Getting Images to display on entire screen

Hi, I need help with a problem that I'm sure there must be a easy solution to, but I've not been able to figure it out.
When I open a word document or Photoshop file, I'm used to having it open to cover the entire screen on my video monitor on my PC. On my powerbook, it only opens a portion of the size....even when I show it under the "FULL SCREEN" sizing button on view. Can someone tell me how I get documents to display on the full width of my monitor.
I know that there must be a simple setting or fix for this...but I'm struggling to find it. Thanks in advance.

There's no easy solution. It's been said that Apple wants the green button to fit the window to the contents, under the reasoning that on today's larger and wider screens, filling the screen with one document is a waste of space. But that rationalization is faulty, because some screens are still lower resolution where filling the screen would still make sense, and also because the green button is implemented extremely inconsistently, even in Apple's own apps. There are a few applications, like Apple Mail, where clicking the green button actually does fill the screen. But you can never predict which ones will do that.
Photoshop is easier because it has its own full screen mode on the toolbar, or press F.

    Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears - ignore the red slider.

  • How to set a background image to fill the entire screen on any device in a spark mobile application

    Hi,
    I started developing a mobile application with Flex.
    I'm trying to set a background image to fill the whole screen. I've been stucked at this point for days now. I tried everything and no solution seems to work for me.
    I'm using a TabbedViewNavigatorApplication and i need to set some background images on views.
    I need my image to fill the entire screen on any device. i don't need to mantain image aspect ratio,  just need it to be fullscreen. This seemed to work when setting a custom skin on the TabbedViewNavigatorApplication, however this blocked all my views for some reason and all components contained in view became invisible.
    Can you please tell me how can i achieve this?
    Kind regards,
    Dan

    Basically you need a larger image which can accommodate any device. The trick is to show only what each device can display, so therefore some clipping will occur based on device. Have something centered and towards margins have a  gradient or just plane colors that way the stuff in the middle will be visible on every device while nobody will care if you are clipping from the color fill.

  • How I can get Safari to fill my entire screen?

    I don't know why, but all of a sudden Safari only fills 1/2 of my screen. I am assuming I did something wrong, but can't figure out what it is. Any suggestions on how I can get Safari to fill my entire screen?
    Thank you.

    You may have clicked the green button, but in any case just drag it to the size you want using the bottom right-hand corner of the window.

  • TS4085 the image does not fill entire screen of iPad, therefore not the entire TV screen.  Why?

    When I try to mirror a video from my iPad to TV using Apple TV, the video does not fill entire screen of iPad nor the entire screen of my TV,  Is there a way to strech the image to fit screen(s)?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    There are two factors in play here. Firstly the iPad screen is 4:3, your TV is 16:9, so when mirroring the mirrored iPad screen is never going to fill the TV screen. If on top of that, whatever you are watching doesn't fill the iPad screen then that too will be reflected in what is seen in the mirrored image.
    You cannot stretch this using the Apple TV or iPad controls, but your TV may have a setting you can use. Generally speaking though this will distort the image and you would likely be best leaving it alone.

  • When opening files in Photoshop CC, it only displays partial image. How do I get it to display the entire image on open?

    I understand that people want to check the quality of the image when they open it, but I hate that I'm looking at the top left of every image when I open it. It's not maximizing the size of the image based on my screen size. I hate having to hit apple-0 every time I open a file. Where's the preference to change this??!

  • How do I get images to display in messages?

    All I get is broken image icon where image should be and as it used to be. Example: My dilbert comic strip email used to show the daily strip. Now I have to click link to go to web page.

    Is this ''all ''senders, or just some?
    If the sender has changed their system to, say, rely on scripts then you may no longer see some content.
    It's a long time since I last looked at Dilbert. I'll check it here.

  • Can't get Images to display in PDF

    Hello,
    I'm new to InDesign so sorry if this a noob mistake. I'm trying to export my InDesign file to PDF but whenever I do, the images I've embedded into InDesign don't show up in the PDF. Instead I get a Placeholder Image. I am exporting as an Interactive PDF with the default settings using InDesign CS6.
    Does anybody have any idea as to why this could be happening?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    I don't know if it's related to the problem you are experiencing, but there is no need to embed the images once they are placed. If you leave them linked, your filesize will be smaller and Indesign more stable. Try placing one of the images again and leaving it alone, then export to PDF again.

  • Tecra M11-11L: BIOS udpate to get power on display on both screens?

    Is there a BIOS update that allows me to select "BOTH" as an option for the Power On Display?
    Currently it only lists Auto-Select and Internal.
    Auto-Select only outputs to the external screen if one is connected.
    I need to set the default as output on both screens.
    Older Toshibas do this. In fact, every other Toshiba I've used has this feature.
    As a presentation/hire/conference laptop, this is an important feature.
    And yes, I've updated the BIOS to the latest version.
    Thanks
    Ben

    > Auto-Select only outputs to the external screen if one is connected.
    > I need to set the default as output on both screens.
    No, there is not such BIOS update which would add this option.

  • Images not displayed properly

    Hi,I am working on Agentry 5.4.0I have a list screen where for one of the columns I have a rule to display images ( I use checked and unchecked images ). Earlier the images were getting displayed properly on the ATE but  it is not working now and I did not make any changes to the image properties then.But after this, I tried couple of things with the image properties to make it work, like when I do not use any mask colour the image does not get displayed but when i use any maks colour the image gets displayed but its completely blacked out ( and thus for checked image, cannot see the check mark and its completely blacked out ).I face same issue with the login image as well. I added a new Image ( Logo ) to my App for the login Screen, but even this image does not appear on the login screen.
    I also tried deleting the Dev folder and re-publishing, but even this does not work.

    Try deleting the Application directory under your development server where the images reside and publish again.
      Completely clear your ATE and transmit again from scratch.
      Also, what mask color are you using?
      Try using a green hugh and not black or white for the mask.

    Hi Jason,Thank you for the reply.I already tried all the  things you have mentioned, but the same issue exits still.

    Jason Latko   01/03/2012 12:40
    Is it just the ATE, or do you have the same problems using the WIn32 or PPC clients?
    Jason Latko - Senior Product Developer at Syclo
    prashanthi_vangala   01/04/2012 06:21
    Hi Jason,Behaviour in ATE:I have changed the image now and tested with the new image . Now, its behaving strangely:When I do a sync after publishing or a reset of ATE; I see the new image properly displayed on the screen but when I leave the screen and come back to the same screen again, the new image is getting replaced by the old image ( atleast the old image is not displayed properly, it appears like a black square box..and because of the same issue I had with this image I switched to the new image ). Behaviour in Win32 Client:When I tested with the client, I see  the new image properly for the first time and when i leave the screen and come back the image disappears..This is the behaviour in client.
    Please suggest.
    -Prashanthi
    Jason Latko   01/09/2012 11:35
    Prashanthi,What did you use to create these images?
      They are simple bitmaps I assume?
      Try creating some very simple images using Microsoft Paint, then set a mask of green in Agentry.
      Your problem sounds familiar, but I can't find a matching bug in our database.
      Maybe someone else has experienced this?
      You could also try upgrading to a newer version of Agentry to see if the problem goes away.

    Hi Jason,
    Thank you for the reply.
    But strangely, from past few days I see that the image is working fine again.
    But kept this topic open because it was wierd, that the image is working correctly again without making any major change. What I did was to just write the rule again which calls the image ( though i did this before and did not work then but worked now ) and to observe the image behaviour for few days.But it seems like it is fine now.
    Thanks and Regards,Prashanthi

    The images are present in the following path,

    I am not thinking this is a Platform Beta 3 uptake issue. And I am suspecting an issue with integration of ilog with ADF. Any help in this regard would be helpful.
