Tiny Scrollbars Make Page and Zoom Controls Unusable

The information in this article applies to:

 - Microsoft Publisher for Windows 95, version 3.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

If you customize your Windows 95 desktop and make the scrollbars too small,
you may  not be able to read the text or use the buttons in Publisher's
zoom and page controls.

CAUSE
=====

Publisher's zoom and page controls are on the same line (and the same size
as) the horizontal scrollbar. When you make the scrollbar area smaller, the
zoom and page controls are compressed, too.

RESOLUTION
==========

To change the size of your scrollbars:

1. Click the Windows Start button, point to Settings, and click Control
   Panel.

2. Double-click the Display icon.

3. Click the Appearance tab.

4. Click the scrollbar on the diagram (or select Scrollbar from the Item
   list).

5. Type a number in the scrollbar Size box. The Windows default is 16. If
   you set this below about 8 (this is partially dependent on your display
   resolution), you won't be able to use the zoom or page controls in
   Publisher.

6. Click the OK button at the bottom of the dialog box.
