MS Office Forum / Word / Menus and Toolbars / February 2004Getting out of fullscreen mode
I went to full screan mode and everything was fine. Getting out of full screan mode, the writing area moved way to the right and when I maximize the window, the writeable area is not in the window. What is going on? Jim If you right click the Windows taskbar at the foot of the screen and select 'cascade windows' does it return?

Me too - I had a mail from the guy this morning, without the screen dump. I explained this in more detail, so we should have more info later.

Okay, I *really* thought I was missing something. :-) I suspect it's due to corruption in the Data key (Settings value) then. It stores the position of the window and such so that would be my first guess. SignaturePlease post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup.

It started just below the Zoom drop down so about 1/4 of the document window is visible. (It looks a little like the 'wonky' Tools/Options Edit/Track Changes bug) At first I thought it was a restored MDI document window moved to the right and the title bar hiding below the toolbar but the window border is not visible and the edge is sunken. It looks like the menu bar, which is docked to the left, is filling the space but you can not manually resize a docked menu bar so that isn't it. Strange!

After going to fullscreen mode and coming out of full screen mode the window has the menu bar on the left as I began with but the window is the color of the menu bar background. this happened once before and I don't remember how I fixed it. 73712 >-----Original Message----- >Hi Jim, [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > >. Hi Jim, See if going to View/Document Map corrects the problem. :-) SignaturePlease post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup.

Beth, View/Document Map did not help. I have the it has to do with the menu bar being vertical on the left side of the screen, but so far nothing. Another peculiar thing when opening Word, the window is wider thsa the terminal screen. Jim >-----Original Message----- >Hi Jim, [quoted text clipped - 42 lines] > >. |
