Setting the minimize/maximize size of Firefox

Hi,
Not really sure where to start, so I figured i'd start here. What i'm trying to do is the following: I want Firefox to shrink/grow to a particular size whenever I press the minimize and maximize buttons. Can this actually be done inside of Firefox? If not does anyone know where I might look to find something like this? I am using Firefox from a centos machine.
Thanks in advance!

Maybe look at this extension instead:
*Firesizer: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/firesizer/

I can open Firefox, but then can't click on anything, not even the minimize/maximize buttons.

I can get Firefox to open and sometimes even browse properly for a few moments, but then I can't click on anything. Or, more accurately, I will click but then nothing happens. I can't even exit out of Firefox, because when I click on the minimize/maximize buttons or the red x, nothing happens. I then have to exit using ctrl/alt/delete, but the task handler even then claims that Firefox is running properly. I ctrl/alt/delete my way out anyway.
I've done everything I can think of. I've checked for updates, run CCleaner, defragged, run disk cleanup, and checked for malware. This persists in happening, but only in Firefox, not in IE.
I should mention I'm on a Dell laptop.

Oh thank you for posting on how to enter safe browsing! I had tried to disable add-ons, but couldn't make anything click to do so. So frustrating!
Anyway, after putting on the safe browsing, it worked *immediately*, so clearly the add-ons were the issue! I deleted a bunch I don't use anyway, and it's been working fine for hours.
Thank you!!

Why do the minimize, maximize, & close buttons in the top right corner disappear (turn to a black void) unless FF is maximized?

I am running Windows 7 on my new laptop. When I bought it back in August, I installed Firefox version 5 (I think) Now that I have updated to version 6, the minimize, maximize, & close buttons in the top right corner disappear when the window is not maximized. It becomes a black space where the buttons should be.

Hi Kossa,
You can also check if the issue occurs in
Clean Boot. If the issue disappears in the Clean Boot environment, you can continue to narrow down which entry is causing the issue.
Besides, uninstall it and re-download
a fresh copy of FireFox to check the result. If the issue still exists, create a new user account to see if it occurs.
If the issue persists, you can contact Mozilla Support directly and use Internet Explorer (IE) during the time.

How do I make the minimize/maximize/close buttons smaller?

I want to make the minimize - maximize - close/exit buttons on the right smaller. What's the css code to do this?

Solved it.
In Windows 7:
Right click desktop >
Go to Personalize >
Click WIndow Color (Custom) >
Click Advanced Appearance Settings >
Find Caption Buttons and change the size to your liking!
I like it at size 18, as it doesn't take up as much space.

How do I change the default paper size in Firefox if Printer Properties does nothing?

I print on different including a receipt printer with roll paper.
I had to reset Firefox yesterday because of a bug, and then changed the Printer Properties to be able to print again in the right format on the receipt paper. But now everything I print from Firefox (even when I change the paper size to Letter on the Printer properties for the regular printer) is in the receipt paper format (long and narrow.) When I do Print Preview, I can see that the paper looks like the roll paper, even if I'm trying to print on letter size.
I tried resetting both printers with about:config, I tried changing in the printer properties for both printers and nothing works.
Is there a way to change the default paper size in Firefox?

Hello,
My understanding is that Firefox uses the global printer settings. I am not familiar with the Windows 8 interface, but can you change the printer settings in its Devices and Printers and see if it changes the default for Firefox as well?

How to set the default maximum size for java's heap?

Hi!
Im trying to set the default max size for the java heap - but not from the command line.
I would like to set it higher as default on my computer.. how can I do that?
thanks!

>
...You may increase the memory heap only when you're launching a new JVM.>Much like IWantToBeBig does.
OTOH, it this is an app. with a GUI, it is easier to launch it using webstart, and request extra memory in the JNLP descriptor (the webstart launch file).

Setting the file system size for the emulator

Hi,
I am trying to set the file system size of the emulator so I can test what happens when the system is full and I try to write to the file system. I am using WTK 2.5.1 and I went into preferences -> storage and set Storage size to 10KB. But when I run the emulator and check the available size of the root directories using:
try {
         Enumeration roots = FileSystemRegistry.listRoots();
         while (roots.hasMoreElements()) {
            String dir = (String) roots.nextElement();
            FileConnection fc = (FileConnection) Connector.open( "file:///" + dir );
            System.out.println( "Available Size on " + dir + " : "+ fc.availableSize());
            fc.close();
      } catch ( IOException ex ) {
         ex.printStackTrace();
}I get the remaining size of my pc's hard drive, not what is remaining from the 10KB I set.
Can you tell me the correct way to do this? I don't want to fill up my pc's hard drive in order to test this!!

Has anyone got an answer to this?

Do you know if it's possible on an iPad to set the image quality/size or do we just have the one size - the photos I've taken work out at approx 8 x 6cm @300ppi - not that big!

Do you know if it's possible on an iPad to set the image quality/size or do we just have the one size - the photos I've taken, work out at approx 8 x 6cm @300ppi - not that big!

8cm * (1 in/2.54cm) * 300 dpi = 944 pixels (should be 1280 if this is the back camera)
6cm * (1in/2.54cm) * 300 dpi = 708 pixels (should be 720 if this is the back camera)
The back camera on iPad 2 is 1280x720 = 0.92Mp. No way to increase that.

Is it possible to disable the minimize, maximize and close on a Frame?

Is it possible to disable the minimize, maximize and close buttons on a Frame?
Is it possible to make invisible, minimize, maximize and close buttons of the frame?
What methods would I use to do so?
Thank You

The minimize, maximize and close buttons are defined as the windows decoration. To disable the windows decoration,frame.setUndecorated(true);The setUndecorated() method can only be called while the frame is not displayable.
Then you can redesign the look and feel of the rootpane and call
frame.getRootPane().setWindowDecorationStyle(JRootPane.FRAME);

How do I set the Launch window size (from launch from an LMS) in Captivate 5.5?

When my project launches from the LMS, the lauch window is smaller that the actual project size and requires the user to resize the window to see the whole project. My LMS administrator tells me that the launch window size is not controlled by the LMS so I am trying to figure out how I can set this to match the project dimensions.

The size of the browser window CAN be controlled by the LMS, but some LMSs are hopeless in this area and don't provide the settings to do so.
Moodle for example allows you to specify that the course content will open in a new window each time an item in the LMS TOC is clicked and what the height and width of that window will be. However, all versions of SumTotal before the latest one did not give you this option (and that despite the exhorbitant price difference between these two products.)
So your LMS admin might be correct in that HIS particular LMS cannot control the size of the launch window, but that's not because no LMS can do this.

How can I set the default home page in Firefox 4 for all users that login to a PC on a Win 7 PC?

I work at a community college in upstate NY.
We use Firefox as the default browser at our institution and we have always set the default homepage to be our homepage for all users that login to the PC. We had a procedure to to that that worked with Windows XP and FF 3 or earlier
We would do the following:
1. go to: c:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Mozilla\FireFox\Profiles\<profile_name>\prefs.js
2. Add the line: user_pref (“browser.startup.homepage”,”http://www.genesee.edu”);
3. Copy the Folder
C:\Documents & Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Mozilla
To
C:\Documents & Settings\Default User\Application Data\Mozilla
4. Restart the computer
We're going to Win 7 and Firefox 4 and things seem to be different in terms of files and file structure. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?
Thanks in advance.

Making customisation from the default profile is generally considered poor practice and quite often doesn't work out as planned. (If you're interested in some more information on this, [http://mockbox.net/windows-7/227-customise-windows-7-default-profile.html see here] see here)
This article should help you with developing and deploying your customised Firefox 4 installation (without touching the Windows 7 default user profile):

How do I set the default view size when I open a word.doc from mail

I use the mail program all day long and open MS Word docs and the size is default of 100% but the actually view of the screen make it look like a font of 7 or 8
I have a difficult time even viewing the document until I blow it up to 150%. It's not because I'm blind I have excellent vision..
