💖 SDL_SetWindowMaximumSize(3) 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the SDL3 FUNCTIONS corner of the man pages, where we're talking about SDL_SetWindowMaximumSize — literally the glow-up that stops your window from getting too big for its own good 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

SDL_SetWindowMaximumSize — set the maximum size of a window's client area. like, the ceiling. the limit. the "no ma'am, you may not grow past this" line 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <SDL3/SDL_video.h>

bool SDL_SetWindowMaximumSize(SDL_Window *window, int max_w, int max_h);

🦋 FUNCTION PARAMETERS 🦋

  • window — the window to change. yes, this one. the one you're pointing at 🫶
  • max_w — the maximum width of the window, or 0 for no limit. zero means "go wild, no cap" 🌈
  • max_h — the maximum height of the window, or 0 for no limit. same energy, vertical edition ✨

💜 RETURN VALUE 💜

Returns true on success or false on failure. and if it flops? call SDL_GetError() for more info, because she will absolutely tell you what went wrong 😭

🧚 THREAD SAFETY 🧚

This function should only be called on the main thread. no side-quests, no other threads, main character energy only 👑

⭐ AVAILABILITY ⭐

This function is available since SDL 3.2.0. so if you're on something older... not me being unsupported 🙈
