(OP)
Is there a parameter that you can change to have Pro/E open in full screen?

RE: opening Pro/E Wildfire in fullscreen
I think the config option is: open_window_maximized. You will need to "Find" it. It is not in the standard list displayed in your config options.
Worth the effort I can assure you.

A word of warning do not use the hidden options

They can be very useful and in some are required to get your work done.

"Fixed in the next release" should replace "Product First" as the PTC slogan.

Maybe we should write a FAQ on using these config options because to the novice user config options can seem convoluted. They're hidden for a reason! I'm not trying to second guess anybody just trying to put out a warning "use at your own risk"

RE: opening Pro/E Wildfire in fullscreen
First, thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, it didn't work. I added that parameter into my config.pro file, saved it, opened up WF, still opened to the default setting. Thought it might be the "window_scale" param but that is set to 1.000. Any other ideas? Am I doing something wrong? Thanks.

OPEN_WINDOW_MAXIMIZED (hidden)

RE: opening Pro/E Wildfire in fullscreen
I've tried editing my config.pro file with "OPEN_WINDOW_MAXIMIZED (hidden)" also, left out the "hidden", also added "yes" to the param. Still, opens the same (about 85% I presume). How do I view the hidded params? Should I be using a different editor (using notepad to edit)? Thanks for all of your help it is appreciated.
