Resizing a Window

You can drag one of the borders to expand or contract the window on one side. Drag a corner to change two sides at once. The resize pointer appears when the mouse is at the correct position to begin the drag action.

How to Resize a Window

1. Choose Resize from the Window menu, or press Alt+F8.

   The resize pointer is displayed.

2. Move the mouse in the direction of the edge you want to resize, or press one of the keyboard arrow keys.

   The pointer changes to indicate the chosen edge. Now you can use the mouse or the arrow keys to move this edge of the window.

3. Click the mouse or press Return to accept the change.
