FAQ #: 131
Columns on Screen are too big or too small, or completely hidden from view.
Certain screens use "grids", or rows and columns, much like a spreadsheet such as Excel. And, like Excel, the column widths are resizeable. Holding your mouse over the column divider in the heading row will allow you to drag the column divider and resize the columns. What happens is that sometimes, even unintentionally, users end up resizing columns so small that you can no longer see the dividers to expand them, or they resize a column so large it exceeds the total allowable width of the entire grid. Answers remembers the column sizes set by each user, which is normally a convenient option, but in the case where columns are resized inappropriately, it means that exiting the program (or Answers altogether) will not fix the screen.
In the affected program screen, click on the button or the menu bar selection listed below and select the option that says "Reset Grid Sizes to Default".
