Reader: any way to increase the width?

I love Safari's Reader function...I just wish it took up a wider portion of the screen.   Currently, the text itself, not including the margins of the "paper", takes up less than 50% of the screen width.
I know the answer is NO, but thought I'd ask anyway...

This was a little time consuming but not too difficult. Unless somebody knows of a better way you might like to try the following.
Go to /Applications/Safari.app/Contents with 'Go To Folder' - on Finder Go menu
Put alias of Resources folder onto Desktop - highlight / cmd L and then drag
Close Contents folder
Double click alias and highlight Reader.html then hit cmd D to duplicate it as a backup
Open original Reader.html with Safari and 'View as source'
Select all (cmd A) and copy / paste into new TextEdit document
Quit from Safari
Copy and paste the following onto new lines just before </style>
/* The following modification increases width by 300px. */
#container { margin-left: -581px; width: 1162px }
#drop-shadow { width: 1100px }
#article { width: 1119px }
.article-fade { width: 1100px }
.page { width: 958px }
Save to Desktop as Reader.html
Option drag Desktop version of Reader.html onto alias to replace original
Start Safari and test
Good luck.

  • Is there any way to increase the font size in the Creative Cloud. Using a Lenovo Yoga 2 with 14" screen and care barely see the menus

    Is there any way to increase the font size in the Creative Cloud. Using a Lenovo Yoga 2 with 14" screen and care barely see the menus.

    In short, no. There is no fix yet. They only barely acknowledge there is a problem. The "fix" is to enable 200% UI scaling which makes everything comically huge and unusable. This is pretty much of a joke. A really, really EXPENSIVE joke.

  • Has any body tried increasing the width of editable dropdownbox

    Hi,
    Has any body tried increasing the width of editable dropdownbox.
    anyway i will be attempting it soon.
    If anybody has done it please guide me.
    Thanks.

    After overriding findByKey and not calling super if the passed Key is null, I found another error; BC is trying to update the PK of type DBSequence - JBO-27008 ReadOnlyAttrException. My "fix" was to override the setAttribute method in my ViewRowImpl and ignore any attempt to update the PK.
    Everything is working now and I get my JBO-27014 mandatory error messages.
    Just a side note: If I just change my mandatory field to another value, the setAttritbute method for the field gets hit just once. If I set it to blank, it gets hit 5 times for the same field and once for the PK field. The PK value being sent is always from the first row in my editable table.

  • My loudspeaker are very low (switched to max) any way to increase the volume. (IPad 1)?

    are very low (switched to max) any way to increase the volume. (IPad 1)?    [email protected] 

    Never mind. I see. Siri simply has it's own volume and you can adjust it while in Siri itself. It was set low by default.

  • Is there any way to increase the 5 computer limit for Home Sharing?

    We now have 9 computers all looking to access the same media purchased / stored on the same iTunes library?  Is there any way to increase beyond the 5 computer limit?
    Our home setup includes:
    2 iMacs
    2 MacBooks
    3 Mac minis
    2 Home Theatre PCs

    Can't offer any help, only tell you that I'm also wondering this as we now have 11 computers in our home.

  • I have 15,686 photos on iPhoto 11 and am now, when uploading latest photos, getting a message saying that my startup disk is full.  Is there any way of increasing the capacity of the start up disk?

    I have 15,686 photos on iPhoto 11.  As I've been uploading the latest photos in the last two days I've been getting a message stating that my start-up disk is nearly full.  I had no idea there was a limit.  Is there any way of increasing its capacity?  I have been shooting in Raw of late and I know it takes up a lot of space but I have heard of other people who have over 20,000 photos on their computers, so what is going on here??

    Two possibiilities here:
    1. Your start up disk is nearly full
    Or
    2. You have minor damage to the iPhoto Library and it's giving you a bogus message.
    But here's the thing: A full start up disk is a very serious issue and needs to be dealt with fast.
    So, how big is your Hard Disk? How much free space on it?

  • Is there any way to increase the contrast of the slider in the Table of Contents? It becomes very hard to see as you slide down a presentation. This has been asked before, a few years back. Has a solution been provided?

    I designed an interactive script using Captivate 7. It works like a branching scenario, and is currently in use by about 350 phone operators, soon to be over 750. Everybody is pretty happy about it, but I am getting complaints - especially form the older people - that the slider in the TOC is very hard to see, and I agree - as you scroll down the TOC entries, the slider becomes lighter and lighter in color. Is there any way to tweak it so that I can increase contrast, or recolor it in a darker tone? I know this was discussed a couple of years ago, but I don't know if the issue was addressed by Adobe, or if anyone has come up with a solution.

  • Is there any way to increase the volume beyond maximum volume?

    Is there any way I can increase the volume on the internal speaker on my MAC Pro Tower beyond what it is at maximum volume? 
    Thank you.

    Depending on what you're trying to do, there are a few solutions.
    If you're just using the machine normally & playing games, etc, then get some amplified speakers, or if you have a stereo system available at your work/home you can get an adapter cable that will let you run from the line out of the Mac Pro to the input jack on your stereo.
    If you're looking to so more serious audio production, then look for an audio interface.  Companies like M-Audio, MotU (Mark Of The Unicorn), Akai Pro, and Apogee (among others) make some great devices that connect via USB or Firewire, and will offer better sound out, which you can then connect either to an amplifier, studio monitors, or even PA gear.

  • Any way to increase the default Heap size for all Java VMs in Solaris 8

    Hello,
    I have a java product that deals with large databases under Solaris 8. It is a jar file, started by a cron job every night. Some nights it will fail because it runs out of Heap memory depending on the amount of records it has to deal with. I know that I could increase the java VM heap size with "java -jar -mx YY JARFILE" command but I have other java products that are showing the same behavior, and I would like to correct them all in one shot if possible.
    What I would like to do is find a system or configuration parameter that forces all Java VMs to use a larger MAX Heap size than the default 16M specified in the Man page for Java. Is there a way to accomplish that?
    TIA
    Maizo

    You could always download the source and modify it.

  • Is there any way to increase the amount of space for all day events?

    I have iCal on my ipad and my phone, and when I look at the daily view or weekly view, only 1 1/2 lines are shown. If I have a few events that are all day (I keep several calendars) then I have to scroll through them one at a time. And with my fingers, sometimes they go by too fast. Does anyone know how to increase the amount of space? I am using an iPad3, and an iPhone 5, both with ios 7.
    Thank you!

    With Mac OS X, there is no way for you to alter the amount of real memory a program is allocated. This is all done dynamically by the OS. OS X's virtual memory management is far better than 'ole OS 9's.
    What are saying about a memory leak? I take it that Safari is continually using more and more memory. How much memory is it usually taking up after a few hours? Perhaps you should just quit and restart Safari every few hours before it begins failing to respond.

  • Is there any way to increase the number of codecs supported in FCE?

    Hi all - does anyone know if there is a way to allow FCE to natively edit more codecs than are listed in the default sequence settings? I use FCPro and have been encouraging folks at my University to use FCE for intermediate editing. I just found out that many formats supported in FCP are not supported in FCE.
    Are there any plug-ins or anything we can buy to increase the types of files that FCE will support (in a sequence without rendering)?
    Follow up: if not, can anyone tell me the specifics of the 720p30 AIC format that FCE uses?
    Apple Intermediate Codec
    1280x720
    30fps progressive?
    bitrate?
    audio sampling rate?
    It seems odd to me that FCE has such a limited number of formats it supports natively. And why isn't ProRes 422 a part of FCE? I thought that was their big thing now - HD wihtout taking up all the real estate that AIC does.
    Thanks. I'm frustrated with both iMovie and FCE and wishing that Sony Vegas worked on Macs!

    Hi(Bonjour)!
    Well FCE is a stripped down version of FCP, for a fraction of the price. It was aimed to produce TV content in TV native resolution.
    In the past years, HDV and AVCDHD were added through AIC codec.
    For most of FCE users (from the beginner to intermediate video editors)those formats are adequate.
    To have access to native HDV or to Apple ProRes 422, you have to buy Final Cut Studio 2. All those codecs will be available in FCE export with quickitme conversion settings.

    Is there any way in Apex 4.0 to control how long the time out period is for when a user logs in?
    Thanks,

    Go to Application ->Shared Components -> Edit Security Attributes , take the "*Session Timeout*" section
    The Maximum Session Idle Time in Seconds field is what you are looking for.

  • Is there any way to increase the size of printing on each page? With most of the printing it is really tiny. printing

    I have been using I.E. with myyahoo.com as my homepage and I started having a page freeze for 30 seconds (approx.) 5 or 6 times a session. this is powered thru ATT.net. I thought that Firefox may correct this problem. When I installed Firefox I decided to use myyahoo.com as my home page. Yahoo/IE has a magnifying glass icon in the lower right corner that allows me to increase the print size. When I am on Foxfire the basis text size is 1/16th of an inch! How can I increase this size?????????????
    #2 is it possible to have a different home page for Firefox and leave myyahoo.com on IE ???????????

    1. The Firefox [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Page+Zoom 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, as with some other browsers.
    Try the Default FullZoom Level extension: <br />

  • Is there any way to increase the size of the window buttons (close, minimize, maximize)?

    I want to increase the size of the window buttons (close, minimize & maximize) because you have to navigate so precisely using the trackpad to use them...it'd be easier if the buttons were a little bigger. Thanks.

    Not possible at the present time.  You may make your wishes known to Apple here:
