Question:

When you right-click on the InRoads Explorer Window, you have the options to minimize, maximize, close, contract, and expand.  How does the Contract and Expand options differ from the Minimize and Maximize options?

Answer:

Contract and Expand work similar to the Minimize and Maximize options in the InRoads Explorer.  However, it will save the location of the InRoads dialog and its dimensions where you can contract to a smaller window or expand to a larger window for the explorer.  Minimize and maximize options work in extremes to completely collapse or open a window, whereas the Contract and Expand are more controlled changes.
