# maximizeLocalTile()

Maximizes user's local (own) tile. Note that this doesn't affect other (remote) users.\
If user's tile is already maximized, then calling this method has no effect.

```javascript
sambaFrame.maximizeLocalTile();
```

**Sample use cases**: 

* Having the local (own) tile minimized and wanting to maximize it.
