Q07D problem (bug?) Mark 08-09-2006

The One Step Update Summary page did not appear to have a way out. I did an
Alt-F4 to exit the program.

On second look, I noticed on the bottom of the screen a barely visible line
which turns out to be a the top of a button to close the view or window.
Been using the Samsung LCD monitor for a couple of years and never had a
problem.

Do I have a monitor setting problem or is there something wrong with Q07?
As I said before, I never had a screen problem before.

I'm still running IE6 with Firefox 1.5.06 as my default browser, no
probs there. Haven't tried IE7.

How large is your monitor, what resolution are you running at, and have
you changed the screen font size? I run OSU every day and have not seen
the problem you mention, though I admit I'm not clear as to what
view/window you're referring to. BTW, I have a Samsung 19" LCD,
1280x1024, default font size.

Now that I think about it.... One thing I *have* noticed is that on the
Quicken Home page, I only had five tabs across the top, with the last
one saying "More" followed by a down arrow. It was actually the last
two tabs (Investments and Accounts) doubled up, and I had to choose
which one I wanted each time I clicked on that tab. Mildly annoying, I
thought. Well, I have Quicken set to take up *most* of the screen but
not all. (I run XP with the classic view, so I have icons down the left
side. I like to keep these at least partially visible so I can click on
them without minimizing my apps. I do have Quicken filling the screen
vertically, however.) Anyway, when I maximized the Quicken window, I
suddenly had six tabs, so I no longer had the extra step of choosing
between Investments and Accounts from the "More" tab. I've also noticed
the new Q interface reduces the number of visible register transactions
by a few, although in return, I think the interface is easier on the
eyes. And finally I get to my point. Do you have the Quicken window
maximized? If not, you might try maximizing it to see if this solves
your display issue. I still have not had to maximize horizontally,
though I did have to stretch the Quicken window a bit so I could see all
six tabs on the Quicken Home page.

I hope all that made sense ... and is helpful. :-)

Regards,

Margaret

Ok, you got me showing my age. I increased resolution and got the whole
page. :-/ Not to 1280 x 1080 though. I'd have to hold a magnifying glass
on the screen.

Margaret, FYI, in XP right click the Taskbar and select Toolbar's >
Desktop. This will give you a Desktop item, next to the Systray, with a
clickable button with the » symbol. Clicking this gives you a menu of what
is on your Desktop, and access to them while having your apps maximized.
