While setting zoom, too large a number was entered by mistake, causing the screen to become excessively large and the vscode execution window to disappear.No matter how hard you try, you can't return to the default setting.Help - Removing and reinstalling the vscode leaves the enlarged window and does not disappear.
I want the first page of vscode (main page) to appear.
I tried to find the settings page, but there was no way. The Run window does not appear.
I'm on a monitor with 2560x1440 resolution, and when I maximize my VSCode instance the borders seem to go beyond the screen resolution, like this:
Any idea what could be the problem?
Google Chrome color picker isn't responding. I tried re-installing and resetting Chrome. How can this be resolved?
"Reset devtools" doesn't fix the issue. I am not entirely sure what the exact cause of this bug is, but the only fix available will need to be done in an update. I could not find it in the code itself, although I didn't spend much time looking.
The main issue is that when your dev tools are docked to the bottom of the window, then the color picker will not show. It will load though, but the interface wont show. More than likely it is either in the wrong layer, or has some issue with its actual display, as no errors are thrown.
Anyway, the reason resetting dev tools works is because the default setting is to dock the dev tools to the right side of the screen (presumably, their testing showed most users use a wide screen, multiple screen, setup; as a result, there is room on the side of the screen).
If you, like me, use dev tools docked to the bottom, then in order to see the color picker, you need to change the dev tool temporarily to be docked to the right side of the screen. This does not require the settings to be reset, just simply change the docking position.
if your color picker not working on your mouse pointer, then you have to change your display settings, if your display settings are at scale 125 or more then your color picker won't work in any of the browsers, if you change your display setting to 100% your color picker will automatically start working
Changing the window size brings back the color picker. If the window is full screen size, get out of full screen size.
The solution that worked for me is:
Get out of full screen mode (Un-maximize window).
Reduce the window size, specially the width.
Docking the dev-tools to right side, Scaling the display, Lowering display resolution also brings the color-picker back as all of these affects the browser window size. Hopefully this bug will be addressed soon.
Open the inspect elements -> go to settings -> Preferences -> scroll down to the end you will see button "Restore defaults and reload" -> click on it and it will work
I had the same issue on Chrome 108.0.5359.98 on Arch for a long time now.
The problem was fixed by simply unchecking one of the experiments in DevTools - Settings - Experimets - Enable color picking outside the browser window.
scale your display settings to 100 % and again re scale to 125%(recommended).
For me chaning the Devtools zoom size worked not the webpage size.
Ctrl + Mouse wheel zooms in or out on the dev tools dock.
The problem is quite simple. You are unable to use the color picker because you have enabled the mobile view or any other device view
and, you got the answer, you just need to close the device toolbar and you are good to go.
Hope that works 😃
I undocked the dev-Tools of chrome so that when pressing F12, another window opens, showing the DEV-Tools.
Problem: For I-don't-know-what-reason the window moves to a random position whenever it's opened. currently it moved so far, that its coordinates are fully outside of my desktop. It always moves at least somewhere nearly outside my desktop.
Question: How to restore the window positioni if it's not reachable for grabbing?
How to avoid this happening again?
I had the same problem, turns out it was because I had multiple monitors and one of them had display scaling set to 125%, when I set it back to 100% the developer tools windows always appeared where I could see it entirely.
You can change the display scaling by right clicking the desktop and then clicking Display settings, look for the setting Change the size of text, apps, and other items, if it's already at 100%, click on another monitor at the top and check again.
Of course you might not like having the monitor at 100% scaling (everything will be smaller), but at least it works!
This has happened to me a few times and it's annoying, whenever I take my laptop home my pgadmin editor stops working after resizing (I have more screens at work):
I have tried everything possible and the editor does not regain its correct shape and the "edit" area is impossible to get.
If you don't know the answer, do you have any suggestions for a good free SQL editor, now that we all know pgadmin is horrible...
Yes, it does get frustrating at times, especially when the monitor configurations are different at different places (say office vs home). So although one configuration works in office, when you take the laptop home, the Edit area is effectively missing, and the output window is at 100%.
You didn't mention the OS, but on windows I used to first Un-maximize the window, and then use to Right-Click on the Window (blue?) bar, that gave me the default MS Windows options (Move, Minimize, Maximize, Restore etc.). (These have been life-savers also when a window is completely out of the visible scope).
Once the menu is selected (nowadays using special keyboard combinations, i.e. a mouse isn't required), you could take the window further up and start to see a very small Query box open up. That way, you can now select the section divider and slide it down to reduce the Output Window size.
Painful, but worked most of the times.
