Hi,

I'm an absolute new to linux lite from Taiwan.

I found that I couldn't maximize the window of hime, so I couldn't save my change.

I've check this post https://dfgkh547-jsdfv8.iyhkj.tk/forums/secur...l-the-way/

and try to create a new account.

But it didn't work well.

Is there any clue for me to solve this problem?

Or did I misunderstand something?

Thanks!

What happens if you try pressing Alt and F10 together when the window is active ?

What is 'hime'? Moved to Support section.

I had a similar problem with a different app, and it turned out to be something to do with the app itself (fixed in a newer release of the app), as a workaround I made the window go full-screen, and only then I could see the save buttons. So, you could try that and see if it

Hi, but how to make the window go full-screen?

Because I couldn't press the button. :60:

That didn't work :60:

Double clicking on window title bar is normally set to Maximise the window and a right click on the window Title Bar should offer Maximise or Fullscreen options.  Do any of these work ?

Does using the scroll bar on the right of the application window allow you to scroll down ?

Do other applications work as expected ?

Well, I'm not familiar with "hime", don't even know what that is, could you provide a link to try and install? That way I could check.  Regarding how to make the app go full-screen, check if it provides some keyboard shortcut for that, in some apps, F11 or F12  keys are usually set for that action. Another option is installing wmctrl tool, once installed, launch a terminal and run

Code:

wmctrl -r ':ACTIVE:' -b toggle,fullscreen

where ':ACTIVE:'  is the window you want to maximize. For more details on what you can do with this, see the man page:
https://linux.die.net/man/1/wmctrl
and for some examples, see this tutorial:

Hi,

Thanks for your reply,

None of the above behaviors works, and I also couldn't scroll down the window.

Only this application didn't work well, others are perfect.
