NSWindow maximized?

Question

does anybody know a correct solution for this code?

BOOL maximized = [myWindow isMaximized];

Answer 1

Maybe take a look at isZoomed

Answer 2

If you want to maximize your NSWindow then you will have to set its frame size to the main screen size, as below

NSWindow* myWindow; //Your window object to maximize

[myWindow setFrame:[[NSScreen mainScreen] visibleFrame] display:YES];

Answer 3

There's not such thing as a maximized window in OSX. isZoomed is the closest approximation, but that also returns true:

• in full screen mode.
• for windows with NSBorderlessWindowMask style.

(tested with OS X 10.9)
