Window Size

[C. Roy Blye]

Hello,

When I open a new window, it may open at full size or it may open at a
reduced size. Is there a way to make windows open consistently the same
size?

Slightly different problem: If I adjust a reduced window to a certain size,
it does not always remember that size the next time I reduce a window. Is
there a way to make windows reduce to the same size consistently?

Thanks,
Roy

You may set the window to a size, the next time you open the application
it opens at the window size you set. If you set maximize or "full
screen" it is not a "window" anymore. Set/stretch the window to the size
you want, do not use "Maximize" or "full screen" and you won't have that
resizing problem.

Bob,

I'm a little unclear as to your explanation. Here's what happens: If I
reduce a window (from full screen), then adjust its size, then go back to
full screen, then reduce the window again, the window size may no longer be
the size I adjusted it to.

You used the term "Set/Stretch". Is there a way to adjust a reduced window
size by a method other than dragging the sides or lower right corner?

Also, is there an answer to my first problem, in which a newly opened window
doesn't always open to the same size?

Thanks,
Roy

The toggling from windowed to fullscreen and back to window should
return to the original window size. If this is not happening, then is
there one application where this is not working or all applications? You
Say "MAY" which would tend to indicate that it is only a particular
application, which will likely be due to the way it was programmed.

Stretch/Set means dragging the sides of the window to whatever window
size you want all the way out till it covers the whole desktop. It is
still a window, many people want to "just click the button on the
titlebar" to achieve a window covering the desktop.
