Changing the size of dialog boxes

Hi
I like a big dialog box so that I can see an extensive list of folders on the left. Instead of changing the shape of it manually any time I save, export, open, place, etc, I would like it to remain a certain size.
I discovered that if I close all my windows, open a new file, (change my dialog box in the process), save and close, the size of the dialog box remains the same.
However I have not figured out a way to do this for export and place. So I still have a small box for those tasks.
Can anyone suggest a way to define the size of the boxes??
thanks
Pete

Hello,
You can control your VI window bound using something like I did as an example for you.

  • Magic Mouse changes the values in dialog boxes

    When working in Photoshop and saving files, I noticed that a sideways swipe on the Magic Mouse will change the values in dialog boxes. Unfortunately, it's a little too sensitive. When saving as JPEG and reaching for the keyboard to hit Return for OK, my hand will sometimes lightly brush against the mouse. This invariably has the effect of lowering the JPEG compression amount to zero and ruining the image, so I must turn this feature off or abandon this mouse. Is there a way to do so?

    The horizontal scroll is a pain in the a$$ IMO and many others to. The way to disable it is to type (copy/paste) into a Termainal window the following command line (this is one line, it's shows wrapped due to the forum display layout):
    defaults write com.apple.driver.AppleBluetoothMultitouch.mouse MouseHorizontalScroll -bool NO
    Turn your mouse off and back on and you will then have no more horizontal scrolling.
    To reenable the horizontal scroll change the No to YES in the command.
    There's a little GUI application that can do this for you if you feel uncomfortable using terminal.  It's called MagicMouse Scroll. You have to read the text there to dig out the download link so here's that download link for your convenience:

    You still have to turn your mouse off and back on to get the setting to take effect.

  • How I change the save image dialog box view from oldest to newest first as the default?

    My save image dialog box has the oldest file in the folder in the upper left position (using list). I want to change it to the newest file shown first. It used to be that way, but now it showing oldest first. I haven't found any guidance on defaults for this box. Thanks.

    Leave it to Apple.  When I first got the phone, that's the way they were configured.  Now that they've flipped around, there's now way to change it!

  • How to change the size of a box in the runtime

    I created a box in my scene, and want to change it's size in the runtime.
    Is there any method to do so?
    ps: I used "Box(float xdim, float ydim, float zdim, int primflags, Appearance ap)" to create the box .
    thank you guys!

    Dropping and re-creating the table is by far the best way (of course you need to unload the table's data to a flat file with ttBulkCp first and then reload it again afterwards).
    a second option is to drop the column and re-add it with the new size but you still need to preserve the data first and put it back afterwards and this is harder for a single column than for a whole table. Also, if you are using replication you should exercise care when using ALTER TABLE to ensure iall replicated copies of the table maintain the same physical structure.

  • Changing the size of dialog window

    Dear,
    My front panel (dialog window) includes a dynamic array (inside a tab control) which size can be changed.
    Would you please let me know how to control the dialog window with tab control in program code?

  • How do I change the size of a Spry Input Text field box?

    I created an email reply box, and then I created a reply message box. How do I change the size of each box independantly of each other? All I have is one set of Spry CSS rules!
    Oh, and the Working with the Validation Text Rule widget file in the Help Resource Center only covers changing the background color - Ugh!

    If I understand your question, you want to change the size of the input field that has spry validation?
    Spry has nothing to do with it, add a size to the field
    <input name="textfield1" type="text" id="textfield1" size="45" />
    <input name="textfield2" type="text" id="textfield2" size="25" />

  • On a MBP with Mavericks how do I get the Save As dialog box to open at the same size and place at which it was last closed and used to happen before Mavericks?

    Before I upgraded my MBP to Mavericks, the Save As dialog box would reopen at the same size and position as it was when last closed.  Now with Mavericks it always opens in the same position at a very small size.  Is there a way to make it reopen at the last place and size at which it was closed?

    I have resolved the issues presented without having to find and uninstall the Macromedia Flash Player 8.0 in order to get "Adobe Flash Player 10" playback of .swf files on my computer. When I begin this task, I expected to download an "Adobe Flash Player 10" as a player program download instead of the Internet Explorer and Firefox plugin that it appears to be.
    This is what I did and what I believe I have:
    1. I setup Internet Explorer 6 as my default browser and then used the following site to download Adobe Flash Player 10
    http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/
    2. As I had done before (and also suggested in another thread here), I went to Tools/Manage Add Ons and found Shockwave Flash Object, highlighted it, and clicked on Update Active X. Next, what I did not do before, I restarted the computer immediately after that.
    3. Next, I set Mozilla Firefox as my default browser and then used the above site to download Adobe Flash Player 10 again.
    4. With Firefox, the critical step included Firefox Tools/Options/Content with File Types (Configure how Firefox handles certain types of files) and the Manage Tab there. SWF Shockware Flash Object/Change Action/and dotting "use this plugin" - Shockwave Flash, followed by a computer restart got the job done.
    Now, if I want playback of a .swf file, I can
    a. Open With Internet Explorer (assumed with the Adobe Flash 10 "plugin")
    b. Open With Mozilla Firefox (assumed with the Adobe Flash 10 "plugin")
    c. Open With Macromedia Flash Player 8.0
    I am satisfied with those results for my use. Any additional comments on the player vs plugin aspect of the matter would be interesting and helpful.

  • In putting together a book I can move photos onto a page and enlarge the picture but is there a way to reduce the picture size? some cases I want a smaller picture and if I change the size of the picture box I only get a portion of the image. I wnt to red

    picture size...in putting together a book I can move photos onto a page and enlarge the picture but is there a way to reduce the picture size? some cases I want a smaller picture and if I change the size of the picture box I only get a portion of the image. I want to reduce the image to fit the size of the box.

    If you right click on the image on the page in the context menu select photo box alignment and then select one of scale to fit {centered, Left-aligned, Right-aligned}
    That should do what you are loking for.

  • I would like to use the windows explorer open dialog box instead of the adobe open dialog box. How can I change that?

    I would like to use the windows explorer open dialog box instead of the adobe open dialog box. How can I change that?

    The top screenshot is the Windows Open dialog box. All File > Open... commands in all Windows programs bring it up.   Try File > Open in Notepad for example.
    It belongs to Windows not Adobe. You cannot change this because there is no such thing as an Adobe Open dialog box.
    The bottom screenshot is Windows Explorer. It is Windows' OS File Browser, not an Open dialog.  It is not called up by Photoshop or any Windows program.
    You have to click on "My Computer" or a Folder icon to get to it. You can double-click a psd, jpeg or other image file in the Explorer window so that it opens in Photoshop.
    There is Adobe Bridge and Minibridge   Alt + Ctrl + O or File > Browse in Bridge

  • Changing the size of the bevel photo box in Aperture 3

    Does anyone know how I can change the size of the bevel photo box that comes with the Formal-Soft cover-medium theme. Aperture 3 is not allowing me to change the size. I would like to make it larger. I can not add a bevel bevel photo box. I have done the change with Aperture 1 before.
    Thanks

    See the post at http://photo.rwboyer.com/2010/03/15/aperture-3-book-theme-trick/ for tantalizing hint on how to make this work -- which I'm attempting right now.  (If the link gets removed, do an internet search for "aperture 3 book theme trick" (without the quotes) and you'll get it.  The "original article" referenced is essential reading -- at least the part on how to make a copy of a theme so one can play with it.  Note that Aperture has to be restarted if you create the theme copy while Aperture is running.  I've made the suggested change, but it's not taking effect. I'll experiment more and report back, but I thought others might like to know there is a possible solution.
