One of my PCs runs the television. The TV, as a monitor, has a fixed resolution of 1360x768.
It delights me no end that PDF-XChange Viewer has the option to change the size of the user interface font. I can't tell you how much that helps my aging eyes on all our PCs, but particularly on the television PC. A setting of 12 points is great.
However, even when the font for the dialog boxes is set at the default of 9, the boxes are too big, vertically, to fit on the screen, so I lose the tops. I made a screen capture to illustrate the problem, but apparently I can't attach an image file. If I set it to 8, the dialog box shrinks enough to fit the screen, but that makes it nearly impossible for me to read.
So, Gentlemen, and Ladies, next time you are working on the interface, how about adding some vertical scroll bars to the dialog boxes?
One thing that needs changing

Re: One thing that needs changing
Hi Sarah,
thanks for the post and kind words. There is a work around for the dialogue boxes being too big for the screen, unfortunately it does involve reducing the font size.
We will be releasing a new version of the Viewer in March that will instead allow for scroll bars in dialogues in cases like this so a fix is already on the way.

Re: One thing that needs changing
This question made me just curious how to move a window without mouse control:
- Press ALT + spacebar (when the dialogbox is up)
This will show you the Move and Close options
- Press M (for Move)
- Now you can use the arrow/cursor keys to move the window (up/down/left/right)
- Press ENTER when you are done
- Press ALT + spacebar (when the dialogbox is up)
This will show you the Move and Close options
- Press M (for Move)
- Now you can use the arrow/cursor keys to move the window (up/down/left/right)
- Press ENTER when you are done
