E71 - Theme and screen real estate on Standby-Page

While the screen of the E71 is not massive, it is my impression that the built in themes (and the ones I have seen) waste a lot of screen real estate. Specifically I mean the area on the Standby-Page under the clock. Its empty. It can't be configured and I have not seen an app for it.
Can someone shed light into this?

Apple doesn't offer the option of full resolution (2880x1800) and says everything other than 1440 x 900 won't look as good as 1440x900.
so while you can set the monitor to 17" resolution (1920x1080) it has to simulate it on a 2880x900 screen and has to blur and reinterpolate elements to make it work
they've really messed it up for anyone wanting true HD resolution for professional reasons.
Indeed. Everything except 2880x1800, which is unavailable without SwitchResX, and 1440x900, which comfortably fits one pixel of the image into a four pixel square of the Retina Display, must be simulated or scaled. However, while the scaling is real, the 17" "simulation" looks as good, to my eye at least, as my wife's MBP 17". Going smaller will test one's eyes probably as much as Apple's scaling algorithms so the tradeoff for greater screen real-estate may turn out not to be as bad as we'd think. All I need is a MBP Retina Display and SwitchResX to find out...

5800 Screen Real estate optimizations

The 5800 phone wastes a lot of screen real estate especially in Landscape mode (can be optimized further in Portrait mode too). Is Nokia planning for any User Experience enhancements?
Are there any 3rd party themes that uses the screen space efficiently?

Something you can do is to use Snaptu and Opera mini as shortcuts on your homescreen this at least gives instant access to a large number of 'apps'/web pages at a single tap !
Also if you check some other web sites, some people modify there phones, but it is not recommended as it would invalidate your phone, and shouldn't be discussed on this forum !!
If I have helped at all, a click on the White Star is always appreciated :

Online Services - waste of screen real estate

Does anyone know if it is possible (and how to) hide the Online Services pane that is now on the right hand side of Reader? It would have been nice if Adobe had made it just another collapsible/expandible pane added to the left side like Thumbnails, Attachments, etc. Frustrated becaue it just takes up screen real estate.

Well that was totally obviously . Thanks.

Screen Real Estate not being used

Hi
Dont know if this is software or hardware question - I just got a new bigger monitor for my Powermac. Display resolution is now 1600x1200.
Problem is whenever I put a new item onto the desktop, it stacks on top of another item thats already there (the one in the bottom right corner), even though I have over half of the desktop space empty!
Not a huge huge deal but just thnking it must be a simple fix!?

Screen real-estate on the 15" MBP Retina display

The 15" MacBook Pro Retina Display has a remarkable 2880x1800 pixel resolution, compared to the 27" LED display's 2560x1440. Normally, screen real-estate is defined as how much stuff (windows, menu bar items, bookmark lists, etc) you can fit on the screen, with a larger (that is, more pixels) screen being able to show more stuff using its native resolution.
With the MBP's Retina display, the pixels are so small that using its native resolution in the same way as with the 27" monitor should result in, say, really small menu bar items, etc. As a result, the default monitor setting involves scaling, so that something which might normally take up one pixel might get four or eight devoted to it, making it larger and easier to see. Its monitor control panel allows changing that relationship so that everything could be made to appear even larger, resulting in less screen real-estate, or smaller, resulting in more screen real-estate; i.e., lots more stuff can fit on the screen.
My question is whether, at the smallest setting offered, the screen real-estate is the equivalent of, say, a 32" monitor which also has 2880x1800 pixel resolution but is spread over a much smaller physical area, or is the Retina's display still scaled to some smaller equivalent resolution because straight 1 to 1 would simply be too small to be practical? If that's the case, what does the effective resolution work out to be at the smallest setting?
I'm aware that's not a simple question because, for example, I understand that an HD Movie could be displayed pixel for pixel even if everything else outside that window is scaled. Moreover, the use of vector graphics complicates the matter further. But for things like menu lists and word processing documents, can the MBP's Retina display be set to what we understand to be 1 to 1?

Is there an instant movie theme suitable for Real Estate videos with Premiere Plus?

Most of the themes are very flashy/snappy/loud. Before I pay $50. I would like to know that there is a theme suitable for a short real estate video of a neighborhood and walkthrough of a home. Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.
I hesitated to reply, as I have only used Themes once, and then totally reconstructed the Effects. I also do not have PrE 10, so you probably have more Themes, but I am not sure that any is really suitable for your described Project. I was hoping that Steve, Neale, John T., or others, who might have more familiarity with Themes, would show up, but they have not - yet.
Looking through the Themes that I have, and even putting on my creative hat, to image how one might work as a base, and then be heavily modified for your Project, I am coming up almost at a total loss. The closest that I could come would be the Travel Theme, where the Locations (in the Theme) are changed to the houses in a neighborhood. Yes, that IS a stretch, but the best that I can come up with.
I agree with you that the Themes, in their stock form, are flashy, loud and most suited for a short treatment, that would be shown to young children, sort of like many things at a Disney themepark - bright lights that flash, loud SFX and music, bright colors, etc..Hardly suitable for a commercial, professional Video.
Now, when you write:
Before I pay $50. I would like to know that there is a theme suitable...
Are you contemplating buying a "Theme Pack," (have not seen such) or similar, or do you mean, before you buy PrE?
If the former, can you point to the source of that Theme Pack, and I will look over the details. If you mean the latter, PrE is in no way restricted to those Themes. I have used PrE for many years, and have used but one Theme (heavily modified), in all that time. I have created many commercial, business Videos, so the program has all the power that you need - just not with their Themes.
If you are contemplating the purchase of PrE, can you outline the material that you will be working with, a few of your ideas on the aesthetics, that you would like to incorporate, any technical thoughts, and give us an idea of how you will want to deliver the Video. We can help you make that decision, as to whether PrE is the right tool.
While I have not seen any of the newer versions, AVID/Pinnacle's Studio program (probably up to ~ 15 now) has, or had, similar with their Instant Movie. However, back to about Studio 10, those were in the same vein, as PrE's Themes (nearly useless, and often rather odd, though usually funny, and maybe not in the way intended?). Back through about 10, I cannot imagine one of those being useful for your purpose, but might have missed one, and Pinnacle might have finally added some that ARE useful.
Good luck, and please let us know a bit more.

15" v 17" screen real estate

has anyone used for a extended period, a 15" and 17" hd mbp. I have a 17" and for numerous reasons am probably downgrading to a 15" unless i get very big reasons not to. any one have any thoughts on the topic?

If you are still considering the 17" hi-res (which I assume you mean by 'hd'), you'll want to try and see one in person first. 1920X1200 is _a lot_ of desktop real estate, but conversely, the display is only 17" - meaning the pixels are small, and the resulting small text elements of the UI are difficult for some people to read.
I have the 17" standard res, and prefer the additional area over the 15". I don't find the 17" to be more difficult to carry than the 15" - IMHO, neither is really all that portable (compared to something like my wife's 12" G4 PB, for example).

How to maximize screen real-estate in Gnome3

Upgraded to Gnome 3 yesterday, only to find that my cherished panels are gone, and the title bar of windows are super bulky.
Could someone educate me about how to make use of the black panel on the top or completely hide it?
I read somewhere on the gnome official site that they have the plan to merge the titlebar and the top panel. Is this in testing now?
Thanks a lot!

Wasted Screen real estate for toolbars

Firefox 4.0b.11 -
How do I adjust the positioning of the toolbars. I currently have them at default view, in that I have the "titile bar" on the top, then the main menu bar underneath that, and then the URL bar that also has a few add-ons at the far end. Then below that is the bookmarks bar..
My problem is that I would like to put either the title bar next to the main menu bar.. not underneath it (or visa versa), as there is about 3/4" of blank space (you can actually see my pc desktop) between the title bar and URL bar... How can I reduce this wasted space??? TIA<

Yes that may free up some space, but it creates a new issue by making me have to take an additional steps to access the menu items... Alt Alt Alt...not satisfactory.
From my perspective and for ease of use I would prefer having the "options" of doing ALL the following:
(1) resize the address bar/nav window, (2) delete the Google window and then being able to (3) Move the menu to the same bar as the address bar/nav window. (4) arrange all items including the Home Button to a position on the nav bar which is most comfortable for my use
If this is possible and someone can tell me how to do it, I will kiss the ground you walk on...

Maximize MBP- ALS, screen real-estate...

Hey there,
i've been trying to figure out a couple tricks for my new toy. i would like to see if i can run a couple things that i've seen within you tube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySLSos33QLc
the cube-spin mainly
also interested what other people think about parallel or boot camp.
also the slapbook features. i've heard that you can do something with waving your hand over the ALS as well, located in the speakers.

The "cube spin" is VirtueDesktops, usually on
http://virtuedesktops.info/downloads/
But the site seems down at the moment ... (can upload or send the installer it's only 2.6MB)
SlapBook Pro uses the motion sensor not the light sensor.

Plant Maintenance followed by Flexible Real Estate

We are looking to implement both Plant Maintenance and Flexible Real Estate. We are hoping to first implement Plant Maintenance, and then follow it with Flexible Real Estate.
Is there any reason we should not follow this logic? Should we implement them both at the same time, or should flexible real estate get implemented before plant maintenance? Will we be creating a lot more work by implementing them separately?
Reasons why or why not would be very helpful.
Thank you all for your time,

I teach Continuing education classes to Real Estate agents and I need to issue them certificates at the class, whihc need to be signed by me and it needs to contain their info on the certificate. The certificate is currently saved in a word format.What i'm trying to accomplish is to do a "mail merge " ( as some classes i have as many as 150 attendees) for the document, digitally sign each one with my signature on the certificate and then e-mail it out to the respective attendees. can this be done? if so How?

This is the step that I took after inputting my signature.
On the right, after saving my document, I click "Get Others to Sign." I was confused because it says that it's powered by EchoSign. Like I stated before, my clients are able to sign this document when I send it to them, but it is returned to me with their signature (not in the signature field, but at the end of the document), and my signature is missing. I tested this on myself - my signature is missing when they receive it.
