XFCE window cut in middle

Dear all,
I have installed the latest opensuse 12.2 with the xfce.
The problem is that half of the windows are cut in middle without having a scroll bar to scroll down and see the rest.

Two typical examples are shown here:

The schreenshots show exactly how the window looks like in the laptop. They are cut.

What should I do to fix that. What do you suggest me? Should I install graphics drivers, reinstall Xfce, throw laptop out of window?

I would like to thank you in advance for your help

Regards
Alex

You just have to resize it. Click and hold the title bar and move the window down a bit, then hover the cursor in a top angle and when the resize cursor shows up click and drag the window.

Also if you maximize the window it should fit the screen (but when you restore it it won't if you don't resize it).

For anyone still looking for a way to do this quickly in XFCE, you can actually set a custom save location or 'open with' action directly in the xfce4-screenshooter settings. It saves a lot of time if you're doing a bunch of them.
Also, if you just need to quickly crop a shot or a specific image for a post without opening up GIMP, I've been using https://www.thetoolapp.com/crop-out-image/ lately. It’s super lightweight and handy for quick adjustments.

No need to crop a shot if you use "Select a region", you select exactly what you want, and  Gimp is not necessary, a light image viewer such as Mirage, can crop or resize an image.
