Shopbot link window size

Post by Kenneth Rychlik »

On one of my laptops, the shopbot link window opens very small. There are no maximize windows, and it won't let me drag the box out to be bigger.

It is on a dell 9400 with XP.

I am wondering if anyone knows a way to make the window come up larger.

Thanks

Kenneth,

Try double clicking the blue bar at the top of the link window.

Thanks for the idea Kerry, but no luck

I clicked till my finger got tired, but nothing happens. lol

I can right click there and it will let me close the box, but not maximize it.

Sorry Kenneth,

That was just a guess. It works to maximize the Item window in eCabinets so I thought it might work.

That helps a touch Gary, but still the window is only 25% of my screen. All other window's programs allow you to maximize or even drag arrows to change the window size.

I thought maybe I was missing something.

Rick, I lowered it to 1200 x 1600 from the max at around 1900. It helped a little but not much.
I lowered it all the way and it messed up my desktop and re-arranged all my icons.

I don't really want to rebuild my pc. I just want a button to maximize the window so I can work with a full screen. Arrows to drag the box bigger would be fine also.

Seems like a simple request.

In the thermwood control nesting there is a place you can go into the ini file and change the font size.

Is that possible with the shopbot link to change the font size and make the window size larger?
