how to rescue windows from off the screen?
Jan 10, 5: Feb 11, 4: Can't resize Excel spreadsheet More Less. This problem has been driving me crazy for months. With this bug, that is not possible, because the only think you can control on excel is the amount of lateral space it uses, not the amount of vertical space. In that case, you may well want the excel sheet and the finder window one on top of the other on the side of your screen and word open on the remainder. For example, you are in Word writing a letter about things listed on a spread sheet and about the files in certain folder. This is also a significant bug for people that may want just a small portion of a spreadsheet open while working on other files. And it again is Microsoft like, in that there was not a problem before Apple engineered one into existence.

In that case, in you go back from full screen to normal view you lack the bottom of the workbook. But more often, Excel opens a file in a manner that has the bottom of the workbook off the screen. Also rather ironic, as I find this new full screen behavior that Apple instituted to be very Microsoft-like: In full screen mode you can a press the esc key to return normal mode or, b take your mouse pointer to the top of the screen, wait a moment and the toolbar will drop down revealing the blue arrows, pushing them returns to normal mode.ĭec 18, 2: Thanks for the response, Csound1, but your solution unfortunately only works if the Excel originally opened the file in a way that made the entire workbook visible without expansion to full screen. This bug is extremely annoying for anyone that needs to work with multiple windows open that includes more than one excel workbook. Thus the fact that I can get to the bottom of a workbook in Apple's new full screen green button option helps me 0.
