[libreoffice-users] In Calc, Window sizing impairment
On Linux Mint 20.3 LO Spreadsheet does not allow me to adjust the screen partially. I can either do full screen or minimize completely. I have no clue what keys I might have accidentally touched. Still works fine in Writer, but no longer in Calc.

What happens when you maximise and then click on the Restore for the resizeable window. Does it not respond or disappear altogether. I had the latter once.

Re: [libreoffice-users] In Calc, Window sizing impairment
I have had Calc go to a tiny box in the upper left corner. I could drag it to the size I needed. I seem to recall that when it went that small, it hid behind other windows.

Re: [libreoffice-users] In Calc, Window sizing impairment
1. When it is on full screen and I click on the resize button (middle button), it is minimized. 2. At this point, when I click on the calc icon, I only have the option to maximize it, there is no "restore" option.

At this point, when I click on the calc icon, I only have the option to maximize it, there is no "restore" option. In Linux it is a handy habit to drag windows combined with the alt-key. So you might want to try the following in a maximized window state: * Move your mouse very roughly to somewhere around a corner. * Press and hold Alt-key * Start dragging with your right mouse button to a preferred position * Release your fingers from keyboard and mouse PS Alt + Left Mouse Button is "moving the window". -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
Re: [libreoffice-users] In Calc, Window sizing impairment
In cinnamon desktop or all of linux, there's some bug in linux or LibreOffice that the window size becomes zero pixels wide and zero pixels tall if the system or LibreOffice gets confused about what the non maximized window size should be. press Alt-spacebar to see a menu where this zero size window is being placed, then either choose "resize" or position the cursor on the narrow vertical line the height of the header/menu and resize it.

Re: [libreoffice-users] In Calc, Window sizing impairment
Thanks for that!!! That analysis immediately "felt right" and it worked. I was wondering all the time if it is a bug in cinnamon, or linux or LO... it makes sense now!!! And it worked!

Re: [libreoffice-users] In Calc, Window sizing impairment
It seems to happen far more frequently in Calc, but I have had windows in Writer do it too. I don't recall any non-LO app showing this behavior. I suspect something saves the window as one data type (floating point), then passes it unmodified to something that expects another data type (integer) and crash protection in cinnamon then zeroes out the value... or maybe it just accepts the incompatible data which is received as zero. I'm using a cinnamon variant of Ubuntu with a very low instance count. I didn't previously suspect this affected all cinnamon desktops, but it makes sense that it does.
