Window jumping with trackpad mouse movement

Working on my MacBook Pro (13"), Mac OS 14.2 (Sonoma) when I accidentally enlarged the Safari window. I resized the window (I thought) by using the 2-finger squeeze method on my trackpad, but the display is now too large for the screen, i.e., the entire display for one or multiple windows hangs off the visible edge of the screen and only comes back into view when I move the mouse; the display size remains static. This might be fine if the display would stay in one place but it moves every time I move the mouse - rather annoying! Have tried: (1) minimizing & maximizing the window, (2) restarting the laptop, (3) checked System Preferences to ensure the Drag Lock is not engaged, and (4) read other posts for suggestions without success. Perhaps missing the correct wording to find the fix. Any suggestions to fix this would be appreciated!

I found a solution to my request in another user's question (Asked by Yv1n 4mo ago in Displays)... Using "Control + 2-finger swiped down on the trackpad" has fixed my issue. Thank you for having so many responses archived and available for assisting us!
