17 Initial Window Sizing
(First implemented in 4.0J.)
Previous versions always opened the previewer as a full-screen (maximized)
window.
A new command-line option, -d x y w h, lets you specify the
initial size of the TRUETEX previewer window. The coordinates
(x,y ) specify the screen coordinates of the upper-left corner
of the window, and w and h specify the width and height
respectively in pixels.
If x or y is negative, the initial window will be maximized
and the restore-size of the window will be set from (w,h )
anchored at the Windows default position.
If either w or h is negative,
the width and/or height of the window
will be extended to the respective edge of the screen.
For example, ``-d -1 -1 -1 -1'' starts a maximized window,
``-d 100 100 500 500'' a 500 × 500 window anchored at
screen coordinates (100,100).
and ``-d 100 100 -1 -1'' a window anchored at (100,100) and extending
to the right and bottom edges of the screen.
To start a minimized (iconic) window, check the Run Minimized option
in the Program Item Properties dialog of the Program Manager,
or set the appropriate value in nCmdShow in the WinExec call.
