32, WIN32COMMON.
    Any function or way can return the exact windows version(98/ME/NT/XP)?
    Regards, Wing

    You may use Win_Api_Environment API call to get windows version.
