with google maps API v2 we can maximize the infowindow by specifying maxTitle property. Can anyone show me how we can maximize the infowindow with v3 of google map api.
Thanks

I do not think there is yet an official way in version 3 to maximise Google Maps info windows as you could with version 2.
However you can acheive something similar, see code below. I am sorry my example code isn't very generic - if you require multiple markers you will need to re-write my code to use arrays or object literals or something.
