When you click on a WeBWorK graph, a copy of the graph appears in a separate browser window. Is there any way to control the size of this window and/or the size of the image that appears in it?

For static graphics, webwork simply gives you the graphic. For on the fly graphics in webwork 2, the size of the graph (in pixels) is set in global.conf as 
$pg{specialPGEnvironmentVars}{onTheFlyImageSize}      = 400

Then, if the browser is set to allow javascript, it is used to try to set the size of the pop-up to be slightly larger than the graph. Otherwise, you just get a new full-sized window.

John,

Thank you. I increased this constant, and it had exactly the effect I was looking for.
