Dear tony, Solution for 1)
open OO writer. Maximize it. Then Click on same button to : "restore down" Drag it to left-top corner, change size by click & drag from right-bottom corner of Oowriter.(make it like horizontal rectangle so half desktop can be visible ) Open other application do same step to set it on right-top corner of screen. Solution for 2) Select "Default" option as shown in attached screen-shot. (Or u can use "Clear Formatting" option as shortcut ) Regards, * Ketan Patel * IT Deptt. -----Original Message----- From: Tony Carr [mailto:car...@gmail.com] Sent: Monday, September 27, 2010 6:40 AM To: open office Subject: [users] open-office writer improvements I'm using OpenOffice 3.2 and Windows 7 on an HP530 laptop. Two small irritations have bugged me for most of a decade - maybe there is a workaround? Or maybe it's all Bill Gates' fault? 1: When I reduce OO Writer to part-screen, by default it hogs almost the whole centre of the screen! Obviously a user makes it part-screen so he can view some other application at the same time - so why make that impossible? (At least in recent versions it remembers where I moved it to, even if later closures were from full-screen mode.) 2: When I click the Font-size drop-down tab, the menu only shows LARGER font sizes. So exactly half the time I have to laboriously scroll up to find the size I want. Why not have the menu put the current font-size in the centre? Then almost every desirable font-size would be immediately visible. OO Writer is still a GREAT program, though! Blows my mind that it's free.
