InDesign CS4 window fills the screen when opening

I just installed Adobe CS4 Design Premium version 6.0.3.  When I open a document using InDesign, the window almost fills the screen 30 "on my Apple HD Display.  I would like to set the window size so that it frames a document of 8.5 "x 11" portrait with only a bit of margin all around. "  When I do that, and you save the document, it always opens to the same, large window.  It would be much more effective that I could put the size of the window to the required dimensions so that it would open in this configuration and not in the large version.  I can't get there.  Any ideas?  Thanks for any help you can give.  I am running 10.5.7 on a Mac Pro (early 2008) with 2 GB of RAM and a lot of hard disk space.

Don't know how it will come around, but here's the Javascript (it works in CS3) - with my apologies to the author, whom I lost the name:

DESCRIPTION: Returns the size of the active window or use the window before setting the default size.

Check for WindowDefault.txt; If so use it to set the front window
Otherwise, use the front window to put after checking with the user.

myParts [(myParts.length-1)] = "WindowDefault" + app.version.slice (0.1) + ".txt";
myNewPath = myParts.join("/");

mySettingsFile = File (myNewPath);

Before you begin, check that there is a window on the front
Otherwise, offer the user the option to delete the current settings
If (app.windows.length< 1)="">
beep();
If (confirm ("no window is open; you want to delete the settings file? »)) {
User says Yes; check that there is

mySettingsFile.remove ();
}
}
} else {}

If (mySettingsFile.open ("r")) {}

savedBounds = mySettingsFile.read ();
mySettingsFile.close ();

myBounds = savedBounds.split(",");
for (i = 0; i
myBounds [i] = Number (myBounds [i]);
}
App.Windows [0]. Bounds = myBounds;
} else {}
beep();
If (confirm ("settings file is missing. To set default to use the current window before? »)) {
Said user: go at it.
new leader (mySettingsFile);
mySettingsFile.open ("w");
mySettingsFile.write(app.windows[0].bounds);
mySettingsFile.close ();
}
}
}

  • Force the Image to fill the screen when the user resizes the window

    I use flex and actionscript to create a site of photographer and I want the bottom to display an image that completely covers the bottom without distortion.  I tried just an image tag and characterized by the width and height to 100%, but the problem comes when the screen looks wider than the photo.  Thus, the height is reduced to 100% and the width is something less.  I would have rather it evolve according to what is most important, that is, if the window is too wide, the photo with a width of 100% on the scale and let the excess off the screen.  In this way, the photo is still cover the screen and there is no background color of distractrating showing.

    I was counting on the use of actionscript to indicate the width and height of the image so that I can compare it to the height and width of the window, but it seems that you can not get the dimensions of the photo.  I use application.width and application.height, but I need a way to compare it to the photo.  Also, is there an eventlistener that I should use to monitor when the user resizes the window or image resizing will be done automatically?

    Thanks for your comments,

  • How to fill the screen when encoding?

    I was coding a short video segment by using H.264 and trying to output to a custom size of 566 x 424.  Whenever I have coding the sequence at that size I get black bars at the top and bottom of the frame and still when I encode any other report size 3 x 4, I do not have.  Y at - it a screen adjustment 'fill' in the encoder in Premiere Pro that I can use?  Why don't I get bars upstairs and down on other 3 x 4 report parameters, and yet I do on this custom size?

    You can see the sample output here: http://www.Southridge.BC.ca/index.aspx

    In the Source of the export settings window tab, crop a few lines of the left and right of the image. It was probably around 6 to 12 pixels per side. Backwards, you can switch between the tabs Source and output to see the effect of the cream.

    Premiere Pro will scale to fit the dimensions of the output image without distorting; When it reaches a limit, it stops at the scale. These lines on the sides of culture will allow Agency until she correctly fills the wide framework.

  • Firefox loads, icon on the bar of tasks but when you click the slide of graphics off to the right, but does not fill the screen &amp; when you right-click again, falls back into the icon

    Firefox, Thunderbird and Quicken were active when I loadad & ran a slot machine game. When I left the game & click on icon to return to Firefox full screen, I could see the flash of the image to the right of my screen and disappear. When I clicked on the icon in the taskbar, the reverse happened - the image flashed from the right down to the icon. When I hover the mouse over the icon, the open screens appear with the red X to close, but the same thing happens when I click on this box. Two other programs that have been opened, while the game was active work correctly, only Firefox has been affected. I can't open the program to access one of the menu items that I can't get the image of the screen on the monitor. I did uninstall and reinstall a freshly downloaded copy, I had to use IE, as I am now) but with the same results when I run. I did chose to save my settings, so if something has changed here so maybe that's the problem.

    Hello

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • You can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.

    Thank you.

  • Why the illustator window fills the screen at the launch of the program?

    This isn't normal behavior for most of the programs on a Macintosh computer. I use several applications at the same time and use Keyboard Maestro to automation, so I would like to that window to stay put and be smaller than full-screen at the opening of the program. This is a common problem or there something wrong with my installation?

    You are right. I tried it in 2015 CC

    But it works very well in CS6, you can resize the application window, restart the application and it is resized.

    I don't know in what CC version that has changed in.

    It is therefore more a bug to a feature request report.

  • Why areas filled the void when opening in the Macs?

    I can create a form in Acrobat, fill in the fields, activate it for reader, put online for download, and they see very well on a PC in the browser. However, when opened in Mac or iPhone, the fields are empty. Something special I should tell customers to make it work on a Mac? The time now I don't know what application they use to view.

    I just did a quick test. I opened the file in Acrobat. Drive and preview on Mac. They are all showed their initially seen content. When I made a change to a field in the preview and saved the file, the contents of the field are not displayed when subsequently opened in Acrobat/Reader. This is a bug of well know preview. In short, overview corrupts the fields, the content is not visible. This can be partially corrected by exporting form data to a file and re-import, but does not cancel all the damage. It makes data visible, however. You can also run a script to actually do the same thing.

    You need to warn people, it's not not to use the preview to make changes. Instead, use Acrobat. Player can make changes, and then save the modified document if you apply the document with Acrobat usage rights: Advanced > extend features in Adobe Reader...

  • My window fills the entire page from left to right and covers my taskbar. I can size to the bottom of the window to remove it. Has just begun.

    I keep my taskbar on the right side. Suddenly, the FF browser window fills the screen from left to right and covers, and hide my taskbar. This just started today. How can I get my taskbar visible again. Explain it very simply to please.

    A quick way to switch between a larger and a resizable window is to double-click on the title bar (the area above the tabs). Which does nothing?

    If the tabs go all the way to the top of the screen and fill all the space, then there is not place to double-click. Then you'll need to use either the "middle button" between lower and close buttons, or Alt + bar spacing and r for restore.

  • Why all my open windows minimize when I move another window on the screen?

    Hello

    What happens is that when I move a window on the screen all my other windows minimize, as this half the window sometimes disappears or appears another window on top.

    I am currently running Windows 7, it is aware of the updates. I ran virus checks. Also, I found a way to stop it from happening by unchecking the "use Visual styles on windows and buttons" in the performance options, however my PC should run with this setting is enabled, and it has been for more than a year.

    If it helps, here are the basis for my PC specifications:

    i5 - 2500 k

    8 GB RAM

    1 TB SSHD (this is where the BONE is)

    HARD DRIVE 500 GB

    160 GB HDDGTX 770

    OCZ ZS 650W 80 + Bronze

    All the drivers are up to date.

    Any help is appreciated

    Thanks in advance,

  • Program BACK in Guest XP on Windows 7 does not fill the screen

    Hello world

    I have a quite unique due to many circumstances situation and several months of research to get to a decent workaround.

    I have a tool written in Basic for MS-DOS. I need to use this tool and the interface with the files created in Windows 7. VMWare Player with no very good support for sharing files between DOS with Windows 7 clients, I have opted for a guest of Windows XP on my computer Windows 7 host and who go through the program. In this way, I can share files between XP and 7 and run the program correctly in the XP VM. Note that this program doesn't work at all on Windows 7 due to some problems graphics driver, hence the need for such a solution.

    When I run the XP VM, it is able to match the resolution as expected. However, when I open the program BACK, he is not full screen as it does on a native XP machine or even a VM XP in VMWare Fusion on a Mac. Is there a way to force it to fill the screen? The graphics full screen are vital for visibility - I can barely see anything on the screen of dinky little 640 x 480 without blowing up to its maximum potential.

    I tried several other options, including a Windows VM (I'm under Windows 7 Enterprise) and DOSBOX. Windows VM has the same problem resolution in addition to requiring the integration of features enabled to share files and requiring the same integration disabled features in order to run the program and the DOSBOX not full screen but the performance is much too slow to be practical (it is similar to take 2 minutes to scroll through a web page that is several pages a notch long) even at maximum settings.

    Please no suggestions ' do you have the printer "-I am part of a team of average size on how it works and it's pretty much the last roadblock after several months of work. We probably tried everything which is immediately obvious, including the recompilation of the source code for the program BACK (that we had to do anyway to remove a lock imposed by a society that no longer exists).

    The closest that I have is to reduce the resolution of the host Windows 7 in 800 x 600, which makes the VM a bit larger but still not quite full screen. I try to activate the VGA 640 x 480 mode, I guess? Even in this case, however, the need for constantly changing screen resolutions makes this solution less than ideal.

    Thank you for all the suggestions/help.

    Do I understand correctly:

    -It is an application with a fixed resolution of 640 x 480 fullscreen

    -You want that he developed the scale to fit to your screen

    As far as I KNOW, VMware Player is not just what to do.

    There is a tutorial in the section documents for a workaround (using the changer display to automatically change the resolution of the host).
