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.

  • Photoshop CS4 layers palette too wide problem!

    http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/6828/swatchesld2.jpg
    The Photoshop CS4 layers palette is too wide and distorts the layout of the default color swatches palette when docked on the same column. And I don't want to have to put the color swatches palette anywhere else but the same column. Can the layers palette be fixed so that it can be as narrow as the other palettes, so it won't cause a conflict with the swatches layout?

    As for the rescalability of panels I think this is more of a Windows issue, but even on mac these are nowhere near as well designed as they were.
    Panel and UI design issues are now unfortunately more complex than just to do with Photoshop. The whole Creative Suite is now unified to some extent in the way it handles panels. Part of these problems stem from the fact that Indesign and Illustrator's concerns are quite different to those of Photoshop. Partly because the designers of these two applications have introduced a great swaithe of additional panels, which now need to be accomodated. Hence the panel buttons, and poorly docking panels.
    The design of The Creative Suite interface now seems much more influenced by Flash Web design, and Windows OS. Unfortunately with flashing buttons, icons, and distracting transparency whenever you move anything, Photoshop appears on the surface much more complex than it needs to. This surface complexity will lead to further misguided accusations of "bloat".
    Photoshop CS and CS2 in my humble opinion, had much more "solid" and well designed panel (or palette) interfaces. Although here and there there have been one or two useful additions to the overall UI, including more readily accessible workspaces, tiling, and obvious clickable icons for people who can't deal with keyboard shortcuts.

  • 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.

    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.<br />
    See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting&#58; 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)<br />

  • Photoshop Elements UI font too small on high-resolution display

    Hi,
    I have recently purchased a Dell XPS15 laptop with a QHD+ (3200x1800) display. The PC is running Windows 8.1. I have also purchased Photoshop Elements 12 to run on it.
    With the display at the native resolution, it is necessary to have the "Change the size of all items" option in the display settings of Windows 8.1 set to "Larger", in order for the native Windows fonts and UI elements to be at a reasonable size. The laptop came with this option enabled by default.
    However, disappointingly the UI font size in Photoshop Elements is way too small when the display is at the native resolution. The application is basically unusable.
    I have tried setting the "Use system font" option in the General preferences, but this doesn't seem to help.
    The only way I can get the Photoshop Elements UI font to a reasonable size, is by dropping the screen resolution (to say 1920x1080).
    This seems like a terrible waste of a beautiful screen, particularly when my main reason for using the PC is for editing photos, and my photo management and editing software is preventing me exploiting the full resolution of the display.
    I'd appreciate any help or suggestions.
    Thanks.

    Unfortunately there is no option in PSE to vhange the UI fonts (other than switching to System Font' in preferences. So traditionally changing the Windows display font size has been the only workaround, and even that can cause problems with individual menus disappearing and being replaced with a hard to spot  >> drop-down menu.
    If you have a dual-display system you could have the menus on the lower resolution screen with images on the hi-res.

  • 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?

  • 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 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.

  • Installed Photoshop Elements 13. Opened program.  FYI, I work w/3 screens.  Appears in center screen, too wide and cannot minimize it.  Line across top reads eLive, Quick, Guided, Expert.  Only eLive works.  Gray screen on rest.

    I have installed Elements 13.  The screen stretches too wide on the screen and I can't see the edges at all to minimize or exit.  Across the top I read eLive, Quick, Guided and Expert.  Only eLive comes up with anything at all.  If I click on the others, I just get a gray screen.  I am running Windows 8.1 x64.  Thanks.

    Hi,
    I'm from germany so no 'best buy' but I think I will lock around sleeve/bag for a different product with same measures. Any tip?
    The clear plastic case is not what I want. I would like to use the player without such protections. I just want a sleeve to protect the player while its in my jacket/pants.
    Btw, i have bought this version: Creative Zen (maybe european version?). I also doesn't seem to have your mentioned sleeve. I also couldn't find it on the website.
    Anyway, thank you,
    Chris

  • Clipboard export failed because the image is too wide to save as a PICT

    Am I the only one who keeps getting this message in a new window,
    "Clipboard export failed because the image is too wide to save as a PICT"
    while working in Photoshop?
    I know little about a PICT file, except that it's some kind of file.
    Seems to pop up out of nowhere after I've been doing some copy/pasting.
    The really annoying part: it never shows up while I'm still working in PS,
    it's only after I click onto a folder or start working in another application.
    THEN the message won't let me do anything with the folder or application,
    but instead returns me to the PS screen for a few more seconds, then fades out.
    It's only after the fade-out that I can click on a folder or use
    another application.
    I have plenty of RAM (50%) and backup drive space assigned to PS, and
    again, this does not happen while still in a PS screen. Using Cache Level 6.

    While I haven't seen that particular message, I have had the "clipboard is too large to export" message. What you need to do is go to the Photoshop preferences and tell it to NOT export the clipboard. You should be able to find it the General section of preferences, just UNcheck the box in front of "Export Clipboard"--of course, if you copy something in Photoshop that you want to paste into another program, you'll have to re-check it. But bear in mind the limits of Clipboard.

  • 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

    Open the document,

    Drag the margins to the position you wish (the actual margin width sould display as you are doing this).

  • DVI plug too wide

    So.  I had a splitter DVI to VGA/DVI.  I had one end into my monitor in one room(DVI) and the other(VGA) through the wall to the back of my HDTV in the other room.  Problem, obviously was, if both were connected to the splitter, you could see the computer screen, but it wouldn't come up on the TV.  So, went to a local reseller of used electronics, bought a DVI to dual VGA splitter(did this to make it easier for the family not having to constantly plug/unplug cords) and went to connect it.  The DVI plug is too wide to fit in the plug in the back of my mini.  Is there a different wider type plug than the standard DVI that I'm not aware of?  I'm going to try and get back to the store and exchange it, but I'm just confused, I thought the outer diameter of the plugs were standard and it was the pins that were different.  Am I missing something somewhere?  Early 2006 Mac Mini

    Can you post a pic of both here using the little Camera icon to upload them in a reply here?

  • HT3142 Display size is too large on yahoo mail

    My display size is too large on yahoo mail page only (page I need and use most). How do I correct it, please?
    Changing the display selections from system preferences is not working.

    There may be a control within the application you are running Yahoo.
    Which browser are you using online to access Yahoo?
    In the View menu bar of the open application, there may be a choice
    to change the size of the display content in the window itself, check.
    Some of these use a keyboard command, should the setting go to
    Full Screen, you'd need to know the default or escape combination
    of keys to restore the application's window to a standard size. This
    kind of inside-application setting is not reflected System Wide.
    Since I don't know the browser, (as I have five, each is different)
    I can't recommend a keyboard combination to re-size the open
    application's view or window setting. They can be non-standard.
    But that likely is where you'd have to change it back to normal.
    PS: Snow Leopard is Mac OS X 10.6.8.
    (Tiger is OS X 10.4.x)
    Good luck!

  • 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.
