Hello Steve,

Welcome to the PhD forum

Are you able to click on the "Show Panel" button in the top left corner? Then click Restore (beside it) & all should be well. That's the regular way to switch from full-screen mode.

No, that button or buttons are not there. The top and bottom of the image are at the monitor edges. The left and right edges of the image are not flush with the left and right borders of the monitor but there are black strips that are flush to the edges.

I've tried clicking in the top left but to no avail.

I've also noticed that there is no right-click menu of the mouse. Pressing the F1 key does open up the help screen, so at least in that sense, the keyboard is responsive.

I'm on a Windows 7 machine, two monitors. The other monitor is fine and free of Photo Director.

I am having the identical problem.

ESC-Key? Maybe?

No buttons or combination of buttons (that I have tried) works. No right mouse button menu. Nothing is visible on the screen apart from the image which covers the whole screen. I can close the program using Windows task manager but when I start the program again the same full size image appears.

I cannot confirm that behaviour. There seem to be strange things around Photodirector:

1. unplug all USB devices. I know, that should not affect the full screen, but try it.


2. have you deleted (save backup, please) of the ini-file in 'c:\users\YOURNAME\AppData\Local\CyberLink\PhotoDirector'?

I resolved the problem by playing around with my dual screen configuration. I disabled my secondary screen & restarted Photodirector. I was able to see the regular screen, exited PD, restarted my computer & re-enabled my secondary monitor.
Thanks for the tip on the ini file. I'll save a copy of of it after a normal shutdown which I should be able to use if I have another problem. Windows 7, HP Omen Pro 15, Power Director 16, Photo Director 9
