FrameMaker 2019 Resources Splash Page incorrect

I'm looking to findout what causes this and how can i mitigate such errors. Any Ideas? I'm not the only one with this problem...

There's several threads out there with the issue - the easiest way is to just follow this one & turn it off - https://community.adobe.com/t5/framemaker-discussions/framemaker-2020-can-t-get-rid-of-welcome-scree...

Thanks for the quick reply, but is there a way to just bring it back to its original, not out-of-scale state? I have users that still want to have certain parts of this splash screen accessible at that level... just curious if simply removing the screen altogether is the only solution.

You can also edit the welcome.htm screen to take out a line -
Klaus found this:

"By experiments I found that the culprit must be here:

 <h5><span id="DITA_Standard">(DITA-1.2)</span> <a id="FM_DITA_OPTIONS" href="http://fm-welcomescreen/?cmd=newxml-dita-options" class="">Change DITA Version</a></h5>

Wrapping this as XMl comment lets the Welcome screen work again.

Just using the context function menu Back does not provide a screen with the favourites/last used files which is cumbersome."

For some reason, that didn't seem to work for me... alternatively, when I see this screen, I inadvertently held down the [Shift] key and used the mouse wheel to scroll down one click and the whole page rezoomed to it's original intended state... why? I don't know, but all the functionality returned... weird.

Well, I think that the Welcome page is being displayed using IE11, so you may have stumbled into something with a browser zoom control that fixed it.
