    Default Website comes up skinny on Explorer/Chrome ?

    Using Web Designer 365 Premium I constructed a small website and it
    does not fill the screen on any browser only about 1/2 the monitor screen.
    Can anyone tell me what I did wrong?

    thank you
    Wayne

    Hi Wayne and welcome to TG, your page size is 960 wide by 1000 px long and your black background does not cover it. Go to your page layers on the right of the page, unlock the page background and pasteboard background by clicking on the orange lock then click on your black page background and enlarge to the limits of the page. You might also want to consider changing your pasteboard background color to black or any other color by dragging your chosen color over the white background. Next you will need to move your items on your page to where you want them. You may also want to right click your mouse while on the page background then click web properties at the bottom, then click on the website tab at the top and then click on the clip to page edges at the bottom in the other box. This last step will permit you to push items further out but the item needs to be touching the page background box to show when you preview and publish. Let us know how you make out.

    Ciao

    Thank you for your information. I am working on it. So far I have managed to screw up my test page but I was working with it
    via TeamView from my office. Later this afternoon I will have some time to dig back into it. Again, thanks for your interest and
    I will let you know how we do.

    I'll ask a Mod to do it for you; you do have Edit on a Post but for a short time only.
    Oops, that's me! Done.

    Update: Worked long time today and have been able to share to web blank pages full screen. Thats the good news.
    Problem now is even though the new pages look good when I check to browser they are blank except for the same size
    strip down the middle. Something is not allowing me to widen the area that will accept the stuff over the entire page ??
    Any good ideas. You have me on the way but after a couple hours I had to give up.

    Sorry to be a problem child

    Hi Wayne, if you were to upload a copy of your website (either .web or .xar) it would make the job easier to find your problem(s), as well more people could offer solutions.
