Screen size keeps changing

sometimes when i am working in adobe cc suddenly my screen size changes and I cannot figure out why or how to change it back. Has this happened to anyone else?

That's suspiciously like 'Boiler Plate Text'.  Did you have to pay Station royalties? ;-)  Actually, it is rather better than the version Ramon wheels out.  I think I'll grab the link for my big page of ready forum responses. :-)
Possible reasons a window would change size
Ctrl or Alt Spacebar and left click drag (standard zoom feature)
or my best guess, he has Zoom with mouse wheel check in General preferences.  This operates completely by itself, (no other key needed) so would be very easy to make happen unintentionally.

  • Hi can some one please help my screen size has changed its self  and is now larger than the screen can someone please let me know if this is a bug? if so how do i fix this? or am i just a nonce? if so how do i resolve this thanks in advance.

    sorry Q is in the tittle having big issues with my screen so its hard to use

    Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Displays
    Apple menu -> System Preferences -> Universal Access
    are both places where screen size may change inadvertantly.  Use higher resolutions, but lower screen zoom.

  • Whenever i am using my laptop and my palms are on the base of the laptop and i am typing all of sudden... my screen size keeps resizing bigger or smaller

    i try to keep my thumb palms off the mouse pad when i am typing but every now and then my screen resizes larger or smaller until i take my left palm off the keyboard base its only when my left palm is resting on the base next to the touch pad. i type pretty fast so it gets annoying and yes it also jumps screens or reverts back to previous message and i have to choose ctrl z to undo and get back to my message i was typing... it also switches tabs on me as well... not sure why my palm being on the left of the keypad on the base should effect anything but it does after a while. and i have to stop what i am doing...and go to the firefox menu and change the screen size back down to 100% sometimes it goes up to 200-300 other times it goes down to 70-80% i find it annoying i i wish there was a way to turn off the screen resize in the setup panel. if its just left to be 100% i am happy with that... i don't need it to be bigger or smaller... there should be a way to LOCK it down... i understand that there are people out there with eye problems and needs to have the screen size increase using the + or - but there should be a lock so it just stays no matter what is happening on my keypad or touch pad or base of the pad... that screen size will not increase or decrease. unless i turn off the lock... perhaps this is something they can implement in the next version or do a quick update of the browser

  • Mail Window Size Keeps Changing

    I've had this erratic bug ever since upgrading to snow leopard:
    I generally keep mail open, and just have the window closed, and let DockStar do some work in terms of notifications.
    Problem is that my window size keeps on changing. When I click on the mail icon to open it up (I always resize to full screen), the mail program opens up in a very small window, probably about 500x600. Sometimes it opens in full screen as I want, other times it opens to this minimized view.
    It is very hard to exactly reproduce, but happens probably 1/4 to 1/5 of the time at least.
    The problem with this is that it also resizes the left panel so EVERY TIME I open it up, I have to resize both the window and the left bar panel.
    I found a complaint that sounded similar that had the user remove the preference file, then recreate it, but this hasn't solved the problem.
    Anyone else have this problem? Anyone know how to fix it?!?!

    Here's something I've noticed:
    1. When I uninstalled Dockstar, all problems went away. There's definitely something going on here.
    2. When I reinstalled Dockstar, I am now only having problems with Mail remembering that one of my mailboxes is set to "organize by thread." (I had this problem before in addition to the window resizing). However, the window resizing problem seems to be gone (for today, at least).
    Here's what's different:
    1. I installed GrowlMail after they updated to a 64bit preference pane. (Not sure how this would impact it, but who knows...)
    2. Last time, I just installed the newest copy of Dockstar over the old one. This time, I uninstalled the old one and reinstalled Dockstar cleanly.
    Do you feel like verifying if this is true for you too?

  • Dock size keeps changing?

    I always set dock size the smallest. But it keeps changing so that it's slightly bigger than the smallest. Why is it changing all by itself?

    I guess no one knows.

  • Mail Signature: image size keeps changing to fit window

    When adding a logo image to a signature in mail, the image is not remaining the same size, it changes in size semingly to fit the width of the window that the email happens to be in. Mostly the image is showing larger than the window itself. We are having this problem on imac (snow leopard) and brand new macbook pro (mountain lion). I have tried using PNG and JPEG files but both have the same problem. Older signatures (2 years old) show the image correctly keeping it the same size. Any advice muchly appreciated : )

    I worked it out in the end - I had 2 things too big in my image settings; the canvas size (which was 14cm long!) and he DPI (which was 300dpi) I have since changed to approx 8cm long and 100DPI and it now displays the logo in the signature without increasing the size of it to fit the size of the window. My only issue now is trying to get the image to still show in the reply thread, so that when you look down the email conversation you can see the logo in each of the previous email signatures. This one is stumping me!

  • Images jumble when screen size is changed

    when i preview the work (in dreamweaver) that i have done on
    my website the images and spacing move when I changed the size of
    my browser screen. it is almost as if the images and text are
    trying to align themselves with the size of the window screen. I do
    not want then to be moving around and was wondering if any one
    could help me try to fix this problem.
    Thanks so much

  • Cover flow window size keeps changing

    As you can see to the images below, iTunes suddenly started to changing my cover flow size every time I restart it.

    Before 2-3 days I never had this issue. How can I make my cover flow sixe remain the same every time I open iTunes?

    Here's something I've noticed:
    1. When I uninstalled Dockstar, all problems went away. There's definitely something going on here.
    2. When I reinstalled Dockstar, I am now only having problems with Mail remembering that one of my mailboxes is set to "organize by thread." (I had this problem before in addition to the window resizing). However, the window resizing problem seems to be gone (for today, at least).

  • Page size keeps changing between pages based on browser zoom

    I recently started designing a web page for a golf league.  I designed my main page (index.html) and have it laid out all nice and neat with 9 divs (outer, wrapper, logo, social media, topnav, banner, content, rightside, footer).  My main page has horizontal navigation links near the top of the page for 7 different pages (Home, Course, Events, History, Statistics, About, Contact).  I created 6 blank html files for the other 6 pages and then created and applied the template from my main (Home) page to the other 6 pages. 
    All the pages are laid out perfectly and everything seems fine.  However, when I view the web pages and use the zoom on my mouse (CTRL + Mousewheel), it only remembers the zoom level for the current page that I'm on.  NOTE: FYI, I'm viewing all of these pages offline, which I assume might be the problem.
    For example, if I'm on my main page and zoom in, then click the "Events" link, it switches to the Events page, but doesn't have the same zoom level.  These zoom levels also seem to be saved (to my browser, not the dreamweaver code), because when I close the browser and reopen it to the web page, it remembers the previous zoom settings.
    I just started building a web page a few days ago and don't have a published web page as I haven't selected a host yet, but plan to when I know how what exactly I need in terms of size.  All the web pages I've been viewing are on my hard drive.  Is that why the zoom is not consistent across all my pages?  To clarify, if I zoom all the way in on my home page, then click "Events", the Events page won't necessarily be zoomed all the way in, it will be at the same zoom level as the last time I viewed it.
    I just want to know if this issue will go away when I actually publish my page to the internet and view it on the web?  If not, I'd like to tackle the problem now before I publish it because this site has to be professional since we're holding a big charity event in the fall with a major and well known charity and celebrity.
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    You're not using frames or framesets are you?
    In which browsers are you testing your site?
    My experience in Firefox, Chrome & IE9 is that Ctrl++ (zoom) remains constant until I change it.

  • Why does the character size keep changing to extreme small on the home page?

    With the new Firefox downloaded the character type changes to extremely small print every time I go away from the home page. I then have to reset it to larger print. With old Firefox the print size remained as I set it all the time.

    You didn't restore the device as new before you began using it.  Do so now, and use your own Apple ID & password from now on.
    Go to Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content & Settings. 
    Then, in the Setup Assistant, use only your own information.

  • Lion icon sizes keep changing

    So ever since upgrading to Lion I have been having a weird issue with my file icons. Essentially, I have certain files in certain folders set to be certain sizes, and with Snow Leopard there were no issues. Now, however, the file icon sizes seem to change on their own. For example, I will resize 5 folders of files to be 24. When I come back to said folders, some of them will still be set to 24, while others will be set back to 128. This seems to happen at complete random, and I have noticed no pattern to their changing. Some files will stay the way I size them, some won't, some will for a while and then they will resize, etc.
    What is the deal with this?

    Hi,
    Did you mean you would like to use the same view for all folders besides folders in Documents?
    If so, you can open Folder option when you are at your Document folder, and under View tab, choose
    Apply to folders:

  • Why does cam size keep changing?

    I am not sure if this post should be here...each time I test my client app, the camera settings (h & w) are different.  Any idea why?  It's a Creative Ultra Webcam.  Ultimately I will be using a Canon XL2 but using the webby for testing.
    I close the test, and restart it, then the settings are good.

    It's possible, if so I assume I can turn that off in the app's software?  It sounds like this could be something related to the web
    cam and I wouldn't have this issue with the XL2...do you agree?

  • Apple monitor keeps changing background pattern

    I have been using an inexpensive 18in flat panel monitor as a second screen with my MacBook Pro. I borrowed a friends 20 Apple monitor and tried it instead of the 18in, but the background screen pattern keeps changing every 15 minutes or so. I have reset the preferences NOT to change a dozen times. Sometimes it will accept me setting it to Panther Aqua Blue, sometimes it will not, but it always soon changes the pattern to one of the Apple Plants pattern and then changes again every 15 minutes or so. The "change picture" option is not selected. This never happened with my old cheap monitor. Any suggestions?
    Thanks
    Henry

    delete the file homedirectory/library/preferences/com.apple.desktop.plist and log out/in. set your desktop background as you like it. it should behave normally now.
