Windows 7 - Application Menus drop to the LEFT instead of right.

It started just past one day, there may be two or three days? So I can't really say what caused it. I was trying to get my Wacom tablet to work properly with Photoshop CS3, when I open Photoshop and found that when I clicked on one of the menus toolbar, rather than fall down and to the right, she is turned down and left. If it is not a major issue, it is hard work effectively when I repeatedly try to re - find all my commands menu. At first, I thought it was just Photoshop, then just Adobe products, when I found some of my other apps (like an old copy of Word97) had the same problem. However, programs like Opera, Firefox and Skype do not seem to be affected. Also, it does not affect a right click on my desktop icons and menus that appear from this.

I know it's probably that some setting SOMEWHERE, but I can't. I tried to look online for an answer, but the most I get is «how to make a drop down CSS menu» I'd really like to get this working so I can return to the effective use of my programs.

I also checked to see if it has been updated the driver for the tablet that did it, and I found in the settings of the Tablet PC that it was set for "right hand", that makes the menus appear to the left of your tablet, click. Pass left-handed, however, only changed the settings for when the pen is used.

Thank you.

Hi, once again Rinzei.

Thanks MVP Ronnie Vernon, I now have a better answer for you.  Here is the text of a message, it has published today in this Forum in the wire, "menu appears to the left of my cursor", started yesterday (10/05/10) by gLiheng:

There are a few problems with this behavior. First of all, if you are clicking very near the right edge of the screen, the drop-down menus will appear left everything simply because there is not enough room on the right side of the menu.

The other problem is that the parameter 'Handedness' has become corrupted or changed. To change this, follow these steps.

Press the Windows key + R to bring up the Run dialog box. In the open line, copy / paste the following text.

Shell: {80F3F1D5-FECA-45F3-BC32-752C152E456E}

Press OK.

This will start the configuration of the Tablet PC settings dialog (even if you don't have a Tablet PC).

Select the other tab.

In the right-handed/left-handed section, place a check in the option Left Handed .

Click OK.

This should place the menus on the right side.

Thank you for using Windows 7

  • Some dropdown menus drop on the left edge of the page instead of under the main menu

    Some drop-down menus at the left edge of the page instead of under the main menu.
    This does not happen on all web sites. Very confusing.

    Yes, I see the same thing with Firefox 21 with the menu container.

    Works fine for me with the beta version of Firefox 22 and later, it's broken in the current Firefox version 21.

    You can consider making a custom of the beta version of Firefox 22 Setup or wait a few weeks until Firefox 22 is released.

    You will need to create a new profile for the beta version, so not to launch Firefox after installing the beta.

    Hello MBSola,

    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

    I understand that a problem with your desktop PC HP Pavilion 500 where both left and right click are bring up the right click options and that he only started last week. I suggest you use the HP support document: use Microsoft System Restore (Windows 8), which will guide you through how to restore your computer to a point in time (a week or two ago) where the left click was working properly on your computer.

    Please re-post if you need extra support. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  • Click Bookmark, new page opens in a frame on the left instead of moving to a new tab?

    When I click one of my favorites saved in my bookmarks toolbar, it will open the new 'window' in a foldable chassis on the left side of my screen, leaving the page I was currently opened as the main means of navigation rather than switching on.

    Ex: I am currently on the mozilla support page, if I click on one of my favorites... say that facebook, it will be open from facebook in a framed navigation (sidebar) of all kinds that can only grow about an inch and a half on my screen, leaving the original page. How can I get rid of the sidebar?

    Hello

    Please take a look at this thread:

    Re: Default Apex 5 main Navigation to closed

    The code that you need to exsecute all pages is the following:

    .about $(window) ("theme42ready", function() {}

    If ($("body").hasClass ("js-navExpanded")) {}

    $("#t_Button_navControl").click ();

    }

    If ($("body").hasClass ("js-rightExpanded")) {}

    $("#t_Button_rightControlButton").click ();

    }

    });

    In the future, we plan to have an API available for users with more elegance.

    Please let me know if you encounter any problems,

  • Can I change the side (instead of right to left) the pop-out submenu?

    My submenu flys out on the right side of my main menu:

    Screen Shot 2013-08-12 at 2.21.29 PM.png

    Is it possible to have the submenu flyout left instead? I looked through the options and tried dragging above but neither have worked.

    Select submenu items and use the conversion options (location X) to move to the left of the Vertical menu. However, the position will be reset to its original location if you try to make changes for the submenu or menu items parent. To resolve this problem, you can finish by their style first, and then move it to the end by changing their location X.

    Thank you

  • Firefox 29.0.1 Mac 10.9.2 on this version only, Firefox window seems stuck to dock (on the left side for me). I can resize the window, but cannot be moved.

    Firefox window gets stuck in the same place. I can re-size, I can go full-screen (or back), but the main, when 'magnified' flat 2 cm below the main toolbar. I can't do seem to 'take off' it. It is also in the main window, but I can drag the other windows on it. Essentially, this does not in my view.

    I just corrected it. the title bar should be turned on? Is by default 'off' and why? I go to display/Toobars/customize. The response time for clicks grew by at least 2 x the latest version. Now, I have no footer for my apps bar, maybe I'll find that, too?

    Yes, sorry, it's W-Explorer rt-click prob, then I started having some BS, 1st I opened a new way of thinking it would be a different problem at all, so I opened another, without thinking about group.

  • How to reposition a Web page to the left instead of to the right where I can't access reduce, enlarge or close?

    The far-right has a column of "gadgets". It wasn't a problem until yesterday. Google Chrome has begun to open to the far right taking away my access to the above and the scroll bar. I got this calculation at least 2 years.

    Google Chrome has begun to open to the far right taking away my access to the above and the scroll bar.

    You can still use the taskbar window menus, for example via right click; If you don't even see a window to fight against it.   Also, even if you don't you can probably even control it via the keyboard when you know you have the keyboard focus. for example, press Alt + Tab to find and press Alt-space, to see its menu of the window.  Alternatively, you could minimize all but the window problem, e.g. Press Win - D, restore the problem (using the button on the bar or tasks by pressing Alt - Tab to find), and then use the command of the Cascade windows taskbar (for example with right-click an empty area on the toolbar using this option).

    BTW this is not really the right place to be looking for help with your Windows username interface.   ; )

  • Position the tab in white: How can I make new tab (CTRL + T) opened on the left instead of the right-wing?

    When I open a new tab (Virgin, leave a link), it opens on the far right of the tab bar. This does not work for me because when I open a new tab, I use it immediately, so I would be to appear adjacent to the tab I'm currently using. I've scoured the forums and support without finding a way to change the position of new tabs.

    NOTE: When I say 'new tab', I'm average NEW tabs - the kind that contains the new tab page, created using CTRL + T, or file-> new tab not tabs opened from links. I am stressing this point because I found a lot of questions and answers on how to make links open in a new tab open on the far right, or next to the active tab by changing the value in browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent in all: config.

    The Tab Mix Plus extension seems to have this feature, pictured in the screen shot here: http://tmp.garyr.net/help/#Events_-_New_Tabs

  • How can I get rid of this line of icons below the bookmarks, which has Startnow on the left and Twitter right?

    I asked for help among the items available. I have been informed that the click with the right button on a free part of the toolbar would give me the possibility to delete or hide. Doesn't seem to work with it. In fact, right click anywhere on this line does not work. If I right click the icon "startnow", it takes me to this page. Really, I don't want this toolbar, as it wastes my desk space. How can I get rid of him?

    You see this toolbar in view > toolbars or Firefox > Options if the menu bar is hidden?

    You can attach a screenshot?

    Use a type of compressed as PNG or JPG image to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (1 MB).

  • I can move my panels display on the left side of the screen

    I am part of the 10% who are handed, I'm on a tablet of Microsoft and use a stylus for photoshop with my left hand, which gets in the way of

    adjustment, navigation, signs of history located on the right-hand side of the screen

    is it possible that I can move the adjustment and other panels on the left side of the screen

    or is there a left-handed version of photoshop?

    Thank you

    Of course, simply move the panels and the left edge of the edge of the screen and when you see a blue line release the mouse button and Panel will be docked to the left instead of right.

  • Anchor to the top of the page moves to the left

    Hi, I have a problem. An anchor is supposed to go to the top of the page.  I have placed in several places to anchor higher, again, created new documents etc. again whenever I click on the hyperlink element, it goes up, but always goes back slightly to the left instead of right.

    Does anyone have a solution?

    I had a similar problem, this site has helped:

    http://www.Muse-themes.com/blogs/News/8693367-quick-tip-fixing-vertical-scrolling-bugs

    When I made, the anchor was as far left as possible, (i.e. aligned on the left edge) and moved my analytical google tag in the head in the upper right, it fixed my problem (the menu kept jumping to the left). I think he picked up the analytical code that has been less marked down and off the page.

    However, I now have a new issue, only now, when I click on my menu bar, which all goes to anchors, the first work, then the next I click do nothing. The url changes to #anchorname, but then the site does not move. And after that, it is frozen and I can not scroll away?

    My site is www.weathertogether.org

    If anyone can help please do!
