Bookmark display too wide

Pardon any terminology that doesn't conform to Firefox terms. When I look at my bookmarks, the display is way too wide and thus difficult to work with.
I have lots of Bookmarks and some of them are from sites that have put a ridiculous amount of text into the "title" field of the HTML page which is what is saved in addition to the URL when you bookmark a page.
Firefox 4 differs from Firefox 3.x in having two obvious ways to display the list of your bookmarks.
http://homepage.mac.com/jimcarr/FF4-1.png shows a list generated from menu at right edge of icon bar and has a rational width.
http://homepage.mac.com/jimcarr/FF4-2.png shows list of same bookmarks as displayed with Bookmarks menu. There is a very wide item off the bottom of the list that has forced display way too wide.
Would be helpful if a reasonable width limit was imposed--either fixed to same as smaller display or adjustable in about:config.

Are you using code in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/UserChrome.css userChrome.css] ?
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Editing_configuration#How_to_edit_configuration_files
Are you using the Default theme (Tools > Add-ons > Themes)?
Does that still happen with a new profile?
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems. 
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

Sequence displaying too wide

I must have messed up something, but I don't know what.
I have two settings: 720x480 and 640x360. Both are set to the actual size of the footage being used. This worked just fine before (and still works in one old file - but if I import it into a new file - it has the same issue).
The issue is the display screen for these sequences is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too wide. I have huge black bars on the side - and, yes, they export that way. I have no idea why it's so wide when it's SUPPOSED to be as noted above, and says it is in info, but clearly it's not when it's such a long and skinny rectangle that it makes the footage almost look square. :S
Help?! I can't get any work done until this is fixed.

Jim,
No. There is some sort of glitch happening in the program. There are no black bars in the footage.
The video shows correctly in the source window. But I can literally fit TWO of them side by side in the sequence window. So the sequence is NOT 720x480, even though it says it is, it's 1440x480.
I have tested these videos before - I have files where they looked fine - but if I open those same files - the sequence window has stretched itself out.
This is not anything in the video - though I checked all of that, just to be sure. The video does not provide any help for my issue.

Display Too Wide

Today a relative used my Ipad2. He is now gone. But i noticed that now the display width exceeds the screen size. For instance now i cannot see the whole keyboard whereas before the default would be to show the entire keyboard within the edges of the physical display. Any thoughts?

Double tap the screen with 3 fingers to turn the Accessibility zoom feature off.

Audacity displays too wide open file dialog

The problem concerns "File - Open..." and "File - Import - Audio..." dialogs. Window height is small enough to fit on the screen, but it has width about 5 times larger than screen (1600x900). It is possible to change window height to both smaller and larger size, but width can be made larger only. The reason is probably second position in the "file types" filter list, it has many extensions in one line. Did you notice same Audacity behaviour?

I don't understand how iMovie works with those thumbnails.
I imported some DV footage from an old iMovie HD, 2 clips. The files generated by iMovie'08 looks like this:
clip1.dv is 768x567 and is 118 MB on disk (although Quicktime reports 238 MB) and clip2.dv is 768x567 and 53 MB on disk. iMovie'08 creates a folder iMovie Cache with a file Cache.mov, 720x576, 12 kB on disk. In the folder iMovie Thumbnails is the file clip01.mov, 160x90, 10 MB on disk and clip02.mov, 160x90, 4.5 MB on disk. In the subfolder iMovie Cache is the file Cache.mov, 160x90, 16 kB.
Now, the HD footage I had to process differently. In order to get it into iMovie'08, I used VisualHub to convert the 1 hour video at 1440x1088, 10 GB on disk, file HD.mpeg to AppleTV format (720p) as HD.mp4, now 1280x720, 1.5 GB. I import this in iMovie, goes fine, takes a minute or so. Then iMovie starts creating its thumbnails. It took 4 hours 9 minutes!
The clip is in there as one 1 hour clip. The file structure is as follows: HD.mp4 is 1280x720, 1.5 GB on disk. In the folder iMovie Cache is cache.mov, 1280x720, 2.1 MB. In the folder iMovie Thumbnails is HD.mov, 160x90, 980 MB on disk - ie. two-thirds the size of the original file, in 1/64 the resolution! In the subfolder iMovie Cache is cache.mov, 160x90, 590 kB.
Skimming is hardly possible on the HD clip, especially moving the cursor backwards, and it is hard to trim selections. It plays fine, though. For the DV clips skimming it works fine.
Any ideas what is going on here, and how to work around? Is the inefficiency due to the very large clip? I tried to trim of a 2 min clip from the original file and put it through the same conversion, but the result was more or less the same, skimming-wise - very inefficient.

The window displaying bookmarks is too large (suddenly happened with the new version). I can't figure out how to make the display smaller. Zooming out does not work on the bookmark menu display.

I have version 4, just downloaded, and a Mac w. OS 10.6. 7.
The bookmarks display (when I pull down "bookmarks") is much too wide. I can't figure out how to reduce the display size. The window is not persistent so I can't even get you a screen shot.
Thanks, Sara

It seems there was a change in Firefox 4 where the width of the drop-down is now determined by the length the longest bookmark name in the folder being displayed. Previous versions of Firefox would shorten a long name like that and add an ellipsis to signify the name was truncated.
Sorry, I don't know how to change that other than to advise you to edit the name of that long bookmark name and make it less verbose. Just scroll down the list of bookmarks in that wide folder until you see the culprit, then right-click that bookmark and open Properties & edit the Name line at the top of that dialog.

Bookmark panes are too wide

My FF5 bookmark panes are too wide. I've found suggestions in the database to edit site titles to shorten them. Having to edit bookmark webpage titles is unacceptable. That means external website naming practices can take over my browser's bookmark display characteristics.
My Firefox 4. doesn't do wide bookmark panes - I reinstalled Firefox 4. and checked ( and left FF4 installed so I have a useful browser.) Something in FF5 has changed, maybe an unknown preferences file
Old questions/answers in the help database about FF4 behavior when FF4 was newly released suggest editing a userChrome.css file, but suggested edits are not working for me, and in any case I didn't have to do such with FF4 - it was usable out of the box. Also FF5 doesn't seem to be opening userChrome.css anyway.
What gives?

Hi Spencer,
I now understand that you're describing the bookmark functionality within Acrobat... I'm afraid this forum relates to the online services at Acrobat.com, and I'm not able to answer your question. However, I have two resources for you to try...

Reports Parameter form via rwservlet in 9i Reports display is too wide

We have an app which was developed in Web Forms 6/6i which we are migrating to 9iAS Release 2/Reports 9i. We are running the .RDF reports using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT with rwservlet and PARAMFORM=YES. The parameter form sizes are generally 5x5, but the parameters display much wider in the 9iAS Release 2/Reports 9i environment in the Web Browser than they did in 6i. I have tried making the Parameter Form smaller, but the display still is way too wide: The browser window has to be scrolled several inches to the right to be viewed.
Any ideas on the root cause of this issue and how to fix? Or, any solutions to fix besides using RUN_REPORT_OBJECT? We don't have time or resources to write 100 parameter forms in Forms and do the call to Reports that way. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Judith, we had the same problem and the fix was to add the following parameter to the reports.sh file in the BI&Forms Oracle home:
REPORTS_DEFAULT_PIXEL_SIZE=80;
export REPORTS_DEFAULT_PIXEL_SIZE
After that, the report server needed to be stopped and restarted for the change to take effect.

Monaco Font Looks Too Wide To Display on Konsole

I use Monaco as the default font of konsole. The bold format of Monaco font looks too wide to display a complete letter.
As shown in the picture, the last character of the file name disappears.
I also disselect the Draw intense colors in bold font checkbox in the konsole profile. It does not work. How could I fix that problem?

yeah you can use the remote app on other ios devices and place the ios device in question as close to your eyes as you see fit

Photoshop display a little too wide

I haven't been able to figure out a solution to this annoying problem.
I'm running Windows Vista on an HP with a 24" LCD monitor, an NVidea 8800# series video card and when I bring up Photoshop the display is a little too wide for the screen. Not a lot too wide, just a little too wide so that the left hand side of the display is cut off...just a little. It's not inoperable as I can guess at what is there from what is already showing on my screen but it would be much better if this wasn't happening. I don't know if I should be addressing this in an Adobe forum or somewhere else but it isn't happening with my other applications (i.e. Word, internet site screens etc).
If anybody could give me a clue, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks,
j.

Are you running the monitor at its native resolution? If not, you
should. Most 24" widescreens are 1920x1200.

The bookmark drop down tab is too wide on version 6. It worked just fine on version 3.6. Thanks

The bookmark drop down tab is too wide on version 6. It worked just fine on version 3.6. I know you can shorten the individual urls, but why should I have to do this? I am sticking with 3.6 until this problem is resolved.

That can be caused by having some bookmarks with a long title. 
The width of a column in the Bookmarks menu list is in current Firefox versions automatically adjusted to fit the bookmark with the longest name. 
You can check the names of the bookmarks and make the longer ones shorter.

Display bug LR CC: adjustment panels seem too wide

All the Adjustment tools (crop-gradient filters, etc)have their panel too wide. This cuts off the numbers on the left. See screen shot. OSX 10.10.2.

Other info: it only happens in FRENCH with a long slider name: On the image above, note the "Defringe"; in French it is way longer "Supprimer la frange". I changed the language to verify, and it is the case.

Since I moved to this new version, the bookmark bar is much too wide. Can I shrink it back down to its old size?

I have a lot of sub-bars under the headings in the main bar, and in the new Firefox version, I have great difficulty moving over to them with my mouse. You have widened the main bookmark bar too much. I want to go back to the size that it was in earlier versions.

Do you want to remove the icons?

Navigation bar too wide for template graphic after creating new page

I want to stick within the templates, but I have a lot of pages and don't want them all in the nav bar. When I flagged a page to keep it out of the NAV bar, the NAV bar get messed up - not properly displaying at the edge of the template, like it made room for the hidden page's link then re-adjusted itself too wide for the background graphic. I've got the problem in the elegant template when displayed in IE on Windows (1024X768). Safari on my mac looks OK. Are there any other setting changes I can make to be better compatible?
Thanks
Anne

It appears to have been a cache issue or some such. I no longer see the problem

Anyone know of a way to adjust the top and side MARGINS of a document printed from iOS numbers? The default margins are too wide. Need more working space.

Open the document,
Tap the Tools icon (upper right).
Tap Document Set up.
Drag the margins to the position you wish (the actual margin width sould display as you are doing this).

Distorted video - too wide

I have posted about this on Crackberry.com. But maybe should bring it up here.
The main problem is that when viewing a video on my Z10, images are stretched left to right and so people are wider than normal and also objects like buildings, etc also are too wide. It is less noticeable in landscape screens. Upon a suggestion I received today, I opened the same video in the Z10's Browser and the video is NOT distorted. But I think that the app should work properly.
Here's some extracts from the thread:
http://forums.crackberry.com/blackberry-z10-f254/distorted-video-too-wide-849144/
I copied a homemade mp4 file to the z10 of one of my vacation trips (I create a dvd movie from the digital photos). The image is "widened" and frankly I don't need any help in the WIDENING area. It seems to show correctly on my PB and on my computer. But on the Z10 it is wide. Pinch does not HOLD - bounces right back to wide.
There does not seem to be a setting to alter this behavior or appearance. If not connected to the tv, the DISPLAY/hdmi setting is grayed out.
I just created a new video. Since the phone was going downstairs, I copied the mp4 video to the phone. Plugged it into my tv but, once again, the images are distorted - too wide. So the screen is spread left to right and people are too wide. The effect is less noticeable on Scenery but you can see it for buildings and such. And, it is not just on my TV but it is also evident on the Z10, itself. So, the z10 appears to not be displaying the image or video WIDTH correctly.
I then copied the same video to my Playbook (another BB device) and the video is fine and NOT DISTORTED.
I am still on the original Verizon bb10.1.xxxxxxxxxxxx OS.
Any idea if there is a setting on the phone that I am missing.
**bleep**! I had not thought about opening the video in the Browser. You are RIGHT - the video proportions are correct when opened in the Browser. So this is a definite bug in the Video app's software or settings. Of course, one should not have to go into the browser to view videos because the app is BROKEN.
I wonder if Kalemsoft or other video apps performs correctly?
When I first posted the thread, I did not know if it was my desktop software's coding or resolution or .... So I burned off the video in format after format to no avail. I am somewhat surprised that no one else has raised this issue. Maybe I will take it to the official bb forum.

Check Accessibility, magnify mode may be ON.
