A webpage I use to display the data for my solar panels uses Adobe Flash and it used to display OK, but several versions of Firefox ago it became truncated on three sides so you can't see the whole thing. I can post a picture that shows all three browsers displaying this page and it is cropped only in Firefox. I'm running the latest Firefox (27.0.1) and Adobe Flash. This has been going on for at least one year. I don't notice the problem when I'm at home, but only when I'm at work. In both cases I have dual 1920x1200 displays. I have tried turning off hardware assist, but that changes nothing.

This can happen at certain zoom levels. Could you try resetting zoom to the default level using either

  • Ctrl+0 (that's a zero) or
  • View menu > Zoom > Reset

If you already are using the default level, does it make any difference if you adjust the zoom larger or smaller by holding down the Ctrl key and tapping + or - (enlarge and shrink, respectively)?

I had tried the cntl-0 before with no change, but restoring the menus and using view->Zoom->Reset did the trick. There is no way to zoom on this page, so I'm not sure how it ever became zoomed in, but resetting it the trick. Thanks!

I tried going through the flash local storage and removing the 419 bytes kept for this webpage, but it didn't change anything. Good try though.
