Save As Window more than full screen

P

Pam

The Save As window is larger that the size of the desktop.
I can't get the cursor into the lower right corner to
resize the window and the window doesn't move left to
right. Any ideas on getting this sized would be
appreciated.

Hi, Pam,

Even though you can't get the mouse to the right place, there is a way to
resize the dialog with the keyboard.

While the dialog is showing, press Alt+spacebar. This drops down the "system
menu" from the icon in the top left corner. Press the S key to choose Size
from that menu. The cursor changes to a four-way arrow. Tap the Up Arrow key
once to select the top border of the dialog, and then press and hold the
Down Arrow key until the top of the title bar comes into view. Now tap the
Left Arrow key to select the left border, and press and hold the Right Arrow
key so the left edge appears. Press the Enter key to return to normal, and
you can now use the mouse to finish resizing and moving the dialog.

This operation works with any resizable window or dialog, including the
program's main window.
