Can you post before and after screenshots so we can better understand your issue?

This looks like it has to do with the placement of your anchor. If you look at the bottom of the screenshot you'll notice that the scroll bar along the bottom has shifted along the horizantal axis.

I would guess, based on this screen shot, that you have your anchor placed with an X position larger than 0.

Muse will always attempt to put any anchor whos link has been clicked in the top left corner. If it can't, it will scroll the page so the anchor is as close to the top left corner as it can be.

If you want to avoid horizantal scrolling with your anchors, set the X position to 0 or drag your anchor so it is aligned with the left of your page.

If this dosen't solve your issue, please send your .muse file and a link to this topic to muse-support@adobe.com

If your file is larger than 20MB use a filesharing service like SendThisFile or Adobe SendNow.

Edit: I recieved your file. Taking a look.

Thanks T.J! I greatly appreciate the prompt response, and I love Muse

Yours is a slightly different problem. It's a combination of an illusion caused by the pinned menu and a small browser window.

Without getting into it too much, you should find that it will work if you give your anchors a very low number like -500

For everyone on this thread and any future readers:

Sorry for the confusion. This looks like an area that could use some improvement in Muse. I have added this to our list of possible feature improvements.

In the meantime just keep in mind that if you want to restrict your anchors to only move up and down, give it an X value of 0 or lower. It's affected by your design and layout so keep going lower until it works.

I have tried that also - and nothing is working -

Ok, I took a look at your file and I am posting this with the assumption that you're are talking about your umbrella links that take the user back to the top of the page.

Setting these to x: -100 should solve your issue. Doing this will put it in the far upper left corner of your page. It is possible that when this failed to work for you last time you tried, it was because you were looking at a cached (archived) version of your site. Hold down Shift when you click the refresh button to force the browser to load in the newest data.

Let me know if you are still having problems or if you were talking about a different anchor.

I'm still unsure of the effect that you are aiming for, so we may be miscommunicating based on that. Did making it -100 bring it closer to what you want to do? Is it almost there but not quite?

If so, just lower the number until it works. Try say -200 or -500.

If this isn't the case then I'll need a better definition of what you want to do. Post some screenshots and use Photoshop or another editor to mark them up so I can see what you are trying to do.

Ok, so to clarify things, your content is not shifting to the left, rather your scroll bar (along the bottom) is moving to the right. This is happening because the browser window you are using to look at your content is too small for the content.

When a browser window is made small enough, you will see that the bottom horizantal scroll bar is moving to the right in the same way on your current site, so it is behaving in the same manner.

When an anchor is triggered, the browser will do it's best to put the anchor in the upper left corner. If the browser can't move the scroll bars far enough to achieve that, it will move them to their limits.

Again, the solution is to set the anchor's X position to a low value. I know you said you've tried everything but the screenshot above shows that the anchor's position is at an x value that is higher than what you need. If it wasn't then the scroll bar along the bottom would have not moved.

Move the anchor to -500. If this does not work, save your file and send it in again. There may be another issue that I missed.

I may have been premature with saying that this sorted my problem. I made these corrections and i still get the exact same overhang as before. Is there anything else I am missing? or can it be solved?

The issue still persists in preview, and Firefox, Safari, and IE. with the exact same replication of issue.

I have tried 'Save as' new site, restarting muse, etc.

Please advise.

Many thanks.

From Preview:

I posted the Problem I was having above and continued to try find solutions including changing my design which was not what I wanted. However I'm like a dog with a bone when it comes to trying to solve problems and dont know when to give up.

On looking at the format of my text box and stroke settings I noticed that if I selected the botom text box and dragged it upwards to a position less than what was required for the text a blue dotted line appears at the dropped position but does not let you reduce the size of the text box to less than what is required for the text included. (see picture)

Now after this I previewed my site and it appears to resolve my issue with the overhangs I recieved by the box stroke before (see picture below). I dont know what it is that I have done or if it is a viable solution, or even what the initial issue was that caused this so please let me know your thoughts on this and if you have a better educated solution I would be much obliged if you could share them.

Many thanks once again.
