It doesn't fit screen on 800 by 600 display

I have 800 by 600 as my chosen display for my 17.9 inch lcd screen. Anything greater is harder to read.

When you use Constructor in this setting, however, the bottom bits are off the screen. Can you do some slight readjustment somehow? It works fine on the next highest setting.

Instead of having the display on 800x600, you could just increase the default font size in the windows theme options.

Right-click on the desktop, then click on Properties.

Click on the Appearance Tab.

At the bottom of that is the Windows Font Size. Change it from Normal to Large
and that should do it for ya.

Greetings!

Wolf:
Yes, Constructor was really designed with 1024x168 in mind. However when you start Constructor in 800x600, what if you then go to Layout->Layouts->Constructor Mini and then back to Layout->Layouts->Constructor Default to force a refit of the layout? If that works then be sure to save your new layout.

The other alternative is to build a new layout from scratch under 800x600. Choose Layout->New Layout and then start adding panes and Forms as you'd like.

I hope that helps.
