Limits for imaqSetWindowSize

Hi,
is there size limit for imaq window? If so, how can I solve following problem:

I need to load and calculate characteristics (resolution, noise, color etc) from 1200x1600(HxW) images, but image window is clipped. I use imaqReadile and imaqDisplayImage (with Resize TRUE) functions.

Thanks in advance...

I am not sure if there are any specific limits, but I have noticed that frequently the IMAQ window will be clipped to fit the screen during an auto resize. I have displayed 1600x1200 images before on a 1600x1200 screen with no problems. My solutions would be: set the screen resolution higher, or use window resizing to manually set the dimensions of the window. If you can't display the entire image at one time, turning on scrollbars is another option that works well.

I will definitely support Bruce's answer. It happens very often also in other environments like LabVIEW that you display the image and the Image Window appears clipped or cropped. Setting up scrollbars will do the job. We don't have a limit on the window size it will more likely be limited by the size of the image buffer you can allocate in memory. And of course by the data type, 'int', but I don't believe anyone will use a window size of that magnitude as to roll over the data type.
