  1. reducing calculator screen


    My calculator screen takes up every corner! I can't even see the right hand corner that has the prompts, it is very
    irritating since I have to leave my work to access the calculator (guess I have extra equipment on the desk) Can someone help PLEASE ?

  2. Cannot resize calculator

    Hey there,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community forums.

    I have just tried with my calculator and it can be shrunk to a reasonable size. Please can you post a screen capture of the Apps size on your device.

    How are you reducing its size?

    Regards,

    Function of excel data analysis toolpak

    My statistics professor wants us to calculate the Mean and Standard deviation using the data analysis toolpak. Our grade will be reduced if we use other methods to solve the calculations. I cannot figure out how to do this. Do these functions exist in
    the toolpak?

    Thank you

    When you say the calculator takes up every corner, does it look like my screenshot? If yes, can you click on the minimize/maximize icon (middle icon in upper right corner)? Do you see the word "Calculator" in upper left corner? If yes, you could try right-clicking > minimize.

  5. I can not see the upper right hand corner prompts! and I don't know how to reduce. Left hand corner has 3 horizontal lines, and bond print ​STANDARD

    See if this helps:

    You could also try clicking on "minimize" if "size" is grayed out or otherwise not active.

  7. marsmimar, I appreciate your efforts to correct this, but it isn't the sides making the screen too big, it's the very top, where "calculator" is in left hand corner, and the three prompts in right hand corner, (where you have the red arrow pointing, I can't see that corner)

    OK, here's more... I pushed mouse cursor up to the top, "calculator" is shown, but the right hand corner only has the "close" button, no size adjustment prompt appears, even if I pass the mouse over the area.

    reducing calculator screen

    When you type Alt+spacebar do you get the pop up menu? Can you minimize? Can you post screenshot of what the calculator screen looks like? Sorry for my confusion. *Redface

    Just to clarify, you have to hold down the Alt key while clicking the spacebar. That should let you click on "size" which will change the cursor to the 4-pointed compass. Then you should be able to follow the steps in my post # 4 above.

    There are several ways to post a screenshot. This tutorial explains how:
