Is there any way on God's little green earth to get Logos to load and fill screen like a normal program?

Since 5 I have had the problem with logos either being far too large for the screen size or, coming up in a tiny box, sometimes outside the screen area and one has to find it, expand it, then adjust it or 
"full screen" it.

Macbook pro 2015.

I can continue working this way, just like to check in every year to see if its been fixed and i'm not aware.

Thanks.

    Greetings Charles

    That certainly is a problem installation that you have there!

    I believe this was a bug that was evident around the time of Logos 5 but I haven't seen it reported on the forum recently.

    I do sometimes get a small window opening on iMac if I have closed logos (a rare occurrence) and if I have been using the program on the MacBook in the interim.

    Seeing as I use Logos a lot the program is rarely shut down between uses and when it is shut down for upgrades it is re-opened immediately.

    So thinking as I write and realising the last three sentences are pretty much my ruminating on the problem the only (unhelpful probably) advice I can give is stop shutting logos down.

    Logos won't let MacBook shut down if logos 7 is open.

    Odd!

    I just close the lid.

    The battery should last about 3 weeks if you do nothing else.

  • Personal quirk: using Logos 7 offline on a MacBook Air (MBA) for easier portability between places. Closing lid puts MBA to sleep immediately, opening lid has Logos 7 running.

    When want to download updates, then have to close Logos 7 first, connect to stable network, open Logos 7 (takes awhile to sync changes) followed by updating. When update and indexing complete, close Logos 7, turn off W-Fi, launch Logos 7 for offline use.

    Logos wiki has => Online Only with features that are not usable when working offline. Thankful for visual filter highlighting, search, guides, and tools working when offline.

    Personally try to avoid quit of Logos 7 when window(s) are minimized to dock (trying to avoid some subsequent sizing surprises).
