SilvrT Posted August 1, 2009 #1 Posted August 1, 2009 All of a sudden, out of nowhere, all the posts (the ones with multiple lines of text) no longer fit within the width of the screen and I have a horizontal scroll bar at the bottom and I have to scroll right to see all the text. ... ???? It wasn't like this, this morning or ever before. Yes, I am a computer tech but when such things happen "out of the blue", I have no immediate answer. Nothing on my system has changed (that I know of). Any ideas out there?
SilvrT Posted August 1, 2009 Author #2 Posted August 1, 2009 forget it... it's back to normal now... I did nothing...I swear! Weird these computer gizmos!

Freebird Posted August 1, 2009 #4 Posted August 1, 2009 No, it didn't happen for no reason. Here is what is happening. If somebody links to a large picture in their post, it causes the entire page to widen enough to show that picture. So some threads will do it and others will be normal. I have a hack installed that automatically resizes those pics that are too large. Then I got a PM from a member letting me know that some of the pictures that are automatically resized in the tech library open small even when you click on them. So, those pics in the tech library were useless. I have temporarily disabled my hack that resizes the pictures until I have time to fix the problem. It will probably be a couple of weeks because I'm on the road now headed to the rally. I will get it figured out ASAP though.

Sailor Posted August 1, 2009 #9 Posted August 1, 2009 Don't know if it is relevant to this site but I often get sent pictures which are way too large for my screen. When that happens I click on "Attachment" then double click it. That allows me to resize the picture with the wheel on my mouse. When I print it, it comes out the same size as on the screen. I think it stays that size when I forward it as well.
