Resizing the notebook..

by christopher Pyle - 05:43PM, Oct 17, 2008

I noticed that I can only get notebook to display on my screen in two configurations. The original (which takes up about 1/3 of the screen space) and the enlarged (which takes up the whole screen). How do I resize notebook to be roughly 1/2 the screen size?

In other words, can I enlarge the actual size of notebook without going full screen?

I appreciate any help

However, the lines in the lower left corner that would allow me to do this are not there at all! I actually went there FIRST! Then I went through the menus and I cannot find a thing that will let me re-size the window. I have 3.0 (version 343). Help! Thank you, Anyse

On the other hand, I’ve written a number of Applescripts to set a window to be a specific size, and in a specific location. There’s tonnes of those around.

When the window automatically fills the screen, it’s very annoying and confusing to the user to go to the FAR RIGHT to click on a link. Is there a way to set the window size for the web user when you launch? For example, these forms will be used at work where the screen are 24 inches across – the title is on the left and the icon is WAYYYYYY over on the right side of the screen. I know to resize the screen, but other users will not. Is that the only solution, telling people to resize their screens?
