On Win32, it is set in the registry keys:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Research Systems, Inc./IDL/0/IDL
DLL/HGraphicWind
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Research Systems, Inc./IDL/0/IDL
DLL/WGraphicWind

Note that the "0" refers to the IDL installation and may differ on your
machine.

For Unix, I would assume there is a text config file somewhere. I would
guess there would be something similar on Mac.

You could change them all programmatically (if that is what you want to do).
The config files could be read and rewritten (depending on permissions), and
on windows you could craft a .reg file and then execute regedit to modify
the key. You could also write a simple .dlm for windows to add/edit reg
keys.

From http://www.designmatrix.com/services/XResources_example.html use ->

!---- Graphics window dimensions. IDL defaults are 512 high and 640 wide.
Idl.graphicsWindowHeight: 400
Idl.graphicsWindowWidth: 400

these can be put into $HOME/.Xdefaults or elsewhere as noted in the above
web-page.
