Hi Andrea,

For what I mean by xp style menus please see the attached jpg of Leechget and Firefox.

Thanks,

Does anyone know of a way to find
the “real” (i.e. non maximized) size of a window that is currently
maximized? I.e. what size the window will be when it is restored
to its non-maximzed state?

(Hmm, I didn't find anything useful).

For windows maybe:
"Python for Windows extensions".
On Windows, there is the api-function (S)GetWindowPlacement,
which delivers size and pos for "restored" state.

maybe this is not what you were looking for but can't you bind EVT_SIZE to
that window and then store the current size before resizing (maximizing)?

I threw my hands up in the air on this one.

Instead of worrying about size while maximized I store in the config the fact that the window was maximized. If not maximized then I store the windows pos/size. So windows come back maximized, otherwise, last size is restored. This logic seems to work well, as long as a resonable default size is in place for starters.

I don't think there is a way, other than saving the size before the window was maximized.
