maxsize()  —  Silicon Graphics

NAME

maxsize − specifies a maximum size for a graphics window in the window manager

SPECIFICATION

C
maxsize(x, y)
long x, y;

FORTRAN
subroutine maxsiz(x, y)
integer*4 x, y

Pascal
procedure maxsize(x, y: longint);

DESCRIPTION

maxsize specifies a maximum size for a graphics window.  Call it at the beginning of a graphics program that is run with the window manager.  maxsize takes effect when winopen is called. 

You can also call maxsize in conjunction with winconstraints to modify the enforced maximum size after the window has been created.  The default maximum size is 1024 pixels wide and 768 pixels high.  The user can reshape the graphics window, but the window manager does not allow it to become larger than the specified maximum size.  If maxsize is called without winopen, or if the system is not running the window manager, the routine is ignored. 

SEE ALSO

winopen, minsize Using mex, the IRIS Window Manager

NOTE

This routine is available only in immediate mode.
