MS Office Forum / Word / Document Management / May 2008Lose the white space along left edge
I'm using Word 2000. When in Normal view, the left edge of text is about 1cm away from the left edge of the window. The paragraphs/ heading styles have no indentation (ruler confirms that the starting point is a 0"). In order to view more text while abutting more than one window, how can I get rid of this white space along the left edge? Thanks. Have you dragged the horizontal scroll bar button fully to the left?  SignatureSuzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA > I'm using Word 2000.

But even with the scroll bar moved a bit to the right doesn't move the left edge of visible text closer to the left edge of the window. The left-most text simply disappears "behind" the vertical strip of whitespace that runs along the left edge of the window. > Have you dragged the horizontal scroll bar button fully to the left? > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > > Thanks.

No, but with the ruler turned on, the white space along the left side is directly underneath the button that cycles throught the tab types. The white space stays there, however, when the ruler is turned off. > Do you have the Style Area displayed? > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > >> > Thanks. How much white space are we talking about? Oh, I see you say 1 cm. It is normal to have white space below the tab selector in Normal view (just the width of the tab selector area). This is the selection area that allows you to select lines, paragraphs, or the entire document by clicking with the mouse. The width of this area will depend on your screen size and resolution; on my screen it's about 5 mm. As long as the left margin indicator is flush against the tab selector, then everything is as it should be, and there is no way to change it. SignatureSuzanne S.
