Setting IGV window width & height via port or batch file interface

[bw2]

Is there a way to control IGV window width & height through these interfaces?
Currently, I'm not finding a way to do this, and end up with screenshots that aren't wide enough (or tall enough, although I see that maxPanelHeight can be used to deal with height).

There's no way to manipulate actual width and height of the window,
which of course would not be a good idea when running igv as a client.
Running "headless" is not something we support or have time to test,
although we are aware that people do it. The only way to
programmatically maniuplate window size would be to manipulate the
"prefs.properties" file in the igv directory of the user that it is run
under. Specifically set the IGV.Bounds property, which is left, top,
width, height

IGV.Bounds=267,22,1150,800

I see. That should be good enough. Thanks!

By this way a window size larger than the screen size is not allowed. Is there any way that I can preset a window size which is not constraint by the screen size, without debugging the source code? Many thanks.

I don't understand what you are asking, how could you present a window larger than the screen?

Why always is "IGV.Bounds=0,0,1150,800"
I chang that, but it change by itself
Can I set "IGV.Bounds=0,0,2048,1080" ?

Dose you screen support that resolution? That is not meant to be a user-settable value, it simply records the size of the IGV window when it is shut down. Setting this is not a supported function.
