texmaker
I have a very strange phenomenon. The option window of texmaker is too big for my screen (just this window…). When I want to resize it, there is no problem with horizontal rescaling, but when I try to reduce the vertical size of this window, in order to reach the "ok" button, then the window suddenly disappear under the screen. I have to hold & click "window + shift + top arrow to make it reappear…
Is someone has an explaination about this and mostly a solution?
Fifth option from bottom in the preferences panel.
This version can undock the viewer (untick embed), which may not be present (or possibly moved) in some versions. the version shown is 3.0.2.
Notes Following Texmaker's documentation the character ! represents the current directory so the idea is to use a user command explorer.exe ! (under windows or equivalent for other platforms). Indeed, if i try command pdflatex !/myfile.tex where myfile.tex is a file in current directory the command works fine and i get the file compiled but I can't get it to work with explorer.exe
Here is a solution (under windows)
Make a batch file myexplorer.bat with contents:
explorer.exe %~dp1
User-->User commands-->Edit user commands<PathOfMyBatch>\myexplorer.bat %.tex

I had the same problem. Changing the screen resolution is one option, but you can also change the setting "Size of text, apps... " to 100% in the displays menu (from the default 150%), resulting everything being much smaller. As a result you can see the entire options window, but of course everything else is much smaller, too. I actually prefer that to the original setting but I guess it's personal ;).
