Store window maximized state in gsettings

[davidhedlund]

Expected behaviour

Caja's window can be maximized by running: gsettings set org.mate.caja.window-state maximized true

Suggestion: Add org.virt-manager.virt-manager maximized with true or false options

Then it will be possible to always maximize the windows with:

gsettings set org.virt-manager.virt-manager.window-state maximized true
gsettings set org.virt-manager.virt-manager.vm:/org/virt-manager/virt-manager/vms/1c12b91c163e4595b55b8917f0a9a6b2/ window-state maximized true
gsettings set org.virt-manager.virt-manager.vm:/org/virt-manager/virt-manager/vms/cb46ddf83cb14104a1336e7907e91171/ window-state maximized true

Actual behaviour

The window size will be changed if you change the screen resolution, or panel heights.

It is inconvenient to run this to "maximize" the Virtual Machine Manager window:

$ gsettings set org.virt-manager.virt-manager manager-window-width VALUE
$ gsettings set org.virt-manager.virt-manager manager-window-height VALUE

It is inconvenient to "maximize" all virtual machine windows, example with two random virtual machines for 1920x1080 screen resolution with panel height 55 in Ubuntu MATE:
gsettings set org.virt-manager.virt-manager.vm:/org/virt-manager/virt-manager/vms/1c12b91c163e4595b55b8917f0a9a6b2/ vm-window-size '(1920, 993)'
gsettings set org.virt-manager.virt-manager.vm:/org/virt-manager/virt-manager/vms/cb46ddf83cb14104a1336e7907e91171/ vm-window-size '(1920, 993)'

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

There are no options to automatically maximize:

• The Virtual Machine Manager window
• The virtual machine windows that are launched from the Virtual Machine Manager.

I don't understand what are you trying to achieve by doing this. Can you please describe what your use-case is without involving gsettings?

I'm always wanting to maximize all windows (the Virtual Machine Manager window, and all virtual machine windows). If I change my screen resolution later, I want them to adjust to the new screen resolution.
