Photoshop :: CS6 - Sizing Document Window To Fit The Screen
Nov 8, 2012
My copy of PS CS6 has problems sizing the document window. In Standard Screen mode it does not enlarge the window to fit the screen.
In Full Screen Mode (with and without Menu Bar) it will not size the image to fit the screen. The gray area extends way below the bottom of the display and does not have the bar containing size percentage and other information at the bottom.
I have the impression Photoshop does not read the display's size information and therefore doesn't know what to do. It's an Apple Cinamea 23" display. ATI Radeon HD 4870 video card. OS X 10.6.8.

I am a digital scrapbook designer and I, and several fellow designers, have just started experiencing some odd behavior in CS. It is occuring on both Mac and PC platforms and in versions of CS3 through 5.
We create 12 x 12 in (3600 x 3600 px) 300 dpi documents used by our customers as "backgrounds" for digital scrapbooking kits. We save the documents as jpg's Basline Standard, anywhere from 8-12. Sometimes, if we open a saved jpg and place (drag) it onto a new 12 x 12 document, we notice that the saved file is just a bit and sometimes as much as an 8th of an inch smaller than the new document, even though they are both 12 x 12, 300 dpi. Additionally sometimes when we drag the saved files from Finder or Windows Explorer to a new document while holding the shfit key to center placement, we're still off by that same 8th of an inch. Sometimes, if we align the horizontonal and vertical, the same jpg will be perfectly aligned and no longer too small for the 12 x 12 document and sometimes you can very clearly see the edges of the layer beneath.
This issue is driving us nuts because it just started happening recently and our customers, who very often have their finished scrapbook pages printed, have also started noticing. I don't have a clue where start trouble-shooting this.

when you do a FILE > OPEN and the image comes up, it is contained in the DOCUMENT WINDOW, no?
I noticed that if you press CTRL and + you zoom in, and CTL and - then you zoom out. But the document window seems to ignore the palettes on the right hand side of the application.
Is there any way to make Photoshop not extend the document window so that it resides partially behind the palettes?
I notice that if you press CTRL + ALT and + then you zoom in WITHOUT modifying your document window (same for CTRL + ALT and -) , but I cannot see how to remap CTRL and + to what CTRL+ALT and + does.

In CS3, the document window abutted the palette (panel) stack and expanded automatically when I collapsed the stack. How do I make CS4 (Windows XP) do this?

suddenly Photoshop CC seems to be broken. When using selection- or drawingtools, the documentwindow where I draw starts flashing black frames while drawing and sometimes the frame even stays black.
It's really odd, 'cause this Photoshop version used to work fine.Updating the version to the latest version (14.1.2 x64) didn't fix the problem. I use Windows8.
I don't believe any of the videodrivers were updated recently, but I will check that too.

My company bought the photoshop CC for my work and my notebook, where the photoshop was installed, have Windows 8. The problem is: when I go to move some element in the document (Ctrl+T), make a selection or move the document (Space+Click) the screen flashes black, and sometimes it turns black and don't go back until I move the document.
when I'm going to move a layer to some part of the document the screen keeps flashing black until I finish it.The difference is, in the Windows 7 it doesn't happen at all, the photoshop runs beautifully. It just happens in Windows 8.
Notebook specs:
Windows 8
Intel I5 3230M
6gb RAM
500GB HD

Ive booted my computer up and started Photoshop. i use a second screen, its installed automatically on Mac OSX 1.8. Now, when i drag the file to th second screen, it appears to become black. if i drag it back to my Home-Screen, the content appears. Resizing don't change anything as well as disable the graphic processor on Photoshop.
A second restart solves the issue. but i don't want to restart my machine every time when i work on Photoshop.

When I try and move a corner of my open document with the hand tool to the center of the document window in CS5 when zoomed out, it stops at the edges and will not move inward any further. It is sometimes more convenient to be able to work on a zoomed in corner of a document when it is centered in the document window. If I go to the rotate tool and set a slight angle, I can then move the document anywhere in the window at any magnification! Is there a setting that is locking the document at the edge of the screen when zoomed out?

"fit on screen" and command+0 resize window despite "zoom resizes window" being disabled in PS preferences.
- How do i disable the resizing of the window for this scenario?
- Why? I work on two levels frequently - manipulating details, command-0 for checking the whole, and then zooming back into details. Command+0 resizes and repositions my window disregarding my specific window layout. Fullscreen is sadly no option, i usually work on multiple windows side by side specificly arranged.

I recently installed / upgraded to CS5.1, set up all my preferences, keyboard shortcuts, presets, plugins. All worked fine, day in - day out, for the last three weeks. About three days ago this anomaly appeared...
When I zoom in (cmd +/), the window will resize, but only part way. The window will move over flush right on the monitor, but leave about one inch of space between the window and the left side of the monitor, and increase in size until it fits aprox 2/3rds of the monitor / screen. It stops enlarging and leaves about 3 inches of space between the window and the bottom of the screen. At that point I get scroll bars. So I end up with a much smaller window to work in.
I can grab the bottom right corner of the window, pull it open to fill the screen, but as soon as I go to zoom in or out, the window jumps back to the smaller size with the gap on the left side and bottom.
Option bar is "Standard Screen Mode"
All my pallets are on a separate monitor, so nothing else is on my main monitor that would limit the size of my window as I zoom in.
My preferences are set to:
• Zoom Resizes Windows
• Enable Flick Panning (works fine)
• Animated Zoom
OS 10.5x
10GB ram
I don't know if I inadvertently changed something to cause this.

My Elements 10 window is to big for my monitor screen and there seems to be no way that I can make it smaller. I cannot see the green x and I cannot click and drag the window. I am using a MAC computer.

I have a customer that sent me some Illustrator files (.ai) that, when I open them, they open with just a blank window and a box with no fill or stroke around the outside of the document. I am using Illustrator CS4 and I suspect this may be an Illustrator CS6 document but I didn't get any warnings when I opened it so I'm not sure. (I also don't know what version of Illustrator the original creator is using). The document sizes are large (35MB +) so there should be SOME content in them. I've tried making sure nothing is hidden and there are no layers that are turned off. I've also tried opening the files in Acrobat CS4 with no luck.

Using Illustrator CS6 for Windows, when I open a document and then open a second window (Window > New Window), I can show rulers (View > Rulers > Show Rulers) in one window without affecting the behavior of the other.
I can also hide edges (View > Hide Edges) in just one window, but not the other. I can even show the transparency grid (View > Show Transparency Grid) in one window, but not the other.
This is all as expected, and very useful when I keep one window on my working monitor and drag the other window to the monitor my client is watching.
The problem is this: when hide or show the bounding box (View > Hide/Show Bounding Box), it affects both windows. Furthermore, it affects all open documents--not just multiple windows belonging to one document.
This is maddening--is there some way I can restrict that change to just one window? I can't imagine why other View options are per-window, but this View option is application-wide.
TL;DR: In Illustrator CS6 for Windows, how can I hide the bounding box in one and only one document window?

When I am editing a picture in Photoshop, I use a lot of keyboard shortcuts for curves, hue/saturation, etc. but I get frustrated that the box shows up right in the middle of the screen, over the picture I am trying to edit. This makes me have to move it out of the way with the mouse to see what the changes will look like. Is there a way to have it default it popping up to a corner of the screen or even a way to move it without having to grab the mouse?. It is my #1 Photoshop frustration and I figure there is a way that I just can't seem to find it.

I have never been able to use Full Screen Mode / Full Screen Mode with Menu Bar because my Window Tabs disappear.
Until now I have ignored this but I really want to start making the most of my screen space. I don't understand how people can go into full screen mode without tabs of their open documents. It makes the experience completely useless to me and I can't believe I can't find any solutions online. I feel like I am overlooking a simple button somewhere on the screen thinking "surely Adobe would include this!?"
I am currently on 13 inch MacBook Pro using CS6 beta.

Not sure how this happened, but the top of my Elements 11 Organizer screen is off of the top of my desktop screen (OS Mavericks). I cannot resize or get to the minimize button to fix. I am stuck only seeing the bottom of the Organizer Screen. Organizer (which I use VERY OFTEN) is renedered useless until I can get a resolution to this.

i have a simple block of text on a PS doc that is supposed to be black (i've checked many times and it's color =000000) but it looks gray on screen and prints gray. i checked opacity. it's 100%. i tried opening a new PS doc to see if somehow the doc itself was messed up, but i have the same problem in a brand new doc. make sure it wasn't a printer issue, i printed some text in MS Word and it got black just fine.

I'm having trouble getting both of my printers to print out to the same tone/colour that is displayed on my Monitor. Neither are accurate
Is there anything I can do with my monitor settings, or my photoshop/illustrator colour settings so that what I see on the screen is what will be printed out.
The printers are :
1) Hewlett Packard 1220C
2)Epson Stylus 2100
They both print out differently.
For the HP printer I've looked at the 'Image Colour Management' and it states the 'ICM is handled by host'
For the Epson printer the Colour Management is set to 'Automatic: Windows will automatically select the best colour profile from the list of associated color profiles'
I know it's possible to change the Color Setting in Photoshop but I don't really know what to set it to, and who to set it so it's as close to my monitor display as possible. (I work with RGB colour)

I'm trying to change the active document window size with vb.net. This seems like it should be straightforward, but I'm having some trouble. Below is some code that I tried to use which I found on the AutoCAD DevBlog.. I thought I understood how this works, but I can't seem to import the correct references to make it work.
Dim doc As Document = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument()
Dim docWindow As Window = doc.Window
Dim size As Size = docWindow.Size
docWindow.WindowState = Window.State.Normal
docWindow.Size = New Size(500, 500)

I closed a document in AI CS5. Now when I try to reopen it, I get an error message about there not being enough room in the window, increase document area. How do I do that since I can't get the file opened? Am I doomed to having a file that can no longer be opened?

Is there the possibility to resize the GIMP window to fit on my screen?
