Could somebody please explain why the "View Detail" exception window (when you get an exception in debug mode and you click View Detail") does not have a maximize option/button, but instead you have to maximize it by dragging its edges
On the other hand a "QuickWatch" window has a maximize function to it. I hope that the reason is not that QuickWatch is an application window and ViewDetail is not.
Also at the moment i believe that if you added the time spent by all the programmers that ever manually dragged edges to maximize a View Detail window in Visual Studios you would get...a heart attack...so don't do it! :) Hopefully after i get an answer to this question i won't believe that any more.

Exception window "View Detail" with no maximize function!!!

The maximize button was removed to make it consistant with UI guide line for dialogs in VS. A dialog need a help button on the title bar to bring F1 help page. For some reasons, that button could not be shown, when the maximize button is turned on.
However, it is a known issue. In Orcas Beta1, the "view detail" window will remember it's last size. That should prevent you to resize it constantly.
Thanks
