I just figured out how to reproduce this on Windows - it seems like VMware was confusing matters, but I can see the problem now. I'll update the ticket. BTW; whilst it won't affect the runtime titlebar etc. are you aware you can use Ctrl+ (depending on your keyboard, you may need to hit Shift as well to get Ctrl+ rather than Ctrl=) and Ctrl- to zoom the display? That will allow you to get it to a usable size. -- Dave Page Blog: http://pgsnake.blogspot.com Twitter: @pgsnake EnterpriseDB UK: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgadmin-support mailing list (pgadmin-support@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgadmin-support
