Command+F search window too small How to make Wider?

I always need to make the window wider when I do a search because the name is truncated and I need to move "kind" to see the entire name.
How may I make the window default to be 3 inches wider every time I do a search?

You're telling me that You can open the find window, stretch it all the way across your screen, widen or narrow your columns and those window modifications will remain for all subsequent times you do a command+F shortcut?
Yes, it does keep that pref even through several restarts. It may be because I'm running 10.6.4 and don't have a 10.5.x disk handy to test. I thought it was the same in 10.5 but perhaps not.
(Notice I have widened the column considerably and it sticks.
AFA "Last Opened", notice the drop down menu in the screenshot... is this the feature you're talking about. It looks like Apple may have listened to your input and addressed it in 10.6

  • LoV - popup window too small

    Hi all,
    I'm using Oracle Forms Builder 10gR2. I have a LoV attached to a button but when the user open it - the popup window which appears is too small and customer has to enlarge it.
    Any ideas how to set it larger? Maybe in property palette or other option i have to define?
    Thanks in advance,
    Bahchevanov.

    You can set the width and the height of the LOV plus their x and y position in the property pallette at design time.
    cheers

  • Spotlight results window too small

    When I do a Spotlight search and then click on "Show All", it opens a small Finder window. Too small to read full file names. If I click on the green plus button in the upper left, it makes it taller, but not wider. So I have to drag the lower right corner to widen it, and then re-size the columns so I can see full file names.
    If I close the window, the next time I open a Spotlight search, it defaults to the same too-small size.
    This happens every time.
    Is there any way I can change this default and save the size and column spread I want?

    I just created a new account and the result was the same: the "Show All" results window opens up very small and has to be manually re-sized.
    Is there a system-wide preference file that can be changed for that, or am I stuck with it?

  • Preview problems - window too small, etc

    On Preview, I tinkered with the setting and now a new window opens in very small window and when I press zoom on a screenshot instead of the perfect resolution images like previously (65% zoom), it goes up to 75% and is blurry.
    How can I fix this?

    The text size is dependent on the text size set in IE7 when
    you open HS.
    If the preview text is too small, increase the text size in
    IE under
    VIEW-TEST SIZE.

  • Why are pop-up windows too small, text is being cut off. Problem is occurring with webkinz

    When I go to webkinz, the pop-up windows are too small to display all the information in the box. Text is being cut off. It works fine with Explorer. This has not always been a problem-- but is giving problems in the lat month. It occurs when you sign in, not noticeable on opening home page.

  • Illustrator CS6 - opens in window too small

    Anytime I double-click on an Illustrator file to open it, the Illustrator CS6 window opens up too small to view the file. It comes up with an error message that says "Can't open the illustration. There is not enough room for the window; increase document area and try again."
    If I then click on the box to expand the Illustrator window to full-size, then I can open the file. It's just frustrating that everytime I try to open an AI file by double-clicking on it, I get this error message.

    Like many I'm experiencing the same problem.  'Can't open the illustration.  There is not enough room for the window; increase document area and try again.'  Running Windows 7 - dual monitors although I don't believe that's the problem.  Tried the suggestion in preferences uncheck 'open documents as tabs' didn't work.  Tried Properties shortcut tab choose 'Maximized' didn't work.  This is what I find, when I right click to open a PDF in Illustrator - I can open the first  illustration (if it was closed using Exit), but I get this error on the second illustration I try to open in the same way.  If I close an illustration using the X than when I try to open the illustration the next time I get the error message.  If I chose Close or Ctrl W - the next time I open the application I get the error - HOWEVER, if I close the application by hitting Exit it will open properly the next time.  Even if the first illustration opens properly I still have a problem with the second one.  Can anyone help as this is a pain.  Been using CS6 for sometime but this just started happening ~ 3 months ago so it didn't start with the upgrade. 

  • ITunes Windows too small

    Just a comment. This does not affect the operation of iTunes but I just wanted to point this out. Your panes such as the New Releases, Just For You, Exclusives and Staff Favorites are slightly too small. Since I can't adjust the font size, the names of the artists are always cut off on the bottom. Can you , in future revisions, make the panes adjustable or just make them bigger so the information is not cut off? Thanks, and if by chance there is something in my setup that is wrong please let me know?

    Hi, Jeff,
    Just FYI, the Discussions are pretty much just your fellow users. Apple employees rarely read these posts. If you want to make a suggestion to Apple about iTunes, the best way is through the iTunes feedback page

  • Photoshop CC icons and text are too small: how to adjust so they're readable? [was: Joanne]

    I have just downloaded Creative Cloud on a new computer.  The new photoshop icons and text are too small for me to see or work with.  I cannot seem to adjust this so its "useable"

    Hey Bob,
    Ive put feature requests for this in before and I know many others have as well. Is there any way to see if Adobe is actually working on this? I dont really consider this a feature request, it should be standard with the software. A feature request would be something like creative cloud libraries, not the ability to make font sizes and icons bigger.

  • The default print size on Pages is too small - how can I program it to be larger?

    The default type size in Pages is too small - can I permanently size is larger? Thank you.

    Hi Ellis,
    When you say the default font size, is this set by the template you use for a new document? If so, create your own. Open a blank template, set the font size, and Save as Template... with a new name.
    In Pages > Preferences > General > For new Documents > Use Template.
    Choose your template. When you open Pages, it will open that template.
    File > New will also open that template.
    The font of a document from someone else has been set by the author of that document. You will have to change it.
    Also, have a look at View > Zoom. Perhaps the font is not small, but your view of the page is small.
    Regards,
    Ian

  • Digital Signature Text is too big, how to make it take up less room?

If so, can someone please supply the steps?

    hi Axl....
    I've got tiger in ok, running fine - bought family pack and have done 3 installs without problem, so that's the good news ....
    I did a major reshuffle and toss-out of files before I installed - bought 80gb mobile external hard drive - and did install with 5+gb free, so after it had about 3gb free, then all of a sudden I went down to less than 1gb
    I've been in a hunt for more files to throw out (a nice find were the old ipod updaters that were eating 500mb) ....
    If I want to throw out most of the language files (for instance) ... where are they ? (I did search for danois and found nothing, so .... buried ?)
    any other suggestions for things to throw away .... I've pretty much eliminated 90% of all things classic, for instance ....
    and - do you have ideas for why space seems to disappear so fast .... I'm not doing anything special, but wham, 2gb flies away to ???
    thanks

  • I have a 22 inch monitor set at 150% but since I installed Firefox, the font is too small and the screen is too small. Cannot make font or screen larger. I can do Control++ each time I enter a page but don't want that to be my solution.

    In control panel/display, I had my display set at 150% and at 1680 X 1050 resolution. This filled my 22 inch screen with the page content. Now that I have installed Firefox, the font is too small and the content is centered in the screen leaving about3" per side of blank space. I want to fill the screen and make everything larger. Haven't found a way to do that. Firefox tells me in my control panel/display window that by setting my display at 150%, "some items may not fit in your screen if you choose this setting while your display is set to this resolution. It worked fine with Explorer.

    The Firefox Page Zoom feature does a domain by domain level of saving the users preferred zoom level settings, there is no default Page Zoom level setting in Firefox.
    Try the Default FullZoom Level extension: <br />
