This isn't really related to coding or programming, but when I scroll in a Windows Application, such as Microsoft Word or Notepad++, the view becomes very distorted. Please refer to the preview below.

The problem has been occurring for several days now but was never an issue previously. It seems to occur in all text editors I use, seen in Microsoft Word in the above preview but also observed in Notepad++.
If someone has experienced similar issues or can advise me with this problem, I would be very grateful. System specs are as below.

Thanks in advance!
UPDATE: This seems to be an issue with my scrollpad. The problem does not occur if I scroll by dragging the scrollbar or if I scroll using a USB mouse with a scroll wheel. Any suggestions?

Working with 16:9 screens, I always have an empty space to my right in Forms Designer.
On the other hand, this Component Tray is always overlapping the forms.
Is there a way to undock or move it to fill that wasted space?
I haven't found any other questions regarding this.
Thank you in advance and please excuse my bad english.
Edited: obviously I know I can drag its edge to fold the thing down.
Finally I created my own Add-In to dock that ComponentTray to the right as well as sorting its components alphabetically.
If you, like me, want to use your wide screen in all its glory, please post a comment below and gladly I'll give you all details.
After the testing phase, I'll upload the thing to VS Gallery.
EDIT: Here's the link to the VS extension. Feel free to use and enjoy it.

that's somewhat embarrassing, but I seem to have changed something in my inspector in Safari 9/El Capitan. Each event, be it browser resizing or CSS transitions, is highlighted red while the event occurs. And I can't find a way to turn it off. Can someone give me a hint? :-)
As far as I understand this should not be a default setting, as one of my Macs has it, the other does not.
Cheers and thanks in advance

"Fixed" it. In the elements browser, there is a button "Disable colored blinking" (or similar, mine is German "Farbiges Blinken aktivieren/deaktivieren").
Hi i am trying to replicate A UItabbar being hidden and showing while scrolling much like how the pinterest and google + apps do it. I found a quick emulation on git hub by tony million https://github.com/tonymillion/ExpandingView . it works great but theres a problem and its huge for me. if you rapidly scroll up and down you will see a white bar at the bottom while the tab bar is hidden. if you scroll normally everything works fine. but as a programmer i don't want to worry about that white space on the bottom showing up. I searched around and noticed others were getting the same problem. if theres anyway this can be fix i would greatly appreciate it. thank you.
I'm building a web app to design and animate simple 3d scenes using the Away3D library, but the design of the interface itself is built around a scrolling menu which takes up the whole height of the screen.
The problem is, on OSX browsers have a silly quirk where if the page is scrolled when it has already gone as far as it can, the page can be dragged slightly further, revealing a brushed metal background. This looks nice and whatnot, but it pretty much ruins scrolling in a swf object. I use flash builder and export to safari, which is just about useable, if pretty annoying (especially with a mac touchpad, which can give a much higher scroll delta than a mousewheel can), but when I open my app in firefox/chrome the same effect happens, and causes the app and browser to slow down drastically.
I've found code which uses ExternalInterface to stop the swf sending mouse events to the page, but they all seem to disable detection in the swf as well, and I can't find anything else which help. If anyone knows of a solution you'll be saving me from throwing a few months' work away for what seems like a suspiciously unnecessary drawback to Flash on OSX!
Thanks in advance if anyone can help
Figured it out, in case anyone else gets stuck with this:
The feature's called elastic scrolling, if you're running a flash/flex app which takes up all the browser space you can simply set body{overflow: hidden;} in page CSS and it'll work just fine. Obviously, this disables any kind of page-scrolling - I believe you can turn it back on inside nested elements though.
Hope this helps someone anyway!
I'm trying to take screenshots of all open windows, also the minimized ones. Currently I'm using this code:
http://www.developerfusion.com/code/4630/capture-a-screen-shot/
But it doesn't work for minimized windows and the areas where there is a Glass effect since Vista like the explorer title bar are black. Can anyone help me out?
My objective is to create something similar to Flip 3D; it would be great if someone also knew something about how to create a live preview.
For the glass effect areas: I think it doesn't work because those areas may be drawn with some strange DirectX method instead of normal GDI.
For the minimized windows problem: if a window is minimized, its DC isn't painted (conceptually, it doesn't even have a reason to exist); you should try to send to such windows a WM_PRINT message, asking them to paint themselves on the DC you'll provide them. The problem with this approach is that not all the windows handle correctly WM_PRINT.
I've found the API that is used for the taskbar previews a.s.o.:
DWM Thumbnail Overview
Pretty awesome, it even allows you to do live previews!
