  <title>Maximize and unmaximize (restore) a window</title>

    <p> To maximize or unmaximize a window:</p>
<list>
 <item><p>Double-click on the title bar of the window.</p></item>
</list>

<p>Alternatively, to maximize a window:</p>

<list>
 <item><p>Click on the title bar of an application and drag it to the top of the
 screen.  When the mouse pointer touches the top of the screen, the entire screen
 becomes highlighted.  Release the mouse button to maximize the window.</p></item>
</list>

<p>To restore the window to its original size:</p>

<list>
 <item><p>Click on the title bar of the application, and drag it down from the
 top bar.  After the window separates from the top bar it will restore itself to
 an unmaximized state.</p></item>
</list>

    <note style="tip">
      <p>Press <key>Alt</key> +click+hold+drag anywhere in a window. This will
      allow you to move the window. Some people may find this easier than
      clicking on the title bar 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 press <key>x</key>.</p>
