[Solved] NX Session Too Big

Once again I solved my own problem - all I had to do was go into the display settings inside GNOME, from within my NX session. Then I could change the display resolution and it would change it for my NX session but not my regular GNOME sessions where I'm physically present. I hope this helps someone.
I've been having this problem for a while, and have been looking for solutions all over the place, but I haven't found one, so I thought I'd ask here.
On both my work computer and my laptop I run Arch Linux. I am using the GNOME desktop environment. I have freenx installed on my work computer so I can work on it from elsewhere. However, I have a problem where the NX session is too high a resolution to fit on the screen. This is really annoying because windows appear off the edge of the screen and it is difficult to bring them all back into the field of view.
I have tried changing the resolution of the session in the NX client settings but that seems to make no difference.
Any suggestions?

  • Interface was too big, solved that. Now the tools don't fit in the box.

    Hey all!
    Like some others, I had a problem with the size of the interface. I fixed this by lowering my windows size to 124%. When I started illustrator I was very happy to see that (almost) everything had returned to it's original size.
    Now, however, the tools don't seem to have scaled wit the rest of the interface and they don't seem to fit in their box, the same goes for all the other screens. I added a photo to show you what I mean. This happens with every single screen in Illustrator (new file, swatches, type, etc). When using tools, they also show up way too big on my screen (the black cursor, for example, is huge)
    How do I solve this?

    I also got the new small Ipod Shuffle for my birthday. There is one set of compatable earphones available and they cost more than the Ipod shuffle, and still may not fit. An over the ear model is not available. An adapter was suppose to come out in mid-July but it is still not available. I would also like to use the Ipod Shuffle in my car and again, this is not possible. I'm very disappointed and hurt. My daughter was laid off and used what money she had to get me what she thought was a nice a present. She is profoundly deaf and doesn't understand music or Ipod's other than they are popular and she wanted to do something nice for her Mom. Very dissappointed an adapter is still not available.

  • A document page opens that is too big for the display and runs off the end of the monitor

    How do you fix a problem where document pages open that are too big for the display and runs off the end of the monitor? The borders are off the monitor so there is no window edge to grab and adjust.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and  Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

    Hi,
    When you have the browser open (Internet Explorer) then press the Alt key on the keyboard. It should show you the file options at the top..Then uncheck work offline and check..
    Note:
    If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem

  • "Adobe Photoshop Clip Image is Too Big To Be Exported" - Registry fix does nothing.

    Hello folks.
    I cannot paste any images out of Photoshop that are over 1200x900 pixels in size. I get the error message "Adobe Photoshop Clip Image is Too Big To Be Exported."
    I've tried the registry fix available on this forum, and nothing happens. I double click the file - ClipboardSizeLimit_OFF.reg - and get a message saying the data has been added to the registry. Then I copy and attempt to paste into, say, Paint or JASC Animation Shop and just get the "Adobe Photoshop Clip Image is Too Big To Be Exported" message again.
    What's going on?? Is the registry fix actually doing anything at all?
    Paul.

    I had been having this clipboard problem for a long time before I finally found this forum post, which clued me that there is a registry setting available to fix the problem. I found and downloaded a ClipboardSizeLimit_OFF.reg file and realized that just clicking on it would not solve my problem, because the file I downloaded was specific to a different version of Photoshop than the version that I am using. The file I downloaded adds the DWORD value MaxClipSize = 0 under the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Photoshop\7.0. Well, since I'm using version 6.0, I needed to add the value under the key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Photoshop\6.0. Bingo! I did not even need to restart Photoshop. The clipboard export of large images now works. You need to find the appropriate key in your registry and add the value manually, or change the .reg file to refer to the appropriate key for your version of Photoshop.

  • ITV Catchup TV picture too big

    We have two laptops – the first one is an HP and works OK in Firefox for all TV Channels
    The second one – an Advent Verona produces the following problem
    ITV and Catchup TV viewed in Firefox - the picture is about 4 times too big
    BBCi, 4OD and Demand 5 all OK in Firefox with this Advent
    ITV and Catchup TV - viewed in Opera - picture OK – size and speed OK
    So it seems to be the result of the – Advent laptop - plus Firefox - plus ITV and Catchup TV

    I will check out Photoshop Elements 6.0, but I have solved my problem. If, after Sharing a iPhoto 16:9 slideshow with iDVD, opening a new iDVD 16:9 file, creating a slide show, and under media/movies, drag the .mov file to the left, and be sure to select, "scale slide to safe TV area," the resulting disc will play on our 16:9 and show the entire contents of each image. The picture does not fill the TV screen, small black bars all around the picture, but at least all of the image shows. I can live with the black bars. One thing, maybe THE thing, I was doing wrong was I was making a movie in iDVD and not a slide show.
    Do you see much difference in the output of FotoMagico2 (FM) during playback on a TV as compared to iDVD? If so, how do you create your .dv files; 16:9 Widescreen, 720p, or 1080p? At the moment, FM cannot work from .mov files, and will not captures iPhoto image captions. This means you have to create a title for each image in FM. Also, unless there is a global way of doing it, you have to zoom each image down inside the dotted line box if you want the entire image to show on your TV. The image does fill the screen, however. I am still comparing.
    Thank you for all your help and support.

  • Scans are too big Can I re-size a scan?

    I scan a lot of contracts and I just bought my photosmart 7525 today.  I scanned a contract but it would not email to my account.  i'm thinking that it was too big for my email account.  The size was only 9.25 mb but it still seemed like a lot because the contract was only 24 pages of written word.  No photos!  Is there a way to re-size my scans?  If I scanned the same document from the office, it would only be about 1 mb.
    Thanks!

    Hello baseballrob3,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand you are looking to have the Photosmart 7525 scan an image / several pages of images and have them save in a smaller size.
    What is the Operating System installed on the computer you are scanning with, Windows or Mac?
    I was looking into the scanning options, (using similar software to this printer on Windows 8.1) and found a couple ways to lower the file size. If you do not need to scan in color, choose Black and white. Lowering the DPI / PPI will hugely impact the saved file size.
    Let me know if you are able to find those options within your scanning software, and if it was helpful.

  • IMovie still too big

    I thought I had solved my problem by splitting the movie in part 1 and part 2.
    I took the first part (after I cleared the rest of the movie) and tried to SHARE it with iDVD,
    But I still get the message that it is too long for a DVD.
    This first part is now only 1 hr 10 minutes.
    Can anyone give me more help, please.

    Project info choices are: Best Perf, High quality, Prof. qual. I picked Best Performance,
    Part 1 of my iMovie is 83 minutes and 4.59GB
    Using iMovie HD 6.0.3
    When I use SHARE I am still informed that project is too big when I attempt to burn it.
    When I close iMovie and go thru iDVD and try to bring it in then my iMovie is greyed out
    My iMovie has an icon with the black star inside - that is what I'm to use, right?
    I must be doing something wrong! Any more ideas?
    Thanks for all your help so far.
    Got to get this movie off my HD - it's taking up too much room! Only have 25GB open, could that be related to my problem?

  • Applicatio​n windows too big

    The screen size of the desk top is fine. Every application you open - IE - WORD - EXCEL etc... is too big on the screen. How do you make the information smaller in windows 7 ??

    Hello Sherri123,
    Check your screen resolution to ensure it's properly set. Right click on an open area on your desktop and select screen resolution. The lower the screen resolution (such as 640 x 480) the bigger the programs will appear. You want a higher resolution such as 1024 x 768 to make them appear properly.

  • I uploaded a photo onto my desk top and it was too big when I tried to change it I couldn't get into iPhoto it just wouldn't open

    I uploaded a photo to my desk top as my screen saver and it was too big, when I tried to get back into iPhoto I couldnt, it wouldn't open, I closed it and tried again and it still will not open, can you help me?

    Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS.  So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
    - What version of iPhoto.
    - What version of the Operating System.
    - Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
    - History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
    - Are there error messages?
    - What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
    - Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
    Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

  • Numbers window too big

    For some reason everything I open a new numbers document session the spreadsheet is far to big for my screen and I need to reduce its size.
    Do you know why it is going this or how I can stop it?

    Unfortunately you still aren't being clear if it is a view issue or a table size issue.
    As the reply posts say, if the table is too big for your needs make it smaller and go to File>>save as newe template. Go to preferences and select the new template as the default.
    If the table has the right number of columns and rows but your screen isnt big enough use Yvan' solution.
