Programmatically maximize simulink window

we can change the location and rezie the simulink window by this code

set_param(gcs,'location',[0 0 1920 1100])

however, it actually different than "maximizing" window.

is there any parameter to "maximize" simulink window?

Hi @skamajaya,

I see that you want to maximize the Simulink window in a programmatic way using MATLAB code.

I do not see a direct way to maximize the Simulink window, however you can achieve a similar effect by making the Simulink window size match the size of your screen.

You can use the “get” function to retrieve the screen size and then set the parameters accordingly.

You can refer to the code snippet below:

% Get the screen size, 0 will fetch the size of your primary screen
screenSize = get(0, 'ScreenSize');

% Set the Simulink window location to match the screen size
set_param(gcs, 'Location', [0 0 screenSize(3) screenSize(4)]);

I hope this helps!

it could be interesting workarond, even tough i need to subtract with estimated toolbar size manually.

do you know how to the size of second or third display ?

"do you know how to the size of second or third display ? "

The root property MonitorPositions contains the sizes (and locations) of all displays.

pos = get(groot(),'MonitorPositions')
