[SOLVED] chromium application window maximized

MatejLach · 2011-12-23 22:48:19

So, I have xfce4-mailwatch-plugin set up to open gmail on left click:
command:

chromium --app=https://mail.google.com/mail

It works fine, but it will not open maximized as I would like it to do.
Is there any switch or such, that will help me accomplish this?

Thanks for any suggestions,

chromium --kiosk

EDIT: oops, did you want maximized, or fullscreen? if you wan maximized you'd probably be better of with WM configuration. I know in openbox that would be an <application> entry in openbox's rc.xml. I'm not sure about XFWM, but I'm sure it has a comparable option.

I suppose maximized app mode would be fullscreen wouldn't it. Sometimes I type much faster than I think.

Note that --kiosk and --app seem to conflict, but you can do

chromium --kiosk https://mail.google.com/mail

for the desired effect.

I know this is already solved, just want to post another solution in case somebody will need it.

If you want to open any url from cmdl or any script/application (such as mailwatch plugin, you can simply do:

chromium "https://mail.google.com/mail"

- and it will open as a new tab... (and the only one if you're got no tabs open)...
