Hi,

ATM I'm running wihu with cmdlines.txt but first change the screen resolution from 640x480 to 800x600 to offer more space for wihu.

I tried to run wihu maximized (Autohotkey has something for this but I know ShellExecute() has the same). This seems to be impossible.
So I wait wihu's window and maximize it (autohotokey again). But at T-12, everything is pretty slow so I get a special effect. :ph34r:

Could this be changed. Thanks a lot.

In the [SETTINGS] section of your INI file, add these lines...

[SETTINGS]
DIMENSION.WIDTH=100%
DIMENSION.HEIGHT=100%

Or I can add a new settings WindowState (restored = normal, minimized, maximized)

[SETTINGS]
DIMENSION.WIDTH=100%
DIMENSION.HEIGHT=100%

Worked but it seems there's a border. I did not test in VMWare yet and will see if a WindowState setting would be needed.

Btw. my new version (not released yet because I add support for HTML helptext) has a window.state settings, so you may change your ini file in advance:

New settings:

dimension.width/height is now window.width/height
window.state = maximized or minimized

However dimension.width will also still be recognised.
