I don\'t want a fullscreen application, but I would like to start a Node-Webkit application maximized. Can this be done? I am guessing its something to do with package.json, but
I don't think the manifest has an option to do that. Instead, call nw's Window.maximize()
on startup. Something like:
// Load native UI library
var ngui = require('nw.gui');
// Get the current window
var nwin = ngui.Window.get();
Sometime later, in onload
or some other point where you're ready to show the window:
onload = function() {
nwin.show();
nwin.maximize();
}
This is described in the node-webkit wiki. I don't think you can call maximize before showing the main window though (if it's hidden in manifest), but I haven't really dug into it.
You may want to consider saving the window position, from a UX standpoint. The wiki has an example for doing this.
