Thanks for responding. We looked at the custom popup sample and it is not that easy to convert into a real popup. We tried it in jsfiddle and it cannot fill the screen that easily. The html and css is entirely up to the user, including the layout, position, clicks. It seems just a starting point for a full custom implementation. Also it seems the width calculation is burned into obfuscated javascript code.
I can understand changes to the default InfoWindow experience, but 3.34 actually breaks maxWidth as documented, and decreases overall flexibility. There are users like me who need to display a fair amount of content, and the wider window is helpful for that purpose on smaller screens (phones). Because myself and other developers rely on the built-in InfoWindow for that, may I kindly ask that you reconsider, and take another look at this?

Description
Dim iwOptions = New With {
.maxWidth = Me.Width - 50,
.content = strHTML
}
GoogleMap1.ShowInfoWindow("test", iwOptions)
As of version 3.34, this no longer works. The width is capped at about 75% of the screen width. Downgrading the API to 3.33 of the Javascript API, it works like it used to.
I am not certain but maybe this is because the parent div's width is constraining gm-style-iw ?
thanks
