Can you prevent a QB64 program from being maximized under Linux?

Did you also try this statement?

Remember that QB64PE is less ready on Linux than on Windows with GUI-heavy stuff. It's primarily because there are two GUI frameworks to worry about, the GNOME Tool Kit (GTK) and the Qt by KDE. Freeglut has to communicate with either one, but it might be better to access the framework directly. It's hard because stuff keeps being changed on Qt and recently they moved up from v5 to v6 and there's full speed ahead for KDE Plasma v6. GTK could go back to v2 which is clunky but it's used by many programs around for decades like Audacity, GIMP and Libreoffice.

You might want to return to Windows and compile to EXE file, then run those programs through Wine. I know it's a lame way to distribute programs but otherwise trying to control when to resize and maximize could really put off a seasoned user of Linux trying to use your program.
