That did not help and the result was the same as in Workspace 1 when there are 4 workspaces. I then tried a "right click" on the icon in the bottom panel and got the menu. (I just guessed that, I never knew it was there before -- I never needed to know). That gave me all the necessary controls. I was then able to use the "Maximize" to get the whole window in view, and I allowed it to "move" and got it set up in a workable manner. It does appear that the smallest size for the window is 600 lines, so that it just barely fits inside this size of screen. I have thought about this before. There will be more use of small screens such as this 1024 x 600, and even smaller ones like the 800 x 480 of the Nokia N800 and N810 (which are being called "Mobile Internet Devices" or "MIDs" lately). For a very long term plan you might want to try something like this: I think you could break down the current displays to smaller sizes contained in "tiles". A tile might be about 400 pixels wide by 300 pixels (lines) high. You could then arrange 1 tile inside a tabbed window for small screens. For larger screens you could have an option for 2 or 3 tiles high, or 2 or 3 tiles wide per tabbed screen. Then you could select which tiles go in which screen, something like icons. I have a pretty good idea how much programming I just described, so I would not expect to see it done by 11.1, or 11.2, or . . . ;-) Anyway, it was just a though. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
