Ok, a simple (I hope) question! When I cmd enter to go from full screen to windowed mode, the eve client essentially stays the same size but shifts down and to the left and thus off the bottom and edge of the screen? Does anyone know how I can reduce its overall size so that I can see it all?

Thanks

The only way you can do it within the game is to run windows, Mac users don't rate high enough to get that feature

The only other solution is to change your resolution to make the game slightly smaller than your monitor.

Switchresx can help in some cases as well.....(Just google it)

Found a better way to use EVE "windowed" mode:

You can make it to play well with Lions' Full Screen Apps using SIMBL and MenuAndDockless http://moapp.tumblr.com/post/2558804142/menuanddockless

Its a system wide modification to allow not yet updated Cocoa Apps to simulate Lion's full screen mode. Its a bit buggy sometimes but its the best solution I have found so far! (tried SwitchResX / MenuBarHider (SIMBL) combo before).

Hope this helps everyone!!!
