After Effects windows too big for my screen.

Some windows like the "hotkeys" window do not display completely on my screen, I have to hide my task bar to see the "ok" button. There are other windows where I can't see the buttons even if I hide the taskbar. Is there a way to resize the "hotkeys" window?

Note the min system requirements. As Rick says above - I think you'll just have to live with it - or plug into a bigger screen.

i know this is an old thread but ill leave this here for anyone in the future (at least for windows users, not sure for mac): 

if your screen is just barely too small for the complete window to show up, press and hold (or right-click) any empty space on the taskbar, select Taskbar settings, select Taskbar behaviors, and select Automatically hide the taskbar (how to hide the windows taskbar)

this will give your screen just a litle bit more height, witch in my case was enough to solve the problem

My screen is too small, guess I'll have to buy a new one. Thanks for taking the time to answer.

What is the resolution of your screen (pixel width x pixel height) ?

My screen is 1366x768, by default. Haven't thought about checking the minimum requirements, smh.
