Hi David, I agree that it can be a bit of a frustrating scavenger hunt. I'm not sure what platform you're using but it will pay off if you get familiar with 'find' and 'grep' commands to dig through the paraview source. In the meantime I think you're looking for something like,
view.ViewSize = [number, number] to set the gui size. You can use something like 'view.ParallelScale' to zoom in (that's not the exact command but it should be listed in dir(view)). Good luck, Peter.
