Hello everyone, I have a problem with the global layout of all the windows in my project. The sidebar always appears, and I can't seem to make it disappear. I want the layout to adapt to 1920 x 1080 resolution, but I haven't been able to achieve that. Any suggestions on how to fix this issue? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/1/3/134eef4458fb2b711efa55de285172a64e7da24b.png) these are some of my configurations ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/3/c/3cd47fcd38b7e47798ca83fe49ac196d0fbdb12c.png) ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/a/a/aaf8f5f83feba70f7293cc2e3f61cedd4e45a195.png) greetings ---

You are launching in windowed mode, which includes the operating system's borders and menubar. Use full-screen mode if you don't want those at all. Meanwhile, if you are using Vision windows with explicit dimensions and they are not "Main Windows", then you are responsible for reducing their size for the docks you plan to use. Vision doesn't do this for you. ---

Vision doesn't do this for you. As a general rule of thumb for UI design, and _especially_ for Vision: **Do not** design to pixel perfect coordinates as though nothing will ever infringe upon your screen and nothing will ever change. Design to the desired _aspect ratio_ (less important in Vision) at the minimum practical resolution, and allow the layout system for your visualization platform to scale things _up_, which almost always works better than scaling _down_. ---

Thank you very much for your response, but could you be a bit more specific with what you're proposing? I always try to place the layouts with the "Maintain aspect ratio in center position" configuration as I show in the image, but still can't eliminate the side bars. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/1/2/12ca59256bd30cdc301ffe2b3419282a5bf63073.png) ---

It should allow the windows to shrink down to it. There is also a minimum size setting for each window, but it defaults to 0 x 0. May still be good to look for a sanity check. From a personal design standpoint, I set minimum size to 10 x 10 pixels smaller than the lowest resolution I want to support. Then I design the windows to fit that minimum size. ---

Thank you very much, Jordan. I followed the settings you suggested and it works perfectly. It is exactly what I needed and I appreciate your help.
