Setting window size in Dreamweaver... Help!?

I am working in Dreamweaver CS3. I am trying to set my index
page window size, as well as the sizes of linked pop-up windows.
If I recall correctly, there used to be spot in page
properties where you could set the size of the page. This is not
here in CS3. Is there a way to do this still?
Also, for the pop-up windows... when I attempt to add a
behavior to spec size for this, I lose my current rollover states
in all my images.
This is driving me crazy! Any words of advice would be very
helpful. Thank you.

Be aware that it's a bad practice to mess with someone's
preferred browser
width settings. Most people would think it's even rude since
you make a
mess, and then don't clean it up.

Main window size for HTML Help

Hello again
I have looked at the archives and despite thinking I had seen
this particular issue covered before, I could not find anything. I
generate a HTML Help File with RoboHelp for Word x5.0.1 and would
like to set the default window size as at the moment my Help File
opens in a rather small window. Also if a user maximises the
window, closes the Help File and re-opens it, it still opens in the
small windows, i.e. the size settings were not save upon closing
the file.
Can anybody help? I reckon there must be some place (I
noticed the existence of the Edit > Windows menu but it only
seems to apply to WinHelp) I can set this up.
Thank you.
Regards,

In Project Manager, double click Windows and then the window
you use. There should be fields for setting the size. If not, check
that HTML is your primary output and then create a new window, then
you should see the fields.

Customize window size for HTML Help?

My .CHM file opens up in a ridiculously tiny window, and I
can't seem to change that from within Robohelp. I saw some
information on Rick Steve's site about customizing window sizes for
Webhelp and Flashhelp. I'm hoping there's a similar technique
available for HTML help.
Thanks!

Setting window size

Is there any way to set what size windows will open in an application? I can do it in terminal but when I open a file in another app, like text edit, the window size is the same and I have to resize it, even when I close the window or file and re open it.

This is entirely determined by the application. Some applications will remember the size of the window when you save a document, others will not. TextEdit should remember the size of windows when you save, but will open at what it considers the default size and position when opening other files or creating new ones. TextEdit allows you to set the default window size in its preferences, in terms of 'x' characters wide and 'y' lines tall.

Setting page size in Dreamweaver

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to set the page size. I would like to avoid annoying scroll bars (horizontal and vertical) appearing.
Here's an example :
http://www.mihaiedrisch.com/pages/index.htm
Thank you very much for your help.

Gosh! Your question in my mind is quite vague and I think that you first need to think about what you want.
One suggestion would be to try a few of the layouts that are available to you as default pages in Dreamweaver and see how those pages are contained (or not) There are a number of permutations for a page layout including fixed width, elastic and liquid (I get elastic and liquid mixed up). I use DW inCS4 and there are a heap of possible page layouts available. They are different to templates in DW. I don't know what is available in other versions.
I think that scroll bars are avoided partly, by not fixing width/height on elements that contain content that is bigger than that element. For instance if you fix a height to a <div> that is 200px and you put text in there that will go to 400px then your visitor will need a scroll bar to view it. If you don't set the height and accept that the <div> can expand with the content then no scroll bar is neccessary. There are other things that you do but I think that's the nub of it. I always think of the WWW as a land of compromise. There are so many variables but at some stage the designer has to make firm decisions about what to go for. This includes thinking about your potential audience. What size monitor you think they might have, what browser they use and to some extent how computer savvy they might be.
When you layout a page using CSS you have a range of ways to set sizes. This includes px values, em, point, % and there might be others!
I'm already tying myself up in knots trying to explain this stuff!
I'd suggest you do a bit more research and possibly say a bit more about what you would like to achieve. I didn't really get the link you posted. Is that your site or an example of a site you would like to emulate? That page by the way, on my 26" monitor doesn't look so good - but that might be about the different ways we see the world.
There, that should kick off the discussion. We can wait for an expert now to point out whether I'm misleading you!
Have fun
Martin

Updating Window Size. Please help

Hi. I have a problem that I am encountering and was wondering if anyone might know of how to solve it... I have a class called CenteredFrame that extends JFrame, and other classes extends CenteredFrame. I want to be able change the size of the windows to accomodate font changes and only have scrollpane when needed (this is when the window is at its maximum size). Because each class extending CenteredFrame may have its own layouts and sizes, I returned a panel for JContentPane and placed that inside of the scrollpane. One problem I am having upon testing one class extending CenteredFrame is that when apply button is pressed for font changes, refreshFrame is called but the window does not resize properly until the apply button is clicked a second time. Does anyone have an idea how to fix this? A second problem is that some of the classes extending CenteredFrame does not appear properly, buttons may be out of place even though it looked fine before scrollpane was implemented. All ideas would be helpful. Thanks.
Here is the code
public class CenteredFrame extends JFrame implements WindowListener {
private JPanel mainPanel = new JPanel();
private JScrollPane centeredFrameScrollPane;
* Constructor
public CenteredFrame() {
super();
getContentPane().setLayout(new BorderLayout());
centeredFrameScrollPane = new JScrollPane(mainPanel);
super.getContentPane().add(centeredFrameScrollPane);
//mainPanel.setLayout(new GridLayout());
setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE);
addWindowListener(this);
* Used as a local getContentPane method in order to allow for
* scollpane
public Container getContentPane() {
return mainPanel;
* This is used for resizing the windows if font or component sizes
* changes
public void refreshFrame() {
centeredFrameScrollPane.getViewport().setExtentSize
(centeredFrameScrollPane.getViewport().getViewSize());
pack();

I have not actualy tested it but how about invalidating and then packing the CenteredFrame's content pane before calling setExtentSize. If the content pane has not had its layout updated how does getViewSize know how big the content pane wants to be with the new fonts?
As you code stands the pack is probably updating the layout of the content pane and then the second time you press "Apply" the getViewSize returns the updated information and everything works.

How to control/set window size of applications?

When I press "command-shift-A" my application folder opens on the desktop. However, it always opens in a very small size requiring me to enlarge the window to see the entire folder. How can I set a default size of the entire screen when this window opens? thank you.

Open the folder and resize it to what you want. Now close it.
It should open to that size. If it doesn't, you've got some problems which I'll have to search around cuz I can't remember how to fix them.

GTK: Setting window size?

I'm programming a simple C app, and I am trying to get the function gtk_window_set_size() to work, this is what I have:
gtk_window_set_size((GtkWindow*)main_win, 240,250);
When i compile I get this error:
undefined reference to `gtk_window_set_size'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** Error 1
Is gtk_window_set_size() the right command to be using?

How do you compile it? Post the command line. It looks like you forgot to link to the gtk library.
With a makefile, but it is linking the gtk2.0 libs
VERSION = 0.1
CC = gcc
INSTALL=install

Aagh - Please help- Swing Window Size

Dear Guys,
Please help a newbie. I am totally at my wits end.
I have been looking unsuccessfully (maybe I'm using the wrong search terms) for a way to preset the size of a window before placing any components in the frame.
I am using a toolkit to get the dimensions of the current screen resolution and then I want to set the window to occupy the whole screen.
All I have been so far able to do is to set the size of the window after the pack() command. Unfortunately this makes all the buttons re-size in to what I believe are ugly square bulky buttons.
Is there a way to set window size before adding any components whatsoever?
Someone please reply soon!! Thanks

yo can also set the preferred size for the window - this.setPreferredSize(P);it takes a paramter P of type Dimesion.
This can later be returned through: this.getPreferredSize();which returns a type dimesion.
This can be used as a paramter:
ie this.setSize(this.getPreferredSize());hope this helps a little, if you want a really nice tool for finding out about possible methods, and also a really nice environment to code in; get Eclipse (http://www.eclipse.org/)

Is it possible to pre-set firefox window size?

under windows, one can add a short java script to the line that opens firefox to pre-set window size.

Once you set the size of the window in Firefox it should open that size. No need for scripts. Issues with Firefox should be directed to that vendor.

Hi Piyush,
Check what Anzy has to say in [here|https://forums.sdn.sap.com/click.jspa?searchID=18635339&messageID=3289078]:
"You have to go to specific view , which will be embedded in the pop up window.In the view go to ROOTUIELEMENTCONTAINER and set the width and height.This way you can restrict the size of the pop up window."
This is [another approach|https://forums.sdn.sap.com/click.jspa?searchID=18635339&messageID=5836334] suggested by Abhimanyu Lagishetty for dynamically setting the size of your window:
"Pass the URL like this to the create_external_window

Set window property maximize

hi everybody
i create a form
and set window size maximize i.e.
set_window_property(MDI,window_state,maximize)
it show window maximize in screen area(800,600)
but when i set screen resulation(1024,768)
then it show at halp screen(as not fit in screen)
is any solution that in (1024,786) resulation it show
in all screen
with thanx

yes. you are using the right code. It should work. If it doesn't, it means that somewhere in your application the mdi-window size is set differently.
you can verify this by calling show_alert right after your code:
set_window_property( forms_mdi_window, window_state, maximize );
set_alert_property( '<alert_name>', alert_message_text, 'window-state is now: ' || get_window_property( forms_mdi_window, window_state ) );
l_button := show_alert( '<alert_name>' );
Good Luck!
