Thanks Bill,

I played around with those hints for a while and then stopped when 
I got close enough to the display that I wanted. I probably should 
take a look at those again to see if that solves some of the issues
that have been reported. I never did get to the point where I could 
increase the size of the display space by dragging the window size,
but that does not mean that it is not possible.

Cheers, bob
