How to maximize a window in Yosemite

Hi. Today I found out that when you click the maximize button in Yosemite, instead of maximize the window to a predetermined space, the window goes full screen. Is there a way to set it back to the previous behaviour? I'm working with two monitors and it's impossible to work this way.
If is not possible to configure this button, can I downgrade to Mavericks? Because it's IMPOSSIBLE to work this way.
Thanks
PD: I'd love to know who is the "person" that came up with this "brilliant" idea :-(

I've found the solution in Yosemite's forum:

How to maximize a window and can't be able to move it

Hi everyone,
I'm doing an HMI and what I want to do is to maximize a window. I can do it in the VI proprieties -> Window Run-Time Position -> Position: Maximized. The problem I get is when I run it, the user can move the window with the title bar.
I don't want to move the window. The window has to stay at the same place.
Is there a way to do this (without taking off the title bar)?
Thank you
Stephanie

Thanks everyone for helping me!
But it doesn't really help me much....
I want to maximize the window (so in the Window Runtime position, I put "Maximize"). I want a title bar to show the name of the VI (I check the "Window has title bar" in the Window Appareance). I don't want to be able to resize the window (I uncheck the "Allow to resize window" in the Window appareance). When I do the last thing, the window can move and it's exactly want I don't want to do. If I uncheck this option, the user can click on the square and be able to resize and move the window.
Maybe there's an option somewhere in the proprieties that can disable moving the window? Why the window can move if I maximised the window and I can be able to resize the window? When it's a real maximize, the window can't move.
Except with the Toolbox (well, I can't use it anyway, because I have version 8.2), is there any other way to do this?
I'd like to have answers please (event if it's no )
Thank you very much again
Stéphanie

How to maximize a window

Hi all:
i want show a maximize window when program started.
How can i do it.

Hi
you have not specified the kind of window you r using. I am assumimg you r using JFrames and the code is as follows :
Dimension dim = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize(); //get screen size
getJFrame().setBounds(0,0,(int)dim.width,(int) dim.height); // set maximum screen size
getJFrame().setVisible(true); // set visibility
Hope this solves your problem.
bye,
MM

How to maximize a window with Swing?

I'd like to know if there is any way to maximize (not just resize) a Swing window (JFrame or similar).
Thanks.

To fill the whole screen, check out toolkit.getWindowSize()

How to maximize application window in Swing?

Hello,
I'm trying to make my Swing application occupy the whole screen on start with
jframe.setExtendedState(JFrame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH);
jrame.setVisible(true);My system supports this feature (checked this through java.awt.Toolkit).
Is there a way to make a Swing app take up the whole of the screen, maybe there is a way to do this with new(1.4) features?
Thank u in advance.

Another way may be to use Toolkit and to pass the resultant dimensions on to the setSize() method.

How to maximize Windows

In Safari, I can minimize the size of window by typing Control-M,
question: how to maximize the window size with keyboard shortcut? I found that clicking the little green button at the upper left corner difficult.

You can't. No such function in Mac OS.
Try searching MacUpdate or VersionTracker for a third-party utility.
Zoom button (green button) toggles between a user set state and the smallest size that completely displays the content of the window.

How to maximize a popup window?

Hi,
My issue:
A popup contains data larger that the screen size, it therefore maximizes itself, meaning that it sets its WIDTH to 100%. But this is most unfortunate as WD does not recognise its own scrollbar as the end of the available screen and now the close button (cross) of the popup is beneath the scrollbar!
When doing a "true" maximize by clicking on the button left to the "closing cross", it recognizes scrollbars and stays visible in total.
My question:
How can I programmatically access the maximize/fullscreen function? Interface IF_WD_WINDOW does not provide a corresponding method as far as I can see...
Already tried:
...please no "put width and height to 100%" as I already stated that this is not what I want...
Also setting width to 95% or the likes does not work, as the popup automatically sets 100% on refresh if there are to large contents.
<br>
I would appreciate your help on this!!
Kind Regards,
Robert

Hi Robert,
You can do any size related actions in POPUP, Actually we have SET_WINDOW_SIZE Method to set window size,
But for popups it wont work.
Please check this thread, check Thomos reply
Re: Confirm Popup in Web Dynpro, window size
Check using set_window_size.. but can't effect.

As suggested saravanan, check SAP NOTE also.

How to maximize a browser window?

Can't seem to figure out how to make a Safari window fill the entire screen.
Or how to vertically or horizontally tile Safari windows.
Or a keyboard shortcut to maximize a window I'd hidden previously.
Or how to get my browsing history to display in a convenient always-on-screen tab. Or even how to access the History dropdown menu without using the mouse constantly, which used to save me so much time and hand/arm movement.
...All things that were remarkably simple in IE and that I took for granted until a day or two ago.

Hello par:
Sorry, incidentally, for my snippy post. It was 11:30 last night, and I think I was tired. Apple users who have been through the bad and good times tend (me too) to be a bit defensive (and yes, superior) to any comparison of Apple software to the stuff from the behemoth from Washington. As a bit of background information, Microsoft used to support a version of IE for the Mac. They dumped that about three years ago. Many of us (me too) hunted for options and I fell in love (figuratively speaking) with Safari.
I use Firefox once in awhile as an alternate browser. There are a very few web sites that do no play well with Safari. The developers either do not write to standards or, worse yet, use code that is Microsoft-specific. Firefox is pretty friendly and has a feature that, when you first install it, allows you to import all of your bookmarks.
F9 allows you to show all of the open windows at once (ones that are hidden under other windows.
F10 brings all windows (except the active one) to the front.
F11 hides all open windows.
I am the world's slowest typer, so I use the mouse extensively (for me, oddly enough, it is faster).
One nice thing you will find about software written for Apples (OS X) is that code is not shotgunned all over your system (unlike Windows). When you wish to uninstall something without an "uninstaller," a simple "find" will locate all the pieces of the program. Then dragging to trash dumps it. By the by, while I am giving gratuitous advice, do not delete any system software unless you are sure it will not harm other parts of OS X.
I am like you in the sense that I avoid cluttering up my iMacs with a whole bunch of code. In my case, (touching wood) I have not had a software problem for a couple of years. Apple's pre-release testing has significantly improved.
P.S. Ask away if you have questions in the future. You will find, I think, that this is the best on-line community anywhere - and virtually everyone is a volunteer.

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 can I maximise windows under Lion?

OK, I realise that this is a trivial question that seems to have been answered several times for previous incarnations of OS X, but I thought I'd read somewhere the the behaviour of the green triffic light buttong had changed under Lion, so that it provide Maximise capability. Ufortunately, from what I cna see, it hasn't :-(
It cycles through various window sizes, and will get close to the maximise function, but only if you have already manually set the size using the mouse (or touch pad).
What I'm realy looking for is a feature that will unconditionally set the window to its maximum possible size - does this exist?
Note that I do not want the full screen facility, which I know about. I dislike this because it hides too much of the application away, such as the menu.
I may be being unreasonable, but this doesn't sound like too much to ask.
Note that this request is partly for myself, but mainly for my wife who has just transferred to OS X from Windows.

If Apple put as much effort into implemeeitng as they've put int justifying *not* impleemmting it then the world would be a better (and different) place.
Apple chose - a LOOONG time ago - to put that power in the hands of developers. If you develop an app, you can choose how the maximize button works for your app. This makes the maximize button far more intelligent and useful, if developers take the trouble to do so, since the window can then maximize to display the most content possible instead of uselessly covering the entire screen when the content is only a fraction of that area. Personally, I think Apple made the right choice, as I almost never want one window to cover the entire screen, but if you disagree, just use Right Zoom. Or full screen mode.
