zoomed

 get [the] zoomed of window
set [the] zoomed of window ¬
    to trueOrFalse 

When the zoomed is true, window is full sized and centered on the current display. The zoomed becomes false when the user drags the window from its original position and/or resizes it.

Window is any window with a zoom box. If window is straddling two displays, setting the zoomed to true opens window to its full size and centers it on the display holding more than half of the window's image.

Clicking the zoom box toggles the zoomed between true and false.

Examples

set the zoomed of the card window to true 
set the zoomed of window "Zoomer" to true

Demo Script
