image window size

I have all palettes and windows floating.

Opening images, zooming images, the image window always has the wrong size. Either its bigger then the image and shows gray areas around or it is too small showing just a portion of the image. I already set the option √adjust window size, but that changes nothing.

What to do so the window size is always just as much as the image (as long as it is smaller then the display)?

And by the way, if nothing is open, there comes always such an annoying "startpage" but I already siabled that in preferences and it comes anyway. How do I get rid of that?

    Correct answer gener7

    Uncheck "Disable the Home Screen" and check "Use Legacy New Document" Interface. It should get rid of that extra window.

    Thanks, gener7, good input.

    But unfortunately no, even quit PSD, and no difference with or without "disable home screen", use legacy new doc interface

    (its still coming up like in my screenshot no. 1, from where I can take out the image itself and get it like screen no. 2.)


    Try Window menu, and uncheck Application Frame at the bottom. The problem is that even when you uncheck tabs, the image windows can still be tabbed.

    In fact turning off the Application Frame was how I got the single window.

    Hi Thhurli,

    Sorry for a bad experience with Photoshop, let us help make this right.

    Could you please let us know the exact version of Photoshop and operating system you're working on?

    Also, could you please try resetting the preferences of Photoshop and let us know if it helps with the issue?

    Hi and thanks for your post.

    I just installed a new machine, OSX 10.14.2

    Everything is new. I just downloaded Photoshop 20.0.1.

    Nothing on the machine before. resetting preferences make no difference.

    For the last, in Preferences > General, set the check box for "Disable the Home Screen".


    Of course first thing I did, like shown in the screenshots. To no effect.
