Something like the following should get you in the ballpark in the meantime (and give you an example to work with): Code:
::-webkit-scrollbar { width: 23px; height: 23px; } ::-webkit-scrollbar-track { background-color: #E8E8E8; } ::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb { height: 26px; background: #C0C0C0; } ::-webkit-scrollbar-thumb:hover { background: #A9A9A9; } |

From a maximized state, you have to hit the "Restore Down" button on the title bar to resize. Then you can grab the edges to resize. If you can't grab an edge, move Sigil a bit (after restoring down) by dragging the toolbar so one of it's edges becomes available to grab.
It seems to be maximizing just a titch beyond the actual screen-size, but other than that, can't get it to misbehave on Windows or Linux. Last edited by DiapDealer; 06-26-2019 at 11:35 AM. |

You may be able to hand edit your Sigil.ini file with a text editor (carefully) to change the geometry as a last resort.

The 5th instance shows them adjacent but no restart was requested. Restored the snapshot and tried again and again no restart. This was the Insider Preview edition which is a bit weird at times. |

Cool! Thanks! I usually use mouse and keyboard to navigate, but on the occasions when I go to grab the scrollbar, this helps a lot!

Seemed to install fine on Windows 10 64
However it seemed to freeze in multiple instances: 1) If I double clicked on an ePub file then I would get a blank preview window and no main window. I had to close out with Sigil showing "Not responding". 2) Same thing if I click on the Sigil icon in the start menu to open without loading a book. 3) If I restart the computer then (using the Start menu icon) I am able to open to Sigil's main window plus a blank preview. 4) I then used the "open" icon to get an ePub file that loaded almost instantly - Yay! - but the preview window was still blank ant the program froze again (not responding). 5) I uninstalled 9.15 and then reinstalled - same issues UPDATE: OK, I restarted; opened from the start menu and then deselected the (undocked) preview pane. I was then able to use the main window functionality until I re enabled the preview pane. Then I got the same freezing issues. I uninstalled again and deleted the old sigil preferences folder, restarted again and was able to get everything working without the freezing issues. Do you think you should force undocked windows back to a default position on install?? Or force the preview window to be deselected on install?? Last edited by Turtle91; 06-26-2019 at 07:23 PM. |

For the empty epub load, the default created Section0001.xhtml will show an absolutely blank Preview as it has no visible content.
Could you be launching Sigil with some leftover compatibility settings? Not sure why it us hanging and not responding. Have to tried exempting it from your virus / defender scans? I am not seeing this on Linux or Mac? Is anyone else on Windows seeing this? |

Sorry I updated the last post while you were replying.
Here is a different, minor, nit: The plugin manager button selectors for the first 5 are squished and unreadable until after you add some plugins, then close and reopen the manager. |

I'm loathe to retest with the next release as it would mean reverting to 0.9.13, restoring settings, and uninstalling the 2017 VC++ redistributable but ... open to requests A programmer who used to work for me said of C++, "It's really good at hiding the data, but it's even better at hiding the bugs."

Added: I missed your update regarding the PV window, I have it docked to the right, works fine in that config. If I undock it, close Sigil, and restart I have to press F10 to get it back again (that might be my kb shortcut) BR Last edited by BetterRed; 06-26-2019 at 07:55 PM. |

Wow it is like the geometry of the Dialogs are all off. Have you tried making the PluginManager Preferences window wider by grabbing the corner and pulling.
Does that help? The funny part is that code only ever had 5 plugin slots so the whole dialog needs to be wider now to get things to work. Once you adjust the size, and close that window with okay it should remember the new width. Last edited by KevinH; 06-26-2019 at 08:43 PM. |

My guess is new Sigil is reading sizing and positioning from the previous version and some things have changed and now that sizing is too small or not correct in some minor way. Resizing these Windows once should be all you need to fix the layout issues.
