I have an annoying thing going on at the moment where I click on a desktop icon ie a calendar and across the bottom of the image, there is a bar with the other icons showing up as tiny pics which one can pick if desired. Now I find this a nuisance as it cuts off some of the icon I have clicked on - is there any way of stopping this happening?
Any help really appreciated.

A screenshot would be good. I'm on Win11 Version 22H2 Build 22621.674 and can't replicate the issue. If I click once on a desktop I get a green check mark at upper right corner of the icon. If I have a program open the icon on the Taskbar will have a blue line under it about the same width, if minimized the line is much smaller.

Thanks Berton I have tried taking a snip of the issue but it is not saved on the desktop to send as an attachment. I will try to get a screenshot by some other method.

So far this site has allowed doing the WinKey+Shift+S to copy then Paste, another site requires saving first then post the attachment. I just click it in the Notification Area to open Snip and Sketch then Save, usually in Pictures.

Ok mate have tried that and the only way I can see the icon/thumbnail as a full view is to hit the % option at the top of the picture and the annoying bar drops out of sight beneath the opened picture so I will have to do that instead.

Hello Berton if you happen to see this post then I have found a solution - just by making the bottom border of an icon a little larger by hovering over the edge and dragging it down makes the bar drop down below the thumbnail I have open or will open. This works with all the icons I have on my desktop. ;-)

Pardon my jumping in. I'd still really like to see what this looks like as I'm having a hard time visualizing this. Any chance of using your phone to snap a pic of the screen?

What is your default image viewer?

The mention of film strip reminds me of the occasional view of that as the icon for a video but can't otherwise replicate the problem.

Hi,
Interesting I've not seen this
22h2 did add a new app called video clip I believe, I personally just removed it.

Use the print screen key and open paint and use paste.
should also be able to paste in a reply here.

If it's the new Photos app, clicking on the image makes the filmstrip fall away...

Well thanks for the replies folks this film strip looks to be something I am stuck with and resizing appears to be the only way of getting rid of it. I was hoping to find a registry hack to stop it but searching for that has come up with nothing just means extra clicks to have just the desktop snip picture appear without it. What Edwin shows is what I get if that is a desktop snip perhaps I should save my snips somewhere else?

Any image will render that way in the new Photos app, doesn't matter what kind or where it is!
Try some other viewer software.

More often than not, MS's apps are, more so than many others, unnecessarily convoluted and complicated...,
the fastest image viewer, (view only!), via mouse hover, already resides in an internal rendering engine, slideshow and all...

Ok Edwin I have found yet another work around and that is to right click off to the side of the snip picture and hit Hide Filmstrip from the drop down options. So I shall have to stick with that one mate. It is one more click I suppose although there must be a setting in the system somewhere that will turn it off but am darned if I can find it.
