Question

PS opens images in window way too large

Hello All,

I'm experiencing this for the last litle while.

I open images from Bridge in PS ... the first two open as normal "Normal View" (with frame/window) ... the third one opens with a window much too large.

Zooming will only resize the image - not the frame. I can only reduce the window frame to the appropriate size of the image by going through the three view options and is then normal. (hitting F 3x)

Preferences are set to UI 100% ... I tried Auto and other things ... to no avail.

Strangely it only happens by app. the third image I open, while other images are already open.

(in the screen shot they are hidden behing the huge window)

I have the latest updates of PS and Windows

The images I experience this with are about 100 -200 MB, PSD, 16 bit

System: Windows 10 PRO, 64 bit, 32 GB RAM, Nvidia 2060, Intel i9 

 

Thanks

Check the preferences for Photoshop UI scaling.

Hello,

thanks for your reply, but it does not happen in Windows - only in PS ... and not with all images.

UI preferences are set to 100% - again the first two images open fine - only the third one is screwed up.

Any difference between opening from Bridge vs. opening directly from PS? 

In Preferences>General, do you have them set for Auto show the Home Screen on or off? 

As for Zoom, check the preferences for Zoom Resizes Windows which as the name implies, will affect that window size.
