I agree with what Alex has written. The ONLY point I was trying to make is that programs created with Rev do not behave as do all other Windows programs. The deviation in behavior is in some sense minor, but I see no reason why it has to deviate at all. And explaining to a user why my software does not work like other Windows software just seems to be a waste of everyone's time.

I thought I said I would shut up.  Sigh.  I'll try to do it now!

I was unable to find a discussion about handling maximizing properly in a quick glance at the Win HIG. Your guidance on where I can find that would be much appreciated.

No idea what, if anything, MS's HIG says - but I can tell you what every (*) Windows program I've used in the last 10 years does - it maximizes the window to cover everything except any non-auto-hide taskbar. So if the task bar is set to auto-hide, then the window covers the entire visible screen; if not auto-hide, it covers the complete rectangle which doesn't overlap the task bar.

(*) every means literally every program I've used except Rev; I'm not aware of
