Instead, the dimensions the popup will have when restored are returned. This is so because a maximized RadWindow will resize with the browser. A possible workaround is using the Telerik Static Client Library: http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/telerik-static-client-library.html var wnd = $find("RadWindow1"); wnd.maximize(); var bounds = $telerik.getBounds(wnd.get_popupElement()); alert(bounds.width);
