LO Writer Opens Document Past Top of Screen on Raspberry Pi How move with keyboard

English
#1

I am working on R Pi. When Writer opens document , the top of doc, including the menus are off the top of the screen. So the doc is unusable since I cannot access menu, as well as top of doc.

All new docs open with same problem.

Are there keyboard short cut keys for moving the doc down?
Are there keyboard short cut keys for cascading the open docs windows, as in Windows.

I know this was addressed before, but the answer given was for Windows. LO Writer Opens Document Past Top of Screen). The answer here is

Alt+Space.
M
Use arrow keys to move the window.

But that opens Read Only Content Dialog box

I have found answer to the question on line, but the are all wrong, such as alt with arrow keys.

Thank you for any help

Can you access some edge of the document border? If so, hover the mouse over this edge until the cursor changes to a resize arrow.

  1. Shrink the window to some smaller size (say half screen width and height).
    This does not move the top which is still off-screen, jut reduces window size.
  2. Save the document with Ctrl+S.
  3. Quit
  4. Reopen the saved document.

If menu bar is still unavailable, redo the procedure until the window is small enough to fit in your screen.

Thanks ajlittoz
But the point is I can not shrink the window height because the document borders are WAY off the screen. If I could access borders, I would able to fit onto screen.

That is why I wanted to move the doc; so I could access the borders.

So this is a question for your operating system. On a quick internet search I found several different keyboard shortcuts but I think Alt+F11 to maximise the screen might be the one.

Test in a visible window what is shown with Alt+Space (in the page referenced by @EarnestAl).
Some page says holding the Windows key + Arrows keys (but can’t test here).

Does holding ALT while clicking and dragging in the window work?

Which OS for the Pi?
Which kind of Pi?
What screen is connected?
