A value that indicates the current state of the window. The default is Normal.

SecurityException

When setting this property, except in response to a user-initiated action, the Application.Startup event has already occurred and Application.HasElevatedPermissions is false.

Remarks

You can set this property only in the following cases:

Examples

The following code example demonstrates the use of this property.

' Maximize the main window.
Private Sub MaxButton_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.RoutedEventArgs)
    If Application.Current.IsRunningOutOfBrowser Then
        Application.Current.MainWindow.WindowState = WindowState.Maximized
    End If
End Sub

// Maximize the main window.
private void MaxButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
    if (Application.Current.IsRunningOutOfBrowser)
    {
        Application.Current.MainWindow.WindowState = WindowState.Maximized;
    }
}
