Good luck with that, it works nicely. I use it in windows mail since auto sizer doesn't work on that platform. The trick was to find the particular functions in the windows mail script file to place the command that calls the script in question.

Hi David, Thank you very much for the clarification. Just to experiment, I think I'll turn off Autosizer & try this script just to see how it works. Thanks again, take care.

I normally place it in the default script file so it can be accessed from various applications myself. Say for example you hit enter on a text file which opens in notepad by passing your desktop icon, then normally it would come up restored without the help of a script or a program like auto sizer which I find useful as well BTW. I placed an auto start event function in notepad that calls auto maximize which is located in the default script file. Like I said earlier all of that happens faster than an eye blink and your window comes up maximized for you ready to go. The script can be found on the server.

Would it be better to run this script than running Autosizer, in your opinion? Thanks again, take care.

It functions like this. I use it in notepad but it will work on other programs as well. In notepad I have an auto start function which calls auto maximize encoded in my default script. Auto maximize looks to see if there is a symbol that says maximize in the corner as I mentioned. If it finds such a symbol it performs a left mouse click which maximizes the window. The thing is it does that so quickly it is almost transparent to the user. Some times I can catch it working but normally it just does it so fast it's not even an issue. You do need to feel comfortable in the script files but it does not take much programming ability to install it.

This is the description given; 1. Function To Maximize Most any Window Automatically How would running this script work , opposed to running the Autosizer program? All advice & input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much, take care.
