Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin): 7.5 SR4
Operating System: Win 2000

Hi,

After using doc -m 0 to minimise Origin I found (just gave it a go!) I need doc -m 3 to restore Origin application to maximised view.
What should be happening here (no details in documentation).

I find :

doc -m 0 minimises Origin keeping script window in view
doc -m 1 (as shown in examples) results in a reduced origin application.
doc -m 2 minimises origin and script window
doc -m 3 maximises origin
doc -m 4 - as doc -m 1?

Any comment?

Cheers,

pete

This was implemented 2/21/2003 tracker 3684.
Basically, the value after -m is passed into windows API function ShowWindow, with the following copied from winuser.h

#define SW_HIDE 0
#define SW_SHOWNORMAL 1
#define SW_NORMAL 1
#define SW_SHOWMINIMIZED 2
#define SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED 3
#define SW_MAXIMIZE 3
#define SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE 4
#define SW_SHOW 5
#define SW_MINIMIZE 6
#define SW_SHOWMINNOACTIVE 7
#define SW_SHOWNA 8
#define SW_RESTORE 9
#define SW_SHOWDEFAULT 10
#define SW_FORCEMINIMIZE 11
#define SW_MAX 11


You can search any of these macros on google and should get to microsoft MSDN documentation for detailed explanations.
