On the upper right of the screen there are three squares. The middle one either has a single square or two little squares going diagonally. If it's the two little squares, click the box and make it a single square. If the window needs further adjustment, follow the directions below:

Put the cursor (the little arrow that moves when you move da mouse ) into the blue field or band at the top of the screen. Click and hold the left mouse button and pull the whole screen to the right until you can see the right edge of the G&G window. The edge of the window should be a thin blue strip - move the cursor over the thin blue strip on the right until it changes to a double ended arrow pointing right and left. Click and hold the left mouse button and pull the edge of the window to the left about halfway across the screen. Now put the cursor back into the blue band at the top, click and pull the whole window to the right until the left edge lines up wit the left edge of the screen. Go back to the blue strip on the right - double arrow again, click and stretch (pull) the right side back to the right until the window fits the screen.

That should do 'er!

I swear Colt, if the zoom or maximise is off (big square on top right instead of two small diagonal squares) you should be able to move and stretch the window until it fits? Same thing, put the cursor in the bottom right corner and you can stretch the window horiz and vert at the same time? The maximise has to be off on the top right - restore down is the proper def. - before you can stretch the window.

If that don't work then just shoot the dang thing?

Thumbs up Patience is a virtue...and I'm in short supply right now.

I've got the same symptom. Should we call the CDC? :jaw:

It's been like that all morning and has happened earlier from time to time. I think it's the result of Chris working on the server or something. I'll give it a while before I change any of my settings.:right:

Mee too

The title bar and the footer bar of the screen are just fine, it is just when I have the forums contents displayed that half of that is off the screen.

And it is only on the first pag of any forum where i experience this, if you guys click to go to the second page of any given forum, is that one okay? It is on mine....

We all cannot have had that rough a night, can we??

And none of us can say, Mine's bigger than yours as we are all off the page.... can I get a high five???
