#s::
WinGet MX, MinMax, A
   If MX
        WinRestore A
   Else WinMaximize A
return
</code>
  * window resize <code>;=============base function of resize
    ResizeWin(Width = 0,Height = 0)
    {
      WinGetPos,X,Y,W,H,A
      If %Width% = 0
        Width := W

      If %Height% = 0
        Height := H

      WinMove,A,,%X%,%Y%,%Width%,%Height%
    }
    PoseWin(locx = 0,locy = 0)
    {
      WinGetPos,X,Y,W,H,A
      If %locx% = 0
        locx := X

      If %locy% = 0
        locy := Y

      WinMove,A,,%locx%,%locy%,%W%,%H%
    }

#F1::ResizeWin(1024,768)
#F2::ResizeWin(800,600)
#F3::ResizeWin(640,480)
#F4::PoseWin(1,1)

  * move window with left-mouse-button drag while holding Windows key <code>
;----------------move tool
LWIN & !LButton::

CoordMode, Mouse  ; Switch to screen/absolute coordinates.
MouseGetPos, EWD_MouseStartX, EWD_MouseStartY, EWD_MouseWin
WinGetPos, EWD_OriginalPosX, EWD_OriginalPosY,,, ahk_id %EWD_MouseWin%
WinGet, EWD_WinState, MinMax, ahk_id %EWD_MouseWin%
if EWD_WinState = 0  ; Only if the window isn't maximized
    SetTimer, EWD_WatchMouse, 10 ; Track the mouse as the user drags it.
return

EWD_WatchMouse:
GetKeyState, EWD_LButtonState, LButton, P
if EWD_LButtonState = U  ; Button has been released, so drag is complete.
{
    SetTimer, EWD_WatchMouse, off
    return
}
GetKeyState, EWD_EscapeState, Escape, P
if EWD_EscapeState = D  ; Escape has been pressed, so drag is cancelled.
{
    SetTimer, EWD_WatchMouse, off
    WinMove, ahk_id %EWD_MouseWin%,, %EWD_OriginalPosX%, %EWD_OriginalPosY%
    return
}
; Otherwise, reposition the window to match the change in mouse coordinates
; caused by the user having dragged the mouse:
CoordMode, Mouse
MouseGetPos, EWD_MouseX, EWD_MouseY
WinGetPos, EWD_WinX, EWD_WinY,,, ahk_id %EWD_MouseWin%
SetWinDelay, -1   ; Makes the below move faster/smoother.
WinMove, ahk_id %EWD_MouseWin%,, EWD_WinX + EWD_MouseX - EWD_MouseStartX, EWD_WinY + EWD_MouseY - EWD_MouseStartY
EWD_MouseStartX := EWD_MouseX  ; Update for the next timer-call to this subroutine.
EWD_MouseStartY := EWD_MouseY
return
