Hi Russ, I frequently "snap" various windows to one side, or to the top to maximise. I do this with Legacy, and my computer remembers what I set when it closes and opens as it was last left.
This sounds like a problem with your computer, rather than a Legacy problem. :-( But the main reason I wanted to reply, was to share this - did you know you can "snap" a window using the keyboard, instead of the mouse? I discovered it by accident a while ago, and now use it all the time, and you might find it useful when your window(s) aren't displaying as you want them to... Hold down the Windows button and press one of the arrow keys. The left arrow will send the window to the left half of the screen, the right arrow to the right, and the up arrow will maximise the window. This works in Windows 7, but I can't remember if it works in Vista or XP - I don't have either of those here to check with at the moment, and can't remember the results when I've tried it on other machines when I've had the opportunity. It's very quick and convenient. I use it in all sorts of situations, including to resize the "save as" window when saving a new file. Hope this helps. :-) Kind Regards, Wendy R G Strong-genes said the following on 13/04/2012 7:22 a.m.: > Sherry, I am not referring to the dual monitor application, I only have a > single monitor.
