Cathy, 

Interesting. However, as I wrote: 

" I never had problems with Legacy 8 for the few months use before upgrading to 
version 9" 

Nor have I experienced this resizing problem until the past week. Strange. 
Whatever is the cause, just hope the problem disappears and suddenly as it 
appeared.

Denise and Dave, 

whatever the problem is, it's not a Legacy 9 problem as I have a friend still 
using Legacy 8 and this has been driving her nuts for ages and nothing I've 
been able to suggest has helped. 

I'm currently using a baby 2 in 1 computer/tablet as my main computer (laptop) 
has a monitor hardware problem. 
I'm getting this difficulty resizing sometimes on this. I've found that it 
resizes better if there is nothing under it but otherwise I'm still looking.

Thanks Dave. I was preparing to write about this same problem when 
your note hit the list. 

Sherry, thank toos. However, the solution you mention (deleting the 
legacy2.usr file) has limited relief only. 

I deleted the file three times yesterday afternoon alone. (I am still 
‘cleaning u p’ after a massive GEDCOM import, currently working with 
the location list.) I’ve check the graphic card drivers of this 
laptop. (Up to date and okay there.) I only have the problem with 
Legacy 9’s main window. The other windows (for example, the 
Individual’s Information window), dialogs, messages, and Help have no 
problems resizing. After deleting the .usr file I can open and size 
the main Legacy 9 window once only. After that first sizing, any 
changes to the window acts like a ‘rubber band’, snapping back the 
window to the first sizing position and not allowing changes. 

This problem is really frustrating. I never had problems with Legacy 8 
for the few months use before upgrading to version 9 (the reason I 
migrated to Legacy). Do you know whether this resizing of the main 
Legacy 9 window is a ‘known’ and reported problem?

Hi Dave, 

With Legacy closed, go to the Documents\Legacy Family 
Tree\_AppData\usr folder and delete the Legacy2.usr file. It will be 
recreated when you reopen Legacy and that should reset the size and 
placement of the windows.

Can anyone tell me how to maintain the size of my Legacy window 
when it opens. I resize it all the time since the latest release, 
but it always shrinks between uses. It would be much better if it 
would retain the window size of it's last use.
