[QUOTE="Avalon, post: 42475, member: 5184"] Well, maximize to full screen like Windows, no... On Mac OS X, you have three window buttons in the top left corner, which are red(x), yellow(-) and green(+). The red one closes the window, and in case you didn't save the changes in that window, you will be ask if you want to save. The yellow one minimizes the window to the Dock (with a nice looking Genie-effect :-) ). The green one maximizes your window according to the document inside. Lets say for example you open a picture in Preview, and the picture perfectly fits the window (no scroll bars). If you zoom in now, the window size doesn't change, but you get scroll bars. when you click the green button now, the window size will adapt to the now bigger picture. Same goes in the other direction, if you zoom out, your picture gets smaller but the window stays the same. Click the green button, and your window will be resized to match the picture. So it's not really a "maximize" more an "adapt window". [/QUOTE]
