Wasted Screen real estate for toolbars

Firefox 4.0b.11 -
How do I adjust the positioning of the toolbars. I currently have them at default view, in that I have the "titile bar" on the top, then the main menu bar underneath that, and then the URL bar that also has a few add-ons at the far end. Then below that is the bookmarks bar..
My problem is that I would like to put either the title bar next to the main menu bar.. not underneath it (or visa versa), as there is about 3/4" of blank space (you can actually see my pc desktop) between the title bar and URL bar... How can I reduce this wasted space??? TIA<

Yes that may free up some space, but it creates a new issue by making me have to take an additional steps to access the menu items... Alt Alt Alt...not satisfactory.
From my perspective and for ease of use I would prefer having the "options" of doing ALL the following:
(1) resize the address bar/nav window, (2) delete the Google window and then being able to (3) Move the menu to the same bar as the address bar/nav window. (4) arrange all items including the Home Button to a position on the nav bar which is most comfortable for my use
If this is possible and someone can tell me how to do it, I will kiss the ground you walk on...

Online Services - waste of screen real estate

Does anyone know if it is possible (and how to) hide the Online Services pane that is now on the right hand side of Reader? It would have been nice if Adobe had made it just another collapsible/expandible pane added to the left side like Thumbnails, Attachments, etc. Frustrated becaue it just takes up screen real estate.

Well that was totally obviously . Thanks.

5800 Screen Real estate optimizations

The 5800 phone wastes a lot of screen real estate especially in Landscape mode (can be optimized further in Portrait mode too). Is Nokia planning for any User Experience enhancements?
Are there any 3rd party themes that uses the screen space efficiently?

Something you can do is to use Snaptu and Opera mini as shortcuts on your homescreen this at least gives instant access to a large number of 'apps'/web pages at a single tap !
Also if you check some other web sites, some people modify there phones, but it is not recommended as it would invalidate your phone, and shouldn't be discussed on this forum !!
If I have helped at all, a click on the White Star is always appreciated :

E71 - Theme and screen real estate on Standby-Page

While the screen of the E71 is not massive, it is my impression that the built in themes (and the ones I have seen) waste a lot of screen real estate. Specifically I mean the area on the Standby-Page under the clock. Its empty. It can't be configured and I have not seen an app for it.
Can someone shed light into this?

so while you can set the monitor to 17" resolution (1920x1080) it has to simulate it on a 2880x900 screen and has to blur and reinterpolate elements to make it work
they've really messed it up for anyone wanting true HD resolution for professional reasons.
Indeed. Everything except 2880x1800, which is unavailable without SwitchResX, and 1440x900, which comfortably fits one pixel of the image into a four pixel square of the Retina Display, must be simulated or scaled. However, while the scaling is real, the 17" "simulation" looks as good, to my eye at least, as my wife's MBP 17". Going smaller will test one's eyes probably as much as Apple's scaling algorithms so the tradeoff for greater screen real-estate may turn out not to be as bad as we'd think. All I need is a MBP Retina Display and SwitchResX to find out...

Screen Real Estate not being used

Hi
Dont know if this is software or hardware question - I just got a new bigger monitor for my Powermac. Display resolution is now 1600x1200.
Problem is whenever I put a new item onto the desktop, it stacks on top of another item thats already there (the one in the bottom right corner), even though I have over half of the desktop space empty!
Not a huge huge deal but just thnking it must be a simple fix!?

Screen real-estate on the 15" MBP Retina display

The 15" MacBook Pro Retina Display has a remarkable 2880x1800 pixel resolution, compared to the 27" LED display's 2560x1440. Normally, screen real-estate is defined as how much stuff (windows, menu bar items, bookmark lists, etc) you can fit on the screen, with a larger (that is, more pixels) screen being able to show more stuff using its native resolution.
With the MBP's Retina display, the pixels are so small that using its native resolution in the same way as with the 27" monitor should result in, say, really small menu bar items, etc. As a result, the default monitor setting involves scaling, so that something which might normally take up one pixel might get four or eight devoted to it, making it larger and easier to see. Its monitor control panel allows changing that relationship so that everything could be made to appear even larger, resulting in less screen real-estate, or smaller, resulting in more screen real-estate; i.e., lots more stuff can fit on the screen.
My question is whether, at the smallest setting offered, the screen real-estate is the equivalent of, say, a 32" monitor which also has 2880x1800 pixel resolution but is spread over a much smaller physical area, or is the Retina's display still scaled to some smaller equivalent resolution because straight 1 to 1 would simply be too small to be practical? If that's the case, what does the effective resolution work out to be at the smallest setting?
I'm aware that's not a simple question because, for example, I understand that an HD Movie could be displayed pixel for pixel even if everything else outside that window is scaled. Moreover, the use of vector graphics complicates the matter further. But for things like menu lists and word processing documents, can the MBP's Retina display be set to what we understand to be 1 to 1?

15" v 17" screen real estate

has anyone used for a extended period, a 15" and 17" hd mbp. I have a 17" and for numerous reasons am probably downgrading to a 15" unless i get very big reasons not to. any one have any thoughts on the topic?

If you are still considering the 17" hi-res (which I assume you mean by 'hd'), you'll want to try and see one in person first. 1920X1200 is _a lot_ of desktop real estate, but conversely, the display is only 17" - meaning the pixels are small, and the resulting small text elements of the UI are difficult for some people to read.
I have the 17" standard res, and prefer the additional area over the 15". I don't find the 17" to be more difficult to carry than the 15" - IMHO, neither is really all that portable (compared to something like my wife's 12" G4 PB, for example).

You added a horrible waste of real estate above my tabs telling me what web page I'm on. I want it back.

The bar is now an ugly 70s green and serves no greater purpose than helping these unworthy mouthbreathers remember what tlc show they were watching. I have no interest in wasting even minutes of my life undoing the terribad change you made to firefox. If I wanted chrome, I'd switch. Fire this person, his or her ideas are worth begging for change and I'd revel at the opportunity to kick his or her teeth down an alley and steal its wallet.
I want my firefox/min/max/close on the same line on my tabs. Stop imagining you can make this better, you can't. I've always respected firefox for getting the hell out of my way and lately you have been failing miserably. What are you trying to do open the door for competition?

You can look at the Classic Theme Restorer extension to restore some functionality that was lost with the arrival of the Australis style in Firefox 29.
*Classic Theme Restorer: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/classicthemerestorer/
You can check the settings of the CTR extension via its Options/Preferences button on the "Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions" page.

How to maximize screen real-estate in Gnome3

Upgraded to Gnome 3 yesterday, only to find that my cherished panels are gone, and the title bar of windows are super bulky.
Could someone educate me about how to make use of the black panel on the top or completely hide it?
I read somewhere on the gnome official site that they have the plan to merge the titlebar and the top panel. Is this in testing now?
Thanks a lot!

to get some app indicators up on the top panel instead of the auto-hide bottom panel that you can see when you mouse over bottom-right of your screen or when you press super key or open activities. read my comments on this page to make it work with current version as of today gnome.

Maximize MBP- ALS, screen real-estate...

Hey there,
i've been trying to figure out a couple tricks for my new toy. i would like to see if i can run a couple things that i've seen within you tube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySLSos33QLc
the cube-spin mainly
also interested what other people think about parallel or boot camp.
also the slapbook features. i've heard that you can do something with waving your hand over the ALS as well, located in the speakers.

The "cube spin" is VirtueDesktops, usually on

But the site seems down at the moment ... (can upload or send the installer it's only 2.6MB)
SlapBook Pro uses the motion sensor not the light sensor.

Profit center derviation for Real Estate

Hi Experts,
How do i achieve this scenerio in Profit Center u201CBALANCEu201D in required to be derivated in RERAPP and RERAOP posting for Real estate for VAT posting. The process which it follows is mentioned below, can any body suggest me how can get this.
Profit center of VAT postings:
When posting from RE transactions (RERAPP or RERAOP), VAT is not posted on the BALANCE profit center but
- On the building profit center in case one time posting (RERAOP) or periodic posting (RERAPP) from a contract which does not have the DUMMY profit center in the organizational assignment.
- On the DUMMY profit center in case of periodic posting (RERAPP) from contract with DUMMY profit center in the organizational assignment.
There's an FI substitution which assigns the BALANCE profit center for postings on balance sheet accounts, but for some reason this is not working for postings from the RE module.
There are VAT posting for RE, which are suppose to be assigned to the profit center BALANCE.
Thanks,
CHK

Hi,
1) I am sure that there is no seperate transaction code to view the profit center document. Either you need to view accounting documents in FB03 and go into the PCA document or you can go into the line item report of KE5Z, and double click the line item it takes you to the document.
2) The system is built in such a way that the secondary postsing to another object goes as statistical postings. The primary posting goes into cost object as real values which allows us to allocate from one object to another object. This allocation also goes into the profit center accounting as statistical as
per assignment of profit center to the cost objects.
Trust this helps much!
Cheers!

Are 24" iMac Screens Too Big for regular tasks?

I'll be playing a lot of games and watching a lot of movies on my new iMac (reason I want 24") and I'll probably become more productive. But, does it get annoying or do you feel you have too much screen real estate when you do things like browse the web on a 24" iMac? I've browsed the web on a screen probably around 20"-22" at school and it seems pretty annoying to browse the web on it. I'd probably get used to the extra screen space, though. What're your opinions? Thanks!

No offense, but all I can think is that the only way it'd be too big is if you a beginner who only every has a single page / window of anything open.
A few loose thoughts:
Once used to a big screen, you'll be very reluctant to return to a small one. Trust me. I was forced to move back from a 19" CRT to a 15" LCD at one point. Ugh. Ugh Ugh!
The screen is wide enough that you have to rotate your head to see it all if you're at typing distance (i.e. able to just touch the screen with an extended arm). If you're like me, working (long periods of time) with your head at an angle will cause problems; I developed a persistent shoulder muscle issue from this many years ago (in the days of the "dumb" terminals!) So if you're working on them all day, this may be something to watch out for--? In particular, note that the centre of the main typing portion of the keyboard is not the middle of the whole keyboard, but off to the left.
Wide, large, screens are excellent if you need to display things side-by-side, e.g. a webpage or PDF document and a word processor if you're researching material.
Of course, its also the "right" layout for DVDs too! Its not all work...

Can someone make iBooks have the Option to view 2 pages in landscape mode so it can use up all the pixel real estate?

Can someone make iBooks have the Option to view 2 pages in landscape mode so it can use up all the pixel real estate?
Apple usually does this for OSX and its great when compared to windows where it doesnt use up all the real estate for viewing applications like websites and pdf files but when it comes to iBooks, it feels like there is no apple touch to it and is limited.
If steve jobs were still alive, i bet there wouldnt be this problem >.>
Please consider this as a real problem for people out there who would like to see 2 pages in landscape mode with pdf files and not just epub files.
Thanks!

Penguin, do you always insult people on here or was I just a special case?
If you read the statement carefully, which you obviously did not! I was speculating, and I did not say anything for certain about knowing or not knowing ...
I'm happy for the reply to the post and helpful link you posted to where I can leave some feedback for my post on an Apple monitored site but i rather you not reply if your gonna leave a snyde remark with every helpful comment.
Don't do it again. and Thanks for the help.
