I'm not reffering to the use of the create window gadget... Is there a way to make a resizable/maximizable game window in BlitMax? Because whenever I make a game that doesn't use the CreateWindow module, the maixmize button seems to be disabled and I'm not sure why.

Thanks in advance.

My guess is the window size is based on the graphics setting chosen. Check Desktop() to get the client (or gadget?) size and try setting your graphic deminsions to that.

On further thought you're basically in fullscreen mode if you're not working inside a GUI window. The window framing is a just dressing added by the IDE. You cannot have GUI controls if you're not running GUI
