GUIEnv does currently not support this. But it is possible if you include
some of the private implementation in your program.

include '~beta/guienv/v1.6/private/winnt/guienv_ntiprivate'

mainwindow: @window(# ... #);

do .....
     (mainwindow.interfaceObjectID,SW_MAXIMIZE)
                         -> ShowWindow;


You cannot call ShowWindow in mainwindow.open.

Hope this helps.
