Surface Pro (1st Gen) On Screen Keyboard Size

Apr 2, 2015

The on screen keyboard on the Surface pro is tiny in the new Windows 10 builds! It is probably 1/4 of the size that it was in Windows 8.1. Is there any way to enlarge it?

Set Keyboard Display On Surface Pro

Aug 14, 2015

Surface Pro, running Widows 10 perfectly, except when I want the on screen keyboard, selecting in the lower right task bar. It brings up another window, which allows me to select a keyboard, or scribe, then I want to select a keyboard.

BUT, every time I relaunch the keyboard, it goes thru the same process.

Why can't I have my keyboard come up without asking if I want to scribe or talk, just bring up the correct style keyboard.

It is in English which is the preferred language.

Surface 3 - Keyboard Covers Up Half Of Page?

Aug 9, 2015

Just upgraded to windows 10 on my surface 3, the only thing, MAJOR thing that is bugging me and making me want to revert back to 8.1....

On 8.1, the window I was using resized itself so the entire window was visible. Windows 10 has decided I don't need to see the bottom half of a page whilst I am using the keyboard.

So if I want to type Facebook messages I have to keep opening and closing the keyboard to check what I have typed.

I know they've had a lot of bugs to sort, but I CANNOT believe this has been overlooked.

Tablet mode doesn't solve the problem and I don't intend to use tablet mode, it's utter garbage.

Screen Size Too Small For Monitor - How To Make It To Fit The Screen

Dec 4, 2015

I upgraded to Windows 10. The entire screen shows up in about 75% of my monitor with the rest black. It's not that the fonts are too small, it's just that it makes my monitor look a lot smaller and I cannot seem to get it to fill up the entire monitor like Windows 8.

Improve Screen Size?

Nov 9, 2015

I have just update a dell tablet to win 10. I would like to increase the screen viewing area and have auto hidden the task bar.

My question is about the 2 top bars, ( not sure of the correct names ). Can either of these bars be hidden/removed/disabled and so increase the screen size.

I know how to go full screen when I reach my target page, its just in the general viewing scenario that I wish a larger viewing size.

How To Change Overall Windows Screen Size

Oct 25, 2015

I recently have started plugging in my laptop to a TV using HDMI to play a few games. However when I do so, the screen is cut on the TV display, so I miss an inch or two on each size. I have tried adjusting every setting under the sun on my tv, and laptop to try and change this without any success so I was wondering is there a program I can use to temporarily change the size of the windows display to bring it in by an inch. Obviously this would look odd on my laptop screen but would work on my Tv screen.

Windows Desktop Won't Properly Size On Screen

Nov 11, 2015

I can't get the desktop to properly size up on my screen. You can notice in the screenshot (in the lower right corner) that part of the taskbar is cut off. I have tried making adjustments via the NVIDIA control panel to no avail.

I'm using a 50" Plasma HDTV and it is hooked up to my PC via HDMI. My previous HDTV was a 42" LCD and I never had a problem with desktop size and position.

Size Of Content Is Bigger Than Actual App Window Size In Modern Apps

Apr 5, 2015

Experiencing problem with the modern apps, where the content of the app is bigger than the actual app window, so it is impossible to use it, because the controls (buttons, input fields, scrollbars are not visible)?

Resizing of the app does not work, as the content is still bigger (its wrongly resizing with the window). Even maximized app is still unusable.

It occurs mainly in the Skype, Mail, People or Calendar apps. As you can see on the Skype screenshot, as soon as app starts it shifts the skype logo to the right, and the whole content is shifted as well.

You can also see the shift bellow, as the Options menu is partially hidden as well.

Skype is impossible to use, because the text input field on bottom is not visible.

Performance :: Folder Size Greater Than Size On Disk

Jan 13, 2016

My 32GB Windows 10 Home PC (recently upgraded from 8.1) is low on disk space. I deleted Windows.old and I have hibernation disabled. Apart from a few browsers, very little else is installed, yet I only have 11.7GB left?

One reason may be the size of the Windows folder:
Size 14.7GB
Size on Disk 9.91GB

From my calculations, Windows appears to be using the higher figure in determining available disk space.

Why is 'Size' so much greater than 'Size on Disk', can I do anything about it? I have a similar 8.1 machine, it does not have this disparity (12.4GB and 12.3GB).

What would be a normal 'Size' for a Windows folder on Windows 10 Home PC very recently upgraded from 8.1 i.e. with few, if any Windows live updates run ?

Display / Folder Size And Text Size Changes?

Dec 29, 2015

I am having repeated problems with text and folders sizes. I had set them up to suit me a while ago, but every now and then they change, apparently by themselves - perhaps after an upgrade? I certainly don't remember making any changes myself.

At the moment the folders I have on my home screen are very small and bunched up into the top left hand corner of the screen. And the text labels to the folders are almost too small for my tired old eyes to read.

How do I get the folders to be bigger, the same size as I had them in Windows 7? And how to I get the text labels to be the same size as they were before? I already have text size set to 175%.

Also, when I open a folder or list contents in some programs the text looks fainter than it should, and has a strange look to it - certainly not the same as when I was running Windows 7; it's much poorer.

Customize On-Screen Keyboard?

Dec 31, 2015

When I open the on screen keyboard on my Asus VivoTab 8 with my stylus it opens the "writing box" rather than the actual keyboard. Obviously this writing box isn't very useful because it's inaccurate and you can't really write more than one word at a time. My question is, how do I make the keyboard pop up by default? It's extremely annoying always having to switch to the keyboard manually.

edit And is there any way to make the keyboard semi-transparent so it doesn't block half the screen? To me this seems like an obvious feature that any on screen keyboard should have.

Keyboard ( Even On-screen ) Won't Capitalize Letters With Shift

Jan 24, 2016

I can capitalize every letter/symbol except for letters "t" and "m." In order for me to capitalize them, I have to use the caps lock function.

I can't even use the on-screen keyboard to capitalize said letters, it simply doesn't go through.

This might or might not be a hardware issue as I've used two different mostly new keyboards and the function works fine on a different PC.

On Screen Keyboard Will Not Automatically Resize To Make Way

Jul 31, 2015

Here is the problem I have experienced for the on-screen keyboard (with or without tablet mode),

- When the on-screen keyboard comes up, the windows will not automatically resize to make way. The Keyboard will end up covering the window. (In Windows 8.1, all windows will resize.) (In Windows 10, only Store App and Microsoft Edge knows how to resize.)

How To Lock Screen Instantly Without Pressing Window-L Keyboard

Feb 10, 2016

I sometimes connect to my Windows 10 PC at my work place from home.

When I was using Windows-7(work place PC), I was able to select the menu button (lower-left) and select 'Lock Screen' menu from the shutdown sub-menu. I recently received a new desktop PC which is Windows-10, but I found Windowns 10 doesn't have such 'lock-screen' menu that I can choose with my mouse. So the only way I can lock the screen is using Window-L button which is ok when I'm at work. But when I'm remotely logged in from my home, if I press Window-L keys, my home notebook is screen locked, not my work place Desktop.
