Designing Forms to match Monitor's Screen Resolution

Hello folks,
Just wondering. Does anyone know Oracle built-in procedures or
functions to make sure Forms will be displayed appropriately
according to screen resolution.
Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi
Upto my knowledge there is no any built-in avilable to know
the screen resolution. In the design time itself, the developer
has to decide about the coordination system for the form module.
It depends on to which platform the you are going to deploy the
system. If it should support both character and GUI mode then it
is advisible to select charcter cell mode.
If it is only GUI mode, it's upto you.

  • IMac 2nd monitor output screen resolution comparison

    So I currently use dual monitors on my Power Mac G5, but am planning on scooping a new iMac and still want to connect one of my existing monitors to it for the extra screen real estate.  My concern is whether or not the two screen resolutions would match up with both/either the 21.5” iMac, and the 27” iMac.
    The iMac would have it’s widescreen screen size, but my existing monitors are 4:3 ratio. I just want to make sure that I am able to drag windows back and forth between the two screens without any kind of window resizing. That would bug me out!
    Does anyone know where I can find the resolution options for these iMacs, and how they might compare to my current, 4:3 ration resolution, which is
    Thanks so much!

    The specifications say:
    Simultaneously supports full native resolution on the built-in display and up to a 30-inch display (2560 by 1600 pixels) on an external display

  • HP Pavilion Slimline s5-1126 with 2 monitors has screen resolution issue

    I have 2 HP Pavilion Slimline s5-1126 PC with HP 2031 dual monitors on each computer. Both computers were first started with only 1 monitor and everything worked great. I have now added a second monitor to the DVI output on each and the monitors on both systems connected to the DVI don't display correctly. I checked the display settings and the number 1 monitor said PnP Generic Monitor and number 2 monitor said HP 2031. I did a detect on the display and it did not change. I switched the monitors and the monitor connected to the DVI is still incorrect. There is no option to change the resolution either on the number 1 monitor. It appears to me that it just does not recognize the monitor. The strange thing is that both computers are doing this. I set an identical system up last week and it worked great. Any help will be great

    @Clay...
    Please read the info at this other post; New HP Pavilion PC Can't Change Monitor Resolution. The common thread here, seems to be AMD Hudson Socket FM1 systems using DVI (digital) output with 20" LCD monitors.  And your setup falls into this category.

  • Screen resolution in 10G and converison from 6i

    Scenario is something like this:
    We are converting forms from 6i to 10G.
    We have designed forms in 6i for 1024x768 screen resolution. We don't have any issues in 6i for screen resolution of 1024x768.
    We converted the form to 10G. Screen resolution is still 1024x768 in 10G. We are using separateFrame=true in formsweb.cfg to make sure we don't show the Applet in browser window. separateFrame=true opens the application in new window and this new window can use entire screen resolution.
    Applet in new window is bigger than the screen resolution and we see scroll bars in main window when we open a child window. Obviously the applet is showing bigger footprint than client server form.
    Why is this so? Is there a way to fix this?

    If you will bring up a client-server form and a Web separate-frame form and compare them side-by-side, you can easily see the difference.
    The height and width of the actual space used by the form is identical. In fact, in my comparison, both window widths are exactly the same number of pixels. I used snagit to compare the sizes.
    However, if you compare the heights, you will see the difference. The web forms window has three bands above the actual Form canvas:
    1. The main window bar with the java icon on the left, window title, and the three windows icons for minimize, maximize and close.
    2. The pull-down menu choices on the left and the "Oracle" logo on the right. (Look-and-feel generic removes the Oracle logo, I believe.)
    3. The Window0 bar, blank except an icon on the left (right click shows Restore, Move, Size,... CLose) and an icon on the right, which clicking causes the inside window to maximize or restore.
    The Client/Server window has two bands:
    1. Main window bar, similar to 1 above, except the icon on the left is a Forms icon instead of java.
    2. Combination of 2 and 3 above: Contains both the icons in 3 above plus the pull-down menu choices. It is also about 8 pixels shorter than the web forms bar 2.
    In addition, comparing the bar with the message and status lines at the bottom of both versions, you can see that the web forms bar is about 9 more pixels higher.
    It is possible to position the Window0 at a y_pos of about -20 to regain some of the lost height (this causes the third bar described above to be hidden behind the second). But you cannot get all the height back, because of the additional height taken by Web Forms for the second bar and the bottom area.
    So what is left is to reduce the height of the canvas area used by your forms by about 20 pixels.
    I believe these heights are determined by the java runtime used by web forms rather than Oracle, so there is nothing Oracle can do about it.

  • Screen resolution exteral monitor for philips 22PFL4505D/F7 monitor

    what do i need for the screen resolution exteral monitor - philips 22PFL4505D/F7 monitor
    on a macbook
    thank you!
    it works - it is just not clear

    The 13.3" screen on the MacBook running at 1280 x 800 will have a ppi (pixels per inch) of around 113. A 22" monitor running 1680 x 1050 will have a ppi of around 90. So it is natural that it will look magnified compared with the MacBook. The two displays have different a pixel pitch.
    Since there are no monitors with ~113 ppi out there in the market, what you want to do with having the same size and sharpness between the MB and a monitor will not be possible.
    If you ran the MB's screen at 1024 x 640 (not even sure if that is an available choice), then the two screens would match in terms of "magnification." But the MB isn't going to look very sharp running such a low, non-native format.

  • Forms 10g - Screen Resolution

    I'm in the middle of a upgrade from oracle forms 6i to 10g. When the original system was built it was optimized for 800x600 screen resolution. Thankfully this resolution is now obsolite.
    What would the standard for designing forms and how do you handle users with different resolutions using the system?

    I think you are going to get a multitude of different answers to your question. Where I work, we've standardized on 1024x768, but only have an extensive survey was done to find out what the average resolution was for the users of our application. The majority of our users were at 1024x768 or higher. A very small percent were still running at 800x600, but many of these users were only at this resolution because they didn't know how tit. My recommendation to you would be to take the time to survey your users and find out what the average resolution is and then standardize on this resolution.
    Hope this helps.

  • Print design and retina mac laptop screen resolution?

    print designer here considering buying a retina mac laptop but concerned about the screen resolution and 2x pixels that i keep on reading about. For preparing artwork for PRINTshould i continue preparing my images at 300dpi at 100@ of the final size? thanks so much, claudia.

    There are only a couple choices. Either return the monitor for a brand name monitor that is Mac compatible, or use third-party software (DisplayConfigX or SwitchRes X) to make up for the Optiquest's display driver deficiency and configure the required 1280 x 1024 timing manually.

  • What Screen Resolution should I Design For?

    Hi,
    For APEX applications in public sites, what should be the proper screen resolution should I design for? Also, when I put something like a chart in a region, the size of the chart is always fixed. Therefore, it may not fit a particular screen size. I am wondering what should be the proper screen resolution I should target for - considering different desktop monitors and tablets?
    Thanks.

    Also, when I put something like a chart in a region, the size of the chart is always fixed. Therefore, it may not fit a particular screen size. I think it is OK to have some elements with a fixed size, like charts and images, while the rest of the page resizes itself. Charts are a problem because I don't think you can give them a "width=100%" as you can do with images. I think it depends on your audience. If only 5% of users will see the page in a small screen, you should use a big chart, and vice-versa. Or have two charts, one big and one small, and dynamically hide/show them based on the screen size?
    If you use Apex 4.2, it has very interesting themes. For instance, I was surprised to see how fluid this page I created was:
    http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=65861:3:0::NO::P3_ROWID:AAjQ4rAGlAAAADUAAB
    If you make the browser window narrow enough, the order items region will move underneath the customer orders region... Cool! :)
    (using CTRL+ to make the page bigger doesn't do the trick though...)

  • Help please? problems with screen resolution & external monitor

    had a look around this forum and seen many questions about screen resolution when connecting to an external monitor but unfortunately, non that help me answer my problem.
    got a brand new macbook a few months ago and today bought a HP v220 22" external monitor.
    I am new to the idea of external monitors and am unsure what i am doing wrong settings-wise. it seems that no matter what resolution i set either my macbook display, or the external monitor display to. the external monitor is still not sharp.
    Im not sure how to explain what i need but basically i need it to be so that things appear on the external the same size as they do on my macbook screen, so that i will have more space to work in on my external monitor (i am a graphics student) but at the moment what appears on the monitor is lieterally just a magnified version of my macbook screen, hence it lacks clarity.
    the highest resolution offered in the menu for my macbook screen is 1280x800 and my external is recommended to be set at 1680x1050.
    what settings should i have to get the resolution right?
    i will be so so grateful if you can help. i think ive tried every single display setting but to no avail. so please help me!

    The 13.3" screen on the MacBook running at 1280 x 800 will have a ppi (pixels per inch) of around 113. A 22" monitor running 1680 x 1050 will have a ppi of around 90. So it is natural that it will look magnified compared with the MacBook. The two displays have different a pixel pitch.

  • Generating a form for a different screen resolution

    Hi
    Say I use a screen resolution of 1024x768, but I need to generate forms for a 800x600 resolution.
    How Designer knows how much screen it can use to layout the items? Should I generate forms in the target resolution, or somehow can I set this?
    Thanks!
    Luis Cabral

    Designer does not 'know' what resolution you are generating for. For 800x600 resolution, the maximum width and height are about 80 x 57, give or take a few. I suggest sticking with these numbers and/or tweak with them for best results in your deployment environment.

  • EHP1 Upgarde Monitor screen resolution problem in a support message

    Hi Experts,
    We have recently upgraded our Solution manager to EHP1, iam facing a screen resolution problem with 15 inch monitors.
    Our key users have 15 inch monitors to their system and when they try to reply a support message under transaction data-> Overview tab -> reply it is showing only one line for them , due to which they are unable to enter the complete data in it.
    How ever We have found that this does not occur with 17 inc monitors as the required screen resoution 1280* 1024 is possible due to bigger size of the monitor.
    can any one suggest how to make the overview tab visible completely with small resolution monitors.
    Thanks

  • External screen resolution "defaults" to low-rez (T510, docked; Samsung SyncMaster 730b monitor)

    I have a T510 Thinkpad with docking station (Windows XP) with Samsung SyncMaster 730b monitor. Every time I start up, it defaults to low resolution and I need to manually increase the screen resolution. Is there a way to make the default setting for the external monitor is high-resolution?
    Thanks!

    hey ct-user,
    it is hard to say if this is caused by the external monitor or by the docking station.
    try having the the external monitor connected to the T510 and see if it "saves" the resolution that was previously set.
    also, test the external monitor on a different laptop and see if the same issue occurs.

  • Connecting Samsung 913n monitor to ibook -screen resolution?

    Hi,
    I've bought a new monitor - Samsung 913n - and want to connect it to my ibook. No joy so far!
    I have the adaptor and there seems to be a link between them, as the monitor says I've lost the signal when I unplug the adaptor.
    One possibility seems to be that there is not an option for the correct screen resolution when I go to the Display preferences. The monitor is 1280 x 1024, but I only have three options which are all smaller than this.
    I have reinstalled my system software but no luck.
    Any help appreciated!

    Hi, Nikki. Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    You are stuck with the screen resolution of the iBook. There is no way to increase it. Sorry.

  • New monitor now screen way off center at proper resolution

    Hi
    After my monitor died I got a 24" LED Combo Television/DVD player FLDC2400 60hz, 1080p resolution by Fluid.  The guy in the shop said it would work as a computer monitor.  The only problem is that when I have it set to the recommended resolution (I clicked on that 'detect' button in the control panel display settings) the image is clear and sharp but waaaaay off to the right, cutting about 1/8 of the display and leaving a thick panel of black over the other side.  If I make the resolution lower it centers again but then everything has that low quality fuzzy bloated look to it.  Is there something I can do so that the proper resolution screen works?
    Thanks!  And if anyone is kind enough to answer please know I am a computer dummy so explain things as you would to a five year old!!! :-)
