Normal View Display Issue
A customer is having a problem with a Word document when in the Normal View.
When the document is opened, the screen appears to "jump" and then a left white space appears to the left of the text along with the scroll bar at the bottom. If you switch to Print Layout view or view the document in Print Preview, it appears as normal. If you print it, it appears as normal. The left and right margins are set to 0.6. Any ideas why this is happening when in Normal View? |

Normal View Display Issue
Is this perhaps the Style Area or Document Map?

at all, such as "Normal"? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "shel" wrote in message ... No, document map is not being used. -- shel "Suzanne S.

There is nothing in the white space. It is like a large margin on both the
left and right side but it only appears while in Normal view. -- shel "Stefan Blom" wrote: What is displayed in the white area you are describing?

Normal View Display Issue
You will ordinarily have a large white area to the right in Normal view. You
will have a white margin to the left if you have indented the text or if you have shifted the view to the left by Shift+clicking on the left arrow on the horizontal scroll bar (but this view will ordinarily not survive a change from Normal to Print Layout view and back). If the horizontal ruler is displayed, you should be able to tell something from where the margin and indent markers are. Is there any division between the text and this white area (a bar of any kind)? Are you sure you're not in Print Layout view with white space hidden? -- Suzanne S.

Normal View Display Issue
This is no ruler above this white section. The ruler appears as normal above
the text. I have changed back and forth between Normal view and Print Layout view so I know that this is in Normal view. Other documents that I open and switch to Normal view do not appear this way. -- shel "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: You will ordinarily have a large white area to the right in Normal view.

Don't have a place to post it. I could email it if necessary.

You can send the document to me. Since the problem occurs in only a single
doc, it's possible that looking at it would provide an answer. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "jam2drew" wrote in message ...
