Change the palette size of the publisher dialogue box on Mac

[Anonymous]

Dear Users,

I have a problem whereby the publisher dialogue box has been extended to the point the I can not move the palette up the screen far enough to grab the grip to change the size.

I am currently using a Macbook Pro 15 with max screen resolution (1440x900). I have even tried moving the docked palettes to the side and hiding the mac dock to maximise the screen. See attachment.

Any help would be great, as at this size I can not publish or set settings for publishing on this dialogue box.

Try changing (even reducing) your screen resolution, and see if it becomes adjustable. Then change your resolution back.

Forgive me as I am not familiar with Macs.
Can you resize the dialogue from the top like we can in Windows?

S2art, thanks but this does not work.
Barry, Mac has the grip on the bottom right corner to change size and the dialogue does not have a min., max, close buttons.

This is a pet hate of the Macs and the half baked docking of palettes of the OS.

I wasn't meaning the min/max/close buttons.
In windows we can resize any edge or corner of a dialogue box.

Barry,

From my use of both Window and Mac, this is something that I hate about Macs well at least in 10.6 (Snow Leopard) the Mac does not have this function like Windows.

Bummer, it's worked for me in the past.

Work around:

go to the Work Environment > Tool Schemes > and select Standard Tools 15.

Then apply settings.

You will have to add and re size/re arrange your palettes and then save the scheme.
