Question

Programs opening off screen

Currently this is happening to After Effects, but I've had the same problem in Premiere and never had a fix for it until it somehow magically fixes itself; my windows keep opening off-screen. I've tried scaling down my display, can't find how to zoom out of the window, and it's really frustrating that either adobe or apple has no reset or send-to-center option.. any ideas? It's so annoyingly out-of-reach..

thanks.

    The way I fixed this issue for Mac was I downloaded a third party window snap tool.

    Magnet

    BetterSnapTool

    And it gave me these options. I hit "bottom half" and it resized it for me. Hope that helps!

    Go to the configuration of your GPU from the system configuration and disable the extended desktop, I think that is what you have activated.

    I'm having the same issue with both Premiere Pro and After Effects. byroncortezh​, are you referring to the system configuration of the Adobe program or of the computer platform? I tried looking into the general preferences of Adobe and do not see extended desktop options.

    I refer to the Operating System, that is, in the Windows or macOS preferences of the operating system that you use. It has nothing to do with Adobe preferences. Before doing so, close all the applications that you have open.

    Hello,

    Are you talking about AE for Win or for Mac?
