+ <title>Maximize and unmaximize (restore) a window:</title>
+
+ <p> To maximize or unmaximize a window, you can:</p>
+ <list>
+ <item>
+ <p>
+ To maximize a window, click on the <gui>title bar</gui> of an application, and drag it to the top of the screen. When the <gui>mouse pointer</gui> touches the very top of the screen, the entire screen becomes hilighted. Release the mouse button to maximize the screen.
+ </p>
+ <item>
+
+ </item>
+ <p>
+ To restore the window to its original size, click on the <gui>title bar</gui> of the application, and drag it down from the <gui>top bar</gui>. After the window separates from the <gui>top bar</gui> it will restore itself to an unmaximized state.
+ </p>
+ </item>
+ </list>
+
+ <note style="tip">
+ <p>
+ Pressing <keyseq><key>Alt</key><key>right-click</key></keyseq> anywhere in the application screen will allow you to move the application. Some people may find this easier than needing to click in the <gui>title bar</gui> area of an application.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ You can also use your keyboard to maximize a window. Press <keyseq><key>Alt</key><key>Space</key></keyseq> to bring up the window menu, and then press <key>x</key>.
