Every time I try to "Fit To Window" in Quark I get the "Spinning Wheel Of Death" and have to force quit out of Quark. I am running a Mac G5 and Quark 6.5. I have tried throwing away the preferences and am still having the issue. Someone please help!

Thanks
 
What do you mean Fit to window? I am unaware of any such thing. Do you mean fit IN window? That would fit the copy onscreen so you can see it all.


Or do you mean fit to box? where you want a picture to fit in a box? What are you trying to do and what keys, etc. are you using to do it?

If you are on a Mac with Quark 6.5, draw a text box and choose a frame, and if Yearbook, Certificate Deco Shadow are missing then this may be what you need to do.
Quit Quark then go to Applications folder then find your QuarkXpress folder. Inside the QuarkXPress folder there is a folder named For System, open that folder up and inside is an item called QuarkXPress Components double click on that icon and then choose your Quark folder for the installation and that will install the missing borders the initial installation did not install plus a lot of other components. This will install those missing frames and also seems to help with the highlighted text hanging up.
You will then be able to use these borders, Yearbook, Certificate, Coupon, Deco Shadow, Deco Plain, Maze, Ornate, Op Art1 and Op Art2.
Hope this helps.

I think KATClaw is referring to pressing Command+0 (zero) or CTRL+0 (zero) which will fit the current pasteboard to the window, i.e. zoom or unzoom the page.

Sorry I can't help with the actual problem, just trying to point people in the right direction.

All I could suggest is that you move your page elements to a new document and see if the problem still occurs.
If it does then systematically remove each element and try again until it rights itself.
Can't guarantee that will work though.
