MaxWidth is used to find out and modify the maximum width of a control or window.
By default, the maximum width:
  • of a control is equal to 2 147 483 647 (0x7FFFFFFF). This value is equivalent to "no maximum size limit".
  • of a window is equal to 20 000. However, the size of windows should not exceed the size of the screen.
Reminder: The maximum width of a control or window is used during the following operations:
  • Window resized by the user.
  • Management of anchors.
The maximum width of a control or window is not used when the window is resized by programming (Width or WinSize).

The width of an object is normally constrained by the properties MaxWidth and MinWidth. However, this constraint disappears when the width is modified by programming (Width or WinSize).
