Hello,
 
I am trying to show a specific form using the ModalWorkspace thrucode below:

SamplePageController.ShowPage(WorkItem, "Page Name", WorkItem.Workspaces[GSC.Standard.Infrastructure.Interface.WorkspaceNames.ModalWindows]);

And when doing this, I was able to show the said form modally but the smartpartinfo Form inside is not maximized in the CAB Modal Window.

Help!

It appears you are using a SummaryDetail page in the modal window workspace.

I got the same result as you did.  The SearchSummaryDetailPage seems to work OK, though, and I found that on construction, the dock style for that page is set to Fill.
 
Apparently, the WindowWorkspace doesn't set the dock style of the smart part it displays.
 
 
Try this:
 
In your page controller, override CreateViews():
 

protected override void CreateViews()

{

base.CreateViews();

((Control)this.MainView).Dock = DockStyle.Fill;

}

It's a hack, but it gets the job done.
