I still can't make myself use that resolution, but have set this 17" LCD flat panel at 1024 x 768. (though recommended is 1280 x 1024) I like it better than the 800 x 600 on this one, which almost screamed at me, it was so huge! But still, if *you're* using 1280 x 1024, these tables must not be wider than 6 inches on your monitor; and you HAVE to have enlarged your font for viewing, haven't you? I haven't, but the text is considerably smaller than it was at the 800 x 600 resolution I was using on the 15" LCD flat panel monitor.
THIS particular monitor was actually set where I didn't have to do anything to adjust color, brightness or anything!
They are a little over 7 and 1/2 inches wide. At first it looked very odd, but I am used to it now. Only problem is, when I make graphics now I have to be very careful to keep them small enough so that they don't stretch out my tables which I still configure for people using 800x600. That took a little getting used to.
and you HAVE to have enlarged your font for viewing, haven't you?
No. The font is smaller, but it's easily readable.
