[QUOTE="yogi, post: 236291, member: 8542"] Clicking the green "zoom button" on any mac application usually resizes the window to display the content OPTIMALLY. That means it will use your screen width and height as much as it needs to show all the stuff inside the window. Maximizing is a windows concept that has been abloished in the mac developer's guidelines, because Apple feels that maximizing a window cuts your productivity by hiding access to your desktop or other windows. Having to travel to the dock to change windows can be very cumbersome. But macs don't maximize. They mac-simise :-D [/QUOTE]
