Your thought of using the left-top corner icon is a good one- no right-clicking needed; just click on it to drop down a menu... Alternatively, double-clicking the menu bar switches between maximized and 'normal' window-size. If it's not maximized and you can see any edge you can start to resize it, then pull it by the title bar... eventually, you can get it to the desired size. If, however, none of the edges are visible- and the title bar isn't showing, they may have to change the screen resolution to something very large (if their monitor allows). -- ================================== - email: alan (at) zisman (dot) ca - website: http://www.zisman.ca (running on Mac OS X) --- Thunderbird 2.0.0.19 (Macintosh/20081209)* Origin: Fidonet Via Newsreader - http://www.easternstar.info (1:123/789.0) SEEN-BY: 10/1 3 14/250 34/999 53/558 120/228 123/500 128/2 140/1 222/2 226/0 SEEN-BY: 249/303 250/306 261/20 38 100 1381 1404 1406 1410 1418 266/1413 SEEN-BY: 280/1027 320/119 393/68 396/45 633/104 260 267 640/954 690/682 734 SEEN-BY: 712/0 313 848 800/432 801/161 189 2222/700 2320/100 105 200 303 SEEN-BY: 2905/0 @PATH: 123/789 500 261/38 633/260 712/848 633/267 |
