DESCRIPTION

maxsize specifies a maximum size for a graphics port.  It is called at the beginning of a graphics program that will be run with the window manager, and takes effect when getport is called.  maxsize may also be called in conjuction with winconstraints to modify the enforced maximum size after the port has been created.  The default maximum size is 1024 pixels wide and 768 pixels high.  As the graphics port is reshaped, the window manager does not allow it to become larger than this maximum size.  If maxsize is called without getport or if the system is not running the window manager, the command is ignored.
