Display Settings: How to Never Scroll Right
I want to change my display settings in order to alleviate the need to right-scroll for many webpages. My display settings are as follows:
Monitor - Samsung B2330HD
Resolution - 1680 x 1050
Orientation - Landscape
Custom DPI Setting - 165% (using WinXP-style DPI scaling)
In order for me to view/read most pages now I have to right-scroll all of the time. Not that big of a deal but I have MS which makes my right hand fairly numb all of the time. My dexterity and tactile sensitivity is reduced by approx. 75% all of the time.
I have used ClearType and am happy with my selection as well as the text size but my life would be much easier if I could reduce the need to right-scroll.
Thank you for reading!

Can we assume that you have your browser window maximized on that monitor?

Get another monitor and extend the browser window over onto it.

Try Ctrl - (minus key) to zoom in on the page a bit, and see if that helps. Ctrl 0 will reset things to default if you don't like it.

Actually, Ctrl & + (Plus) zooms. I'll play with this for a bit. Thanks.

Ctrl + zooms in, which is likely to make your situation worse. That's why I didn't mention it. Ctrl - zooms out, Ctrl 0 resets things to normal.
