Changing the window size using the grabber on the window border is possible though.

Thanks Paul. Kindly file all calendar bugs against the Calendar product, that's where they still live even though the calendar is now part of Thunderbird.
I'm not sure if this might be by design - a popup dialog is probably not supposed to cover the entire parent window. Otoh, if you'd volunteer for that by deliberately double-clicking on the title bar (which is only for the initiated, so you really know what you want), maybe we could.
Let's ask Alex, our UX lead.

I never noticed that the calendar event dialog can't be maximized, I never had the need and nobody reported it that it went unnoticed, and I think it was implemented that way by design.
In this cycle we're updating that dialog to be a popup and then open full screen in a tab if the user wants, so to me this is a WONTFIX

Is that design decision documented somewhere? On a small screen with a lot of invited participants maximizing the window would be helpful. (I am always surprised, how designers think to know better.)

It’d be great, if you pointed me to the discussion. My gut feeling says, a tab is not an improvement. I like my windows to be managed by the window manager and sort the mailer next to the event window to copy some information from an email message to the event for example.
