Go to the Level tab, then click on either Set Top or Set Bottom. Then, click where you want the new top/bottom of the camera (the yellow box) to be.

That should fix yer problem.

Uh... ok...

I don't see why doing what I posted requires a re-install of FOT...

Here's what you do, Archie:
  1. Open the map (mission) you'r working on.
  2. Left Click on the "Level" field up near the top, right hand portion of the screen.
  3. Here you should see two buttons marked "Set Top" and "Set Bottom".
  4. Click on the "Set Top" and click to the left and above the current camera boundary (yellow line). If you're not satisfied with where the line went, you will have to click on the button again before you try to reposition the line again.
  5. Do the same for the are the right and above the current map boundary.
  6. Now move left and below, substituting the "Set Bottom" button in the instruction above for both sides of the bottom.
A word of warning: The camera boundaries can be tricky. Sometimes they will not go where you want them to, often setting the left side to the right of what was originally the right side of the camera boundary. You will see what I mean, and you will be frustrated by it. Just hit "Ctrl + Z" to Undo if that happens and try, try again.
