Maximized Dialog or Modal Frame

Does anyone know, if a (nice) solution exists for either maximizing a dialog or making a frame model? Google and forums search did not reveal any valuable answer.

Well a dialog doesn't have a maximize button so you would just use the setSize(...) method to set it to the maximum size of your screen.

For a JFrame or Frame, you can do the following:frame.setExtendedState(Frame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH);This is not possible with a dialog.

Thanks for your replies, only they did not provide new information (as I did check the APIs).

Setting the dialog's size to maximum would not have the same effect as with maximizing a frame. Maybe it's simply to do with decorations? I wonder, why there has been no mixed dialog/frame component or mechanism till today.
