14" high-resolution monitor?

I am looking for a small monitor with a similar-size screen and resolution for my T60p but I'm unable to find a 14" monitor with a resolution any higher than 1024x768 (woefully inadequate anymore). It's difficult doing much at that resolution nowadays and the 15" I have takes up too much desk space (the 14" I found are twice as expensive).
Has anyone seen 14" monitors higher than that resolution ever? I've discovered SXGA (1280x1024) would be perfectly adequate (my T60p's 14" monitor is 1400x1050) but I don't understand why monitors at that size and resolution either don't exist are are so hard to find while millions of laptop monitors at that size and resolution were manufactured. Why wouldn't they make a same-size 2nd monitor for them? It's odd looking at a small screen and a supplemental large screen, and kind of unnecessary.

Hello,
It has been my observation that 8-10 years ago, laptops tended to come with higher resolution screens than comparable, standalone LCD monitors.  I am guessing this was likely due to the high cost of the LCD screens.
Perhaps you could purchase a larger LCD monitor, with a stand that allows you to rotate the screen 90°.  While the aspect ratio might seem a little odd (9:16, etc.) at first, this actually works quite well for some applications, such as web browsing, email and writing, where the screen more accurately mimics the geometry of a page in portrait mode.

  • Why is there no scaling for high resolution monitors in Adobe Bridge CC?

  • Portege R930 - BSOD when connecting high resolution monitor to HDMI port

    Hello.
    I have the Portege R930 (pt331a-01w001) running window 7. Everything on the laptop works as expected, however when I plug the laptop into a high resolution monitor (2560x1440) via the HDMI port I get blue screen of death.
    I can use the HDMI port to connect to my 1080p LCD TV and my work monitor which is a lower resolution and it works ok.
    I have tried multiple cables and different monitors of the same resolution.
    Can anyone assist?

    Hello,
    Yes that is correct. When my laptop is connected to a monitor with a lower resolution that 2560x1440 (such as my work monitor (1680x1050) or my TV (1080p)) everything works as expected.
    Once I plug it into the 2560x1440 monitor I get BSOD.
    The monitor only has a DVI-D Dual link port, so I am using a HDMI to DVI-D Dual link cable to connect the laptop HDMI port to the monitor.
    I was getting this fault with the original display driver (not sure of the version), I then updated to the Toshiba driver (v8.15.10.2712) and also tried the Intel Driver (9.17.10.2932) and still get the same problem.

  • Increase After Effects System text for high resolution monitor

    I just purchased a high resolution monitor.  The panels and system text (rendering queue, project panel, etc.) in After Effects is now just about microscopic.
    Is there anyway to adjust the default text size on all the panels?

    No, unfortunately not. This stuff is part of Adobe's specific UI libraries and cannot be changed. The main application menu should respect your settings though, as should file dialogs and a few text input fields, if that's any consolation. If possible, simply define a user preset in your graphics card settings that switches screeen resolution and system dpi when launching AE or any other Adobe app. Good monitors have good scaling chips, so it should not look all too shabby and you can always go back full res for pixel precision when needed...

  • Panel not resizing for high-resolution monitors

    Received this in an email from a person using an HTML5 panel:  "What I'm seeing on a high resolution monitor (3840x2160) is that the panel doesn't resize to fit its container."
    The container for the panel is appears to have scaled up, but the panel itself is tiny within this container.
    The pixel dimensions on which the panel was built (and what's coded into the HTML for the panel) makes the panel the correct size on "normal" monitors, but it doesn't appear to up rez for high-resolution monitors.  The user can scale the rest of Photoshop's menus and panels using some interface in the OS, but the panel doesn't scale.
    Anyone have any thoughts on this weather or not it's possible to get panels to up-rez for high-resolution monitors?
    Thanks.

  • Got High resolution Monitor but everytning​s too big

    I just got a bigger monitor with higher resolution.  For some reason, the block diagrams are screwed up.  It seems like everything got bigger!  What's the deal, and how do I fix it?
    Thanks

    Go to the windows control for Display properties and select font size=normal.
    You can also change the default diagram font for new VIs in LabVIEW, but it won't affect existing VIs. You would need to e.g. select all objects on the diagram and press "ctrl-" (control+minus) a few times to make the current fonts all smaller manually. I don't recommend this though.

  • High Resolution Monitor AND TV

    I have a 15 inch Powerbook G4 and do a lot of Digital Photography. I want to get a larger(approximately 27 inch) display so I can view and share the photographs more easily with MAXIMUM resolution. I am wondering if I can do this and also watch High Def Cable TV on the same display? If yes, How?

    Welcome to the family, thanks for closing your own thread.
    I still can't figure out why the 'drop shadow' and 'motion blur' checkboxes had the same sharpening effect without rendering. < </div>
    They force another level of RT processing.

  • Macbook Pro 15" with two 27"+ high res. monitor trough thunderbolt port

    Hi all,
    I just looking for a solution, to make it work: With a thunderbolt port MB Pro 15" (2011-eraly, 2011 late, 2012 mid NOT RETINA version), which has only one thunderbolt port. How its possible to plug two (min. 2560x1440) high resolution NOT APPLE Display (daisy chain). I got now one Dell 3011 and I plan to plug a second one. BUT how?
    It is any HUB or something like that, which create from the one thunderbolt port »» two mini or standard diplay port, or dual DVI, so two separate connector which can handle the high resolution?
    I saw lot of solution up to 1920x1200 (dualhead2go, etc.), but nowhere found any idea to handle with a MB Pro 15" thunderbolt version multiple (dual) external HIGH Resolution monitor 27-30" (2560x1440, or 2560x1600).

    Try Googling "macbook pro thunderbolt dual display adapter" - there are a number of hits (even a YouTube video). See if you can find what might work best for you. I'm sure that someone around here has acheived this - they're jut not chiming in at the moment. Also check with OWC and see if they have anything. You can call them at 1.800.275.4576.
    Good luck,

  • X200 External Monitor -- In High Resolution​, Tablet Pen Won't Work

    I have an X200 Tablet running Windows 7 and need everything I write on the tablet with the digital pen to be simultaneously visible on an external monitor.  The problem is that when using both monitors simultaneously, the X200 will only display on the external monitor at the X200's maximum resolution (1280x800) even though the external monitor can go to a higher resolution (1680x1050).
    I've tried the Ultramon app, which allows the Tablet and external monitor to both be at their max resolution (which is my goal) but then the digital pen won't work on the Tablet.
    Any thoughts on a solution?

    • Went to Best Buy

    Seems to be a driver problem with the new update (10.6.7). I will not update again till drivers are fixed.

  • Connecting external monitor to G4 at higher resolution than 1024x768

    Is this possible? I believe someone told me that there is a way since the graphics card can support higher resolution, just not at the LCD.
    I am doing web design and that resolution is becoming cumbersome to work with and my external monitor can go up to 1600x1200.
    Thanks.

    Yes it is possible, but "at your own risk". Look for "Screen spanning doctor".
    If you test it, please report here the maximum resolution you can use in clamshell mode. I am going to buy a monitor and I wasn't able to find such value.
    I know I can use 1600x1200, I already did it, but I tried the external monitor as secondary monitor. Could you please test the clamshell mode? can it go over 1600x1200 when the main display is off?

  • Slow performance with high resolution external monitor

    Hello,
    I recently bought HP EliteBook 840 G1, i7-4600U, 8gb ram, HD intel graphics 4400, 256GB SSD.
    Everything would be fine, but when I connect my 30" Dell monitor with 2560x1600 resolution as an external monitor, the performance of the computer drops significantly to the point where it becomes unconvenient to work with programs that require more resorces.
    I understand that it might be due to limitations of the hardware (most probably graphic card is too weak ? ), but still I'd like to ask if there is anything I could do to boost the performance of HP Elitebook with high resolution external monitor.

    Hi, you should use renderMode = gpu in your application descriptor xml file, especially for latest android devices. But gpu is not a good idea for old devices, so you may also try renderMode = direct.
    Honestly, I don't think those android devices made in china have good performance, especially gpu.

  • T420s - Unable to set high resolution when on external monitor via DP.

    Sorry, let me clarify - 
    Unlike the OP, I do *not* switch back to 50 Hz on battery. However, I am running the NVIDIA beta driver. I installed this because with the Lenovo driver, the machine was not outputiting 2560x1600 over the display port. The highest resolution it would output was 2048 x 1000-something (out of the office now and don't have the exact numbers).
    So yes, with the Lenovo driver the external DP was working, just not outputting the highest resolution. Installing the Nvidia driver fixed that problem. Whether it is related or not, I don't know, but with this driver I do not get 50Hz resolution on the LCD on battery -- everything stays at 60.
    I have not rolled back to the Lenovo driver to test whethe this is reall a driver issue, but suggest that the OP try out the Nvidia driver.
    edit note: Change subject to match description.

    The unable to set high resolution issue on the T420 (not the T420s) was sent to engineering by JameZ just a few days ago. See more here. I suggest you post there or contact JameZ so they know it also occurs on the T420s.

  • Satellite P200D: How to get higher resolution with HDMI on external monitor

    Hi,
    i have problem with my notebook P200D. I want to use my book with extern LCD in resolution 1680x1050.
    In analog connection i have reached this resolution, but the quality of the output is bad.
    I see some waves on the screen of LCD. And colors are little bit different.
    Notebook has hdmi output too, so I have bought hdmi/dvi cabel, which is working, but i have reached only the resolution of 1200x1020.
    Cabel is signgle link, it exists dual link cabel, but i am not sure if this sloves my problem. I have read that the hdmi output in the Toshiba notebooks is only single link.
    So i cant reached higher resolution than 1200x1020... Is it true?

    Vlada I do not know what you mean with bad picture but if you can use the right resolution the picture must be simply brilliant. I am afraid you can not set the right resolution (1680 x 1050) and because of that you are not happy with analog connection.
    About HDMI usage I can just say that I have tried to connect Qosmio G30 to my HD Ready LCD TV. I have just switched to the TV using FN+F5 key combination, checked graphic card settings and set it to the center. The picture was perfect and I didnt change resolution.
    It is very interesting theme and I hope someone else will post own experiences.
    Bye and good luck!

  • Get higher resolutions for extended desktop

    We have a new iMac. We also have an older Apple Cinema HD display monitor that we're using with the iMac as an extended desktop. On the iMac, we're using 2560 x 1440 resolution; but the highest resolution we can get on the Cinema HD is only 1280 x 800. Does anyone know how we can get higher resolutions on our Cinema HD display monitor?

    I've been looking for a way to have the screen resolution change for different Apps too.  I can't find anything in Automator, but I hope there is a way..  Like you, I like my editing programs to be higher resolution and my finder, email and the rest to have a lower resolution.

  • Lion, Dell External Display, no higher resolutions !!!!!

    Hi,
    Apologies if this is the wrong area for this to go into... but i think this is a problem with Lion rather than anything else.
    Recently got a new MacBook Pro 15" (woo hoo !!!) and its running Lion.
    When i go into the System Preferences > Display, the highest resolution is showing up as 1680x1050. That's fine.
    Now when i plug my Dell 3007WFP external monitor into the laptop the maximum resolution that i can select is 1280x800. It recognizes the display, but just doesn't have the higher resolutions for me to be able to select.
    I didn't have this problem with my old 17" MacBook Pro running Snow Leopard.
    Any ideas on what the problem might be, and how i can fix it ???
    Thanks in advance for all suggestions...
    Silver

    Update...
    Found the solution to the problem...
    Basically, its nothing to do with Lion or a fault on the MacBook Pro...
    All new Macbook's ship with the Thunderbolt port. So if you want to plug an external display in which is 30" or more then you need to use a Mini Display Port to Dual Link DVI adapter. I was using a Mini Display to DVI adaptar, so i was basically getting half the resolution (1280x800) !!! Now with the dual link, i have full 2560x1600 glory !!!
    Liink to the device at Apple Store... http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB571Z/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
    Hope that helps someone else who has the problem.
