oversized viewing problem

**Jerry B** · 10-21-2012, 11:00 PM

Somehow I have managed to make my view of the forum oversized on one of my computers and I can't work out how to shrink it back to size and it is doing my head in. It's fine on my other, older computer, but that defeats the object of having a newer computer. Can anyone help!!!!!!!!?

I have opened it up with firefox instead of chrome and it is fine, but if I try chrome it is still wrong. Help please!!! On my other computer it is open in chrome and is fine.

Is it a windows operating system? Dwight

I don't use it, but Lez does and she says in the top right hand corner of your screen there is an icon: either a spanner or what looks like three lines. You can click on that, then a % option comes up, which will allow you to shink/enlarge the page.

Cheers, Ade.

Not a spanner on my version, but 3 horizontal lines and if I click on that it has view size %setting and that has sorted it. Thanks Ade & Lez and thanks Dwight for asking as I use windows 7.

Try holding ctrl and scroll with your mouse wheel.
Oh I just read you worked it out already

Or ctrl and minus button on the keyboard

Slap your PC !
A punch might work also!

It has been sorted since the morning after I posted the question, but thanks to those still offering advice. The problem was caused by not using a mouse and using the built in control flat panel which when in use has a nasty habit of grabbing items all of it's own accord and this case somehow managed to oversize the screen, but only on this forum and everything else was fine as it was on my other laptop.

As I posted the other day, IT IS NOW SORTED.
