<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 a window will allow you to move the window. Some people may find this easier than needing to click in the <gui>title bar</gui> 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>.
