Page size help please

ampersand

Suddenly, my page size thingy isn't doing its job.
I refer to the centre of the 3 top right squares.
I click this middle one to reduce page size, if I want to refer to other desktop ikons, but now, although the page symbol alters, it doesn't actually happen.
Any help will be much appreciated, although i won't see it until tonight now.
Many thanks, as always.

It took me a while until I understood what you meant

Click the symbol and move your mouse to the lower right corner of the window until the pointer changes. If the pointer doesn't change, click the symbol again and move the mouse to the lower right corner again. Then click the [STRIKE]right[/STRIKE] left mouse button and keep it pressed while you move the mouse. When the window has the right size, release the button. From now on your "page size thingy" should work again

Also, Windows+D should minimize all windows...

Thankyou tronator - unfortunately, your 1st para. suggestions do not rectify problem.
Final sentence - don't know what this means. How do I find/hit Windows+D please?

Press down the Windows key on your keyboard, the one with the Windows logo on it ... and also press the letter D.

Sorry, mixed up the mouse button. It's the left one

Just tried again tronator - still no joy.
Hitting windows + D removed everything! - back to my screenpic.

I apparently have Golfer's Elbow[don't play. needless to say]-sounds jokey, but pain is intense, so have swapped to left hand mouse[am left-handed anyway]and click reversal accordingly.
Have tried your method both ways many times.
Although the page symbol changes from 1>2, the only way I can now move a page out of the way is to have it on single page, then click and drag headline bar.
