Hi, all. I need your help.

I made a app and hope it would maximize to the screen size such as 1024x768 or 800x600, according to the system setting. How to do this?

1 2 3 4 5 6	GdkScreen *screen; gint width, height; screen = gdk_screen_get_default (); width = gdk_screen_get_width (screen); height = gdk_screen_get_height (screen);

Thank you.

How about if I change the screen to 800x600 as my app window size and then return to system default size when my app exit?

Use the "size-changed" signal to monitor the size of the screen. As for changing the size of the screen from within your application, if that's what you are saying, I don't think that's a GTK+ thing ...
