Resizing Windows

 

A window that is not maximized or minimized can be stretched and dragged to be any size or position on your screen. You can "grab" any side or corner of a resizable window and relocate it.

 

Let's change the lower right hand corner of a window.

 

HOW TO DO IT

 

1.     Make sure that your window is not maximized or minimized. Choose the restore option as       described in the previous section.

2.     Position the pointer over the lower right hand corner of the window. You'll be able to change the       position when the pointer changes to a double-headed arrow that looks like the figure below.

3.     CLICK and Drag (Remember, that means click and hold the left button.) the arrow to
       another location on the screen. As you do so an outline of the resized window will appear on the        screen.

4.     Release the left button when the window is the size that you want.

 

You can resize more than just the lower right corner. You can also relocate any window edge by following the same procedure. All four sides and all four corners can be moved by clicking and dragging. The only difference will be the angle of the double-headed arrow.
