Layer dialog in 2009 is larger than screen?
« on: May 21, 2008, 10:46:55 AM »
I'm curious if anyone knows where I can reset the size of this thing?
I'm already at a max resolution of 1600x1200.

try anchoring it to one side and then set it to not allow docking . . . i think it will reset to a point where you can adjust it to suit

Tried that already, it anchors, it docks, but the edge extends off of the screen.
Pretty crazy, trying to see if the dialogs size is in the cui now.

you might try loading the default VGA drivers and then start CAD, all things should re-size

I like them to think that they are not simply rebooting.

Well I'm really looking for where it is able to be controlled in the CAD interface besides the GUI.
I'm beginning to think only the registry can truly handle it.

I was able to fix it using the lower corner with the GUI even though it was nowhere to be seen.
Resetting Windows preferences is a pain, usually just better off re-creating the users profile than trying to fix it 9 times out of 10 when bugs like this come up. Just consumes less time than chasing every possible nightmare. :kewl:

I saw that happen with the Properties palette a couple times...after somebody ran a registry cleaner. :pissed:

That is why is is ALWAYS suggested that a copy of the DEFAULT profile be exported, backed up, and copied to a SAFE location the very instant that cad is started.

Been there done that as well as the MEP & ACAD cui's.

What is a real pain in the arse is updating networked palettes.
