| Full screen off by 1/4 inch It could have been a M$ update, I have made one or two in the past month.But I'm normally real picky about what updates I'll let it install. Mostly just security updates. I've hidden all video updates cause it just totally screws my window. Just recently when I hit full screen for all programs, it goes to the topof the screen. and the bottom locks up 1/4 inch above the status bar. To get full screen the way hitting the FS button I have to go to normal mode, and resize the window top and bottom. The windows will move to the statusbar, and the top, but I'm guessing something is telling all the programs that full screen is now 1/4 inch higher and shorter than it was awhile back. How do I get the full screen back to full screen ? -- more pix @ [url]http://members.toast.net/cbminfo/index.html[/url] |

| Re: Full screen off by 1/4 inch Adjust the default size of windows Changing the size of a window sets the default size of subsequent windows you open for that particular program or folder. For example, if you're using WordPad, and you want your document windows to open to the same size, you can resize one document window, and then any document windows you later open will be the same size. To resize a window To change the height, point to the top or bottom window border. When the pointer changes into a vertical, double-headed arrow , click the border, and then drag it up or down. To change the width, point to the left or right window border. When the pointer changes into a horizontal, double-headed arrow , click the border, and then drag it to the right or left. To change the height and width at the same time, point to any window corner. When the pointer changes into a diagonal, double-headed arrow , click the border, and then drag it in any direction. Note You can't resize a window that's minimized or maximized.
