User wants her screen to open maximized every time. Any ideas?

Hello,

I have a user who would like when she opens Service Call Center, for it to be maximized. I have tried clearing all personalizations and save layout. I have tried setting personalization location to 0,0 and that was close. For some reason though, that is not the actual top left corner of the monitor. When I am in personalization and I maximize the screen, it shows as -8,0. When I save that, it reverts back to original location. Will it not save a negative screen location?

Nothing seems to work. Any ideas?

I appreciate any help I can get.

Thanks,
Shawn

Could you try something like this?
c# - How do I make a WinForms app go Full Screen - Stack Overflow

I am not that great with C# and it looks like it is trying to set screen to full screen which hides the taskbar instead of just maximized. Was hoping there was an easier way???

The Maximized window state shouldn’t hide the taskbar, it’s just the same thing as the user pressing the maximize button in the window.
You could probably spend more time messing around with the personalization settings, I’ve just found those to be very finicky to work with.

Well I feel silly…

There is a field in personalization called WindowState. I set to maximize, save, and re-open the window and it is now maximized!

Thanks for the help, I probably wouldn’t have seen that if I wasn’t talking to you.

I always find it interesting when someone asks for this kind of stuff. As if navigating several open windows wasn’t a thing these days.
