Omar Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I have problems with my start bar, it seems all the icons are resized, as you can see below: There are problems with all the themes I use. Reducing the font size seems the work for the icons (as you can see in the third bar), but the start button is still all stretched. My IE6 is also weird, but changing the font size to Smallest works. However, Swiftswitch runs on Internet Explorer 6, and it messes the highscores: As you can see, the numbers are a teeny weeny too spaced out (what seems to be my construction level is in fact my runecrafting level). And I can't download IE7, because my mother wouldn't know jack from crap, and she's the only one who uses IE (I use FireFox). The bar at the top of my window is also messed on some themes: I've tried changing the resolution, but it doesn't work. Thanks in advance for all help. Matt: You want that eh?

Hitman247m Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Um, try this: Right click on the desktop, click properties, then, click the "appearance" tab, then go the the drop-down tab called "font-size" select the normal font size, then press apply. If that dosen't work, then open the appearance tab again, then press "advanced" just tinker around with the stuff in there untill your stuff works again, it might be a problem with the theme program you're using.

Omar Posted September 3, 2007 Author Share Posted September 3, 2007 Nope, does it for all the themes I've tried. Even the default theme is stretched. Edit: resolves the bar at the top of the window problem, as well as the stretched out icon problems. Matt: You want that eh? You want everything good for you.

Hitman247m Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Oh, well, if it fixes that stuff, then messing around with the advanced stuff should fix the rest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miss18 Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Have you downloaded another program to make your browser better? If you did delete it also i have the same problem with SS it is the screen res they are trying to make it smaller for lower res screens but it might come out before end of year. Hope it helps, Miss Private Chat Is Allways 'ON' So Say Hello To Me, Don't Worry I Won't Bite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exe16p Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Your computer could be stretching the start bar because you resolution (amount of pixels on your screen) might not be the best with the monitor you use. right click on the desktop and click on properties. then go to settings and you should notice a scrolling tab which you can change the screens resolution. Try you screen at 1024X768 (if a 17 inch screen) (if your screens bigger then try a higher resolution.) Hope it help :D :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon_7 Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Another guy here had the exact same problem and he never managed to fix it that I know of :? . What did you do? You must have done something for everything to change like that. Maybe if you can explain what you've done recently, we may be able to offer some help. I guess it's possible that you changed your DPI setting? (Right click on your desktop -> Properties -> Settings tab -> Advanced -> General tab -> Make sure your DPI is set to the default). I'm not sure if that would change the way your icons look though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandon_7 Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Have you tried doing a System Restore to an earlier date? And did you try rebooting your computer after you set it back to the normal DPI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercifull Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Careful when discussing 3rd party clients, might wanna remind yourself of tipit rules on the subject.

Omar Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 You're allowed to post screenshots from SS, but not link to it. At least, that's what I understand from the rules.
