Despite checking on the Error Description on the website it still hasn't changed things. I still can't see the bottom of the screen or the right hand side. When I went to change a colour background (just in the hope that that would help) I couldn't see the bottom of the screen so couldn't even

I can mimise the screen by grabbing hold of the corners or the side panels but the ratio remains the same - what is inside is too big for the size of the screen. The text size looks fine, it seems to be the boxes. Have you perhaps changed any of the 'Display Properties'? Right click on the

Thank you Wendy and Cathy. Yes I did turn the computer off so have covered that area. Yes I did do an uninstall but I didn't check for any left over data. I backed up my data on to DVD then went to uninstall but didn't check that everything had gone. Wendy - I will do as you say and see what

June, I may have been able to recreate your problem -let's see if I can help now... I need to know exactly what you are seeing. There are two sizing mechanisms within Legacy. There is an outer box and an inner box. Each has a blue band across the top. The outer box is the Legacy box and it

Hi June, If you uninstalled but didn't delete the files left in the Legacy program folder (not the folders in it but the files) then you didn't delete the .usr files and it is probably one of those that caused the problem. You didn't do a full reinstall with Legacy recreating the defaults for

This is probably way off base, but just in case. Is it possible that you have the program maximized, but the open family file minimized? Claire - Original Message - From: June Date: Saturday, September 8, 2007 2:35 am Subject: Re: [LegacyUG] Can't see all the screen

Dawn, for two files open, go to Split View. It is a button and/or an option under View. Once in there you can change one of the duplicate views for a second file. Cheers, Mitch Legacy User Group guidelines: http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com/Etiquette.asp Archived messages:
