How can I resize the emulator window?

When I run app and the emulator loads it is almost too big for my monitor on my laptop. Should I change my display settings or resize the window in some way?

Hi Timothy,

What I do is start the emulator with the AVD manager. That gives me the option of setting the size. I typically choose a height of 9 or 10.
