Well the Ctrl- didn't work. I tried settings and small was too small and default was 1/2 rank too big. But today I ran some clean up apps and now things are running smooth and the board is good. Thanks guys!
Actually, the application that allows us to insert a board into a posting has three board-size choices: tiny, incredibly large and impossibly large. In my somewhat jaded opinion, there really should be a fourth choice somewhere in between tiny and incredibly large.
My board is half a rank too big for my screen. How can I make it smaller? p.s. I'm a computer dummy so I hope it's simple. Thanks
