Can't resize code or plot panes

I can't move the divider between the code and plot panes in versions 2.06 and 2.07. I can move the divider in version 2.04.
On my computer, the code and plot panes are roughly equal in width. If I position the mouse very carefully there is a 1 pixel wide area where the resize cursor appears, but I can't move the divider.
Is this an intentional change or a bug?

Can you post a screen capture of your NCPlot window?
Thanks,
Scott

Here's a screen capture.
I discovered that the panes can be resized under 2.07 installed on my laptop, just not on my desktop machine.

David,
The center divider shouldn't be as wide as it is in your screen capture. What happens when you click "File / Reset Toolbars" ? Do the toolbars revert to their default state?
Thanks,
Scott

The toolbars revert to their default locations. The wide blue strip between the code and view panes is still present. I also tried:
1) uninstalling and reinstalling ncplot.
2) deleting the layout.tlb file in C:\Documents and Settings\David Scarbro\Application Data\NCPlot Software\NCPlot v2.07
3) deleting all keys under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VB and VBA Program Settings\NCPlot v2.07 in the registry.

David,
Well, it sounds like you've already tried the things I was going to suggest....
It seems like I've seen this before, but not for awhile - I can't seem to remember if I ever found a solution for it. Are you running the same OS on both the laptop and desktop machines?
Hang on, I just remembered something about an issue with the Windows DPI setting. Try this: Right click your desktop and click "Personalize". On the left side of the window that appears, click "Adjust font size (DPI)". If it's not already selected, select "Default scale". I think you will need to reboot your machine after this change, but try this and see if it fixes the problem.
Thanks,
Scott

Scott,
That was it. I can resize the panes when the DPI setting is normal (100%) or large (125%). My display was set to a custom scale (110%). Weird.
Thanks very much.
David
