Custom Boot Wizard – Maximizing the window

2010-03-24

From the archive (2010). Written for the tools of the time, so some details may be out of date.

I had previously done a bunch of work on making my custom boot wizard a certain size and centered, and it just didn’t always look as good as I wanted it to with various screen resolutions.  So I’ve resorted to simply always making sure the window is maximized :)

Open your wizardeditor and go to your global pane.  Then you will want to add a customstatement and put the following text in:

window.moveTo 0,0
window.resizeTo screen.availWidth, screen.availHeight

That’s it, save your changes, update your boot image, and test.  You should now have a front-end that is maximized and no longer need to worry about it being centered or large enough to contain your information.
