Hello,

Is there a way, using the KDE (GUI), to force an application to start in a maximized window when the link is clicked? In Windows(XP), this can be set in the "properties" context menu for the Shortcut (link). Is there an equivalent function in Kubuntu (KDE)?

One way to do it:

Right click an application border > Advanced > Special Application Settings > Geometry tab:

Size | Remember/Force | If you are using "Remember" then Maximise window before you close it. If you are using "Force" put dimensions on the last box.

or

Fullscreen | Force | cross in the box


Alt + F3 is your friend with fullscreen .


Also: K > System Settings > Window Behavior ...
