You can use another value PreferredLaunchViewSize
from ApplicationViewWindowingMode
and then set ApplicationView.PreferredLaunchViewSize
but the key is to find out what the size is going to be.
Theoretically, you could use a really big number and window would just extend to the max it could be. However, it's probably safer to just calculate the screen dimensions in effective pixels.
So if you just call the following method before InitializeComponent();
on your main Page
, it should maximize the window on startup.
private static void MaximizeWindowOnLoad()
{
// Get how big the window can be in epx.
var bounds = ApplicationView.GetForCurrentView().VisibleBounds;
ApplicationView.PreferredLaunchViewSize = new Size(bounds.Width, bounds.Height);
ApplicationView.PreferredLaunchWindowingMode = ApplicationViewWindowingMode.PreferredLaunchViewSize;
}
Note the app somehow remembers these settings even after you uninstalled it. If you ever want to change back to the default behavior (app starts up with the previous window size), simply call ApplicationView.PreferredLaunchWindowingMode = ApplicationViewWindowingMode.Auto;
once and remove all the code.
Update
Looks like in the latest Windows 10 build, ApplicationView.GetForCurrentView().VisibleBounds
no longer returns the full window size in effective pixels anymore. So we now need a new way to calculate it.
Turns out it's quite straightforward since the DisplayInformation
class also gives us the screen resolution as well as the scale factor.
The following is the updated code -
public MainPage()
{
MaximizeWindowOnLoad();
InitializeComponent();
void MaximizeWindowOnLoad()
{
var view = DisplayInformation.GetForCurrentView();
// Get the screen resolution (APIs available from 14393 onward).
var resolution = new Size(view.ScreenWidthInRawPixels, view.ScreenHeightInRawPixels);
// Calculate the screen size in effective pixels.
// Note the height of the Windows Taskbar is ignored here since the app will only be given the maxium available size.
var scale = view.ResolutionScale == ResolutionScale.Invalid ? 1 : view.RawPixelsPerViewPixel;
var bounds = new Size(resolution.Width / scale, resolution.Height / scale);
ApplicationView.PreferredLaunchViewSize = new Size(bounds.Width, bounds.Height);
ApplicationView.PreferredLaunchWindowingMode = ApplicationViewWindowingMode.PreferredLaunchViewSize;
}
}
