High screen resolution problems

Hi. 
Just bought a Dell XPS lapptop with screen resolution 3200x1800 and windows 8.1. After installing photoshop CS6 the program interface, menus and icons are extremly smal and almost impossible to see. That also happens in Bridge but not in Lightroom. Thankfull for your help.  Best regards/janis lukas

Ideally  For a Image editor you want a high resolution display so you can edit your images at a high resolution near or actual print quality.  And the editor should have a UI that is easy to see and use.  That is what CC 2014 2x UI is all about.   You can can have an OS like Windows scale your display image effectively  run you display at a lower resolution so that things display larger.  Scaling the display to 1/2 resolution is easy for its and even multiplayer 2x A 200DPI display would be like a 100DPI display with 1/4 the number of pixels.  Scaling the display defeats the reason to have a high resolution display.  However it may work well for a Application like the bridge. The the bridge only displays previews and thumbnails.  It is not what you want for an image editor like Photoshop.  You want to be able to use the high resolution for editing.
As I wrote Windows can scale the system display for application to lower resolutions.   Application have that option.  Adobe application do not the have windows scale the display so their Applications can take advantage of all the pixels and resolution the display has to offer.  However Only Photoshop has a option to scale its UI 2x.
It is possible to have Windows scale the display for an Adobe Application by making a registry update and adding an external manifest file for applications yo want Windows to scale.
I can show you the difference between  Adobe CC 2x UI and Windows scaling.  CC 2014 2x UI works well on 4K displays that have high resolution.  However it does not work well on a Surface Pro 3  Display that has a 216PPI resolution for the display only has 2160 x 1440 Pixels Scaling the UI 2x effectively make the display look like a 108 PPI display with 1080x720 pixels.  Which doe not meet Photoshop 1024x768 requirement.  Photoshop UI just doesn't fit.
Windows Scaling for the Surface Pro 3 has  4 preset dor scaling the display 150% being the default for the surface pro 3
Microsoft Preset Display scaling
100% 2160x1440   216 PPI
125% 1728x1152   173 PPI
150% 1440x960    144 PPI SP3 Default setting
200% 1080x720    108 PPI
The 150% scaling works well for Photoshop UI however it alsi scala Photoshop image window where CC 2014 2C UI does not.  Windows scaling can also be use on other versions of Photoshop and bridge etc. It would be helpful if Photoshop also offered a  1.25x and 1.5x UI.  Here are some screen captures I did on my Surface Pro 3 the shows the difference  between 2x UI and Display scaling.   CC 2014  Adobe scaling vs Windows scaling.

  • Message says "screen resolution problem" and says to set higher than 1020 x 600. My screen resolution is set higher. Why am I getting this message all the time I use firefox?

    when I go on to Firefox I keep getting the message that there is a screen resolution problem and it says I should set it higher a than 1020 X 600. But my screen resolution is set higher. It is set at 1360 x 768. Why am I getting this message continuously?

    I've had the problem too... for at least a month or more. It would happen when logging into yahoo mail. But it happens only with firefox... not explorer. I contacted yahoo and he had me first disable add ons... no change... and since it didn't happen with explorer, they said to contact firefox. So I followed the advice of cor-el's post (on this page) and made the text on my page smaller... It did fix the issue.... but, I liked the size of the text the way I had it. So, how do I get it back to that size, and not have that annoying message any longer? thanks!!

  • 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

  • Screen resolution problem in table control

    when i was transfering data in BDC using table control,i got screen resolution problem.
    how to rectify the problem?

    Hi,
    Check this coding.
    WA_CTU_PARAMS type ctu_params.
    WA_CTU_PARAMS-DISMODE = 'N'. "no screen mode
    WA_CTU_PARAMS-UPDMODE = 'S'. "synchronous update
    WA_CTU_PARAMS-NOBINPT = 'X'.
    WA_CTU_PARAMS-NOBIEND = 'X'.
    WA_CTU_PARAMS-DEFSIZE = 'X'. "Default size
    CALL TRANSACTION 'VA01' USING it_bdcdata
    OPTIONS FROM WA_CTU_PARAMS
    MESSAGES INTO it_mesg.
    Default size will play good role in terms of resolution. in one system in table control you can see 10rows, but in others system it will show 20 records. it depends on resolution. but when you set the default size then it will take same (default screen size) in all the systems when you run BDC.
    Hope this resolves your query.

  • To Resolve Screen Resolution Problem

    Hi
    How to resolve screen resolution problem in BDC Session Method. can't we use ctu_params?
    Thanx & Regards
    venkat

    Hi Venkat,
    Yes, you can use ctu_params.
    This is for Default screen size for CALL TRANSACTION. It signifies the screen size will be constant irrespective of the screen resolution(which can vary for different user). The importance of this lies in programs(module pool) that contain table controls. With default screen size we can control the no of rows in the table control which otherwise may vary depending on the screen resolution.
    DEFSIZE is the Selection as to whether the screens of the called transaction are displayed in the standard screen size. Values "X" (standard size), " " (current size).
    sample.
    data : x_ctu_params type ctu_params.
    To have default screen size, mode and update
      x_ctu_params-defsize = 'X'.
      x_ctu_params-dismode = 'X'.
      x_ctu_params-updmode = 'X'.
    call transaction tscode using  bdcdata
                              options from x_ctu_params

  • Cant get higher screen resolutions ???

    Hi all,
    hope you can help...
    I installed my new Ge4 Ti4200 last night. All works well but in display properties/settings the highest res. I can get is 1280x1024. This isn't right, i have a 20" LaCie monitor and have used the same one elsewhere at higher resolutions.
    I dont think the problem is with the monitor driver as i have tried different monitor drivers and in any case, they all say 1600x1200 etc.. in the monitor.inf. My computer at work will go 2048x1536 and thats using the "default monitor" driver provided by microsoft. so thats not limiting it.
    I can only think that when i installed the Geforce software and drivers, somehow it didn't talk to teh monitor properly and therefore limited teh available resolutions. I used to have a voodoo 3 and I know that they are notorrious for leaving old files in your system so maybe somehow old voodoo software has limited the resolutions that teh card will allow in teh display properties ?
    any help would be appreciated

    I do not know whether it helps, but I use Powerstrip .. very good software. It helps me to access monitor and video card settings easily. After installation and running this program it asks me whether I want Powerstrip to adjust resolutions that is allowed by my video card. After pressing yes I have rebooted PC. After that I could adjust screen resolutions in monitor settings up to 1600*1200 (used for plug and play default monitor). I notice that I use 15' monitor that support max resolution 1024*768 but PowerStrip allows me to change it up to 1600*1200. Of course I do not use resolutions higher than my monitor supports.
    If you have no idea to solve your problem try this program. Maybe this one can help to access available resolutions correctly.

  • Need higher screen resolution on my t500

    Hello there!
    My screen resolution is currently set to 1280x800 but I want it a bit higher. I bought it used with Windows 7, so I'm having a little trouble with the drivers.
    Any help or ideas? I've already installed the Intel Graphics Series 4, but still can't get higher than 1280x800.
    Thanks in advance...
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I have been chasing a solution to my problem that is similar.
    What I can tell you almost for sure (I haven't chec your device specs) is that 1280x800 is the physical resolution of your screen and there is nothing you can do about it. It is the number of pixsels and they cannot be split therefore resolutoin is fixed.
    I can also tell you that until I bought my new X200 which sports a screen resolution of 1280x800 like yours and installed Windows 7 I could overcome the resolution limit by panning. What this means is that I set a larger resolution, say 2048x1536, and the portion of desktop not visible through the 1280x800 window (physical pixels) could be reached by panning. That is, when you move the mouse to the edge of the screen and beyond the physical screen shows the hidden region until you reach the actual 2048x1024 or you stop the mouse and return. It's like having a desk covered by a large sheet with a hole the size of notebook sheet  that you move around to see every part of the desk through the hole.
    As I said prior to installing Win7 I could do this. Not anymore.
    Furthermore, I can still do it in my older pc: an IBM X41 even in Win7.
    My guess is that the problem lies in the display drivers. I check every so often but they are never updated to cover this issue. It doesn't seem  to bother many apart from me.

  • 3000/N100 Mouse/Screen Resolution Problems with Windows 7

    This is my first post and I appreciate your service.  My problem is that after I upgraded from Vista to Windows 7, I find that my touchpad mouse will freeze up & the screen resolution will changes occasionally when I boot up my computer.  When this happens, I have to restart my computer and hope that the mouse works and screen resolution is correct.  If it does work, it will continue to work until I turn off or restart the computer, then I cross my fingers again.  All my drivers are updated.  If the touchpad mouse is frozen, I can get my usb mouse to work, but I don't want to have to do that.  Has anyone else had this problem, or can anyone offer suggestions? 
    I never had this problem until I upgraded to Windows 7.
    Thanks in advance,

    I am using the Win 7 Enterprise 32 bit trial version.
    It is the FULL version, NOT an upgrade.
    If you used Upgrade, that may be a clue?

  • Screen resolution problem after i-tunes installed on XP pro

    Just purchased 5th Generation 60Gb for my daughters 16th Birthday which starts in about 14 minutes! Loaded the software on her XPpro service pack 2 laptop. When itunes executed the screen resolution drops to 8 bit! It can be changed in control panel and all works fine. but each time re boot itunes and the problem returns!
    Loaded on my desktop and everything fine also. tried the ms config stuff as per site and immediate problem when ms software disabled. Would seem to be a software conflict and compatability problem. The laptop is a fujitsu which is 2 years old. the older version of i-tunes which she downloaded about a year ago worked ok. Sadly we uninstalled it before installing the new version from the disc. Tried update from the site but it indicates the DC version is the latest.
    Interesting to read some of the problems that flks have had with the ipods. This one seems OK but does have a 'do not disconnect logo which hangs up and doesn't go away. However, if I do disconnect the computer 'burps' at me then all is well and forgotten!
    Oh yes. how do you delete unwanted songs once uploaded? Is there a simple 'delete' button?
    Any thoughts anyone as I've now spent all evening on it and it's her birthday in the morning (8th June)
    thanks in anticipation

    sorted problem by changing computer! probably softward hardware conflict with iTunes

  • Screen resolution problem - HP computer and LED Cinema Display

    I just purchased an HP Envy Phoenix H9-1330 with Windows 8, and I connected it to my 27" Mac LED Cinema Display, but the resolution is horrible. The highest option in the screen resolution menu is 1280 x 720, and I'm getting the error message "Your resolution is lower than 1024 x 768. Some items might not fit and apps might not open". How do I fix this? What kind of issue is this (Windows 8? Graphics card? HP can't support my monitor? etc...)?
    I just bought another brand new computer, but not an HP, with Windows 8 and I have no problems with the resolution - it looks absolutely beautiful. I want to use my monitor with my HP desktop though.
    Thanks for any help

    Still haven't figured it out....
    BUT I did notice that, on the back of the computer, there are 2 additional DVI connections that are covered with a black cover and screwed in (and they say 'please do not remove'.... I'm asuming it's because they aren't connected to anything? Or maybe they aren't connected to the graphics card?). Is it possible that just my DVI connection is wrong, and I'll need to connect to one of these covered-up DVI inputs instead? But why are they covered up? Do I need to take it in so they can be connected to the graphics card?? Help! I don't want to return this computer, but I will have to if I can't get the resolution fixed.

  • Screen Resolution Problem

    I have an idea pad U310 and every once in a while, I will turn my computer on and the screen will be shifted and stretched. I have tried restarting my computer again to fix it, sometimes it works, but sometimes it doesn't. I have also tried going into my preferences and changing the screen resolution back and forth, but it doesn't go back to normal. It has been like this for over a day now, which is why I'm finally getting around to asking for help. It is very inconvenient because 3/4 of my toolbar is not visible, so I can't see if what time it is, if i'm connected to wifi, how much battery i have left, etc. 
    Hopefully someone else has had this problem and/or there is an easy fix!!

    Hi Ak7534,

  • Screen resolution problem for components in a canvas

    Hi,
    I am developing a Flex application, and I am using more than
    one canvases in a single page(with in application tag).
    And one canvas has elements like Chart, datagrid, legent
    & a label.
    Width & Height I gave to canvas and all its elements
    (except legend & label) is in percentages
    The problem I am facing is that,
    when I change the screen resolution, and
    when I press F11(full screen) in IE, the all objects except
    legend & label are increasing/decreasing, and in some cases
    lagend & label are overlapping in the chart & data grid.
    Could anybody please advise what I need to follow to
    eliminate these kind of problems.
    Thanks in advance.
    Pavan

    Ooooooh, haha my bad, I didn't realize you were talking about
    relative positioning on your app.
    Here's what's happening. Your component/application is in
    ABSOLUTE layout mode, so you can specify coordinates for where
    controls and components should be placed. When the size of the
    application changes, these coordinates are hard-coded, and they
    will always display in the same place, which can case them to run
    into components that have been resized to fit the new application
    size. Now fixing those numbers is not easy. In fact, I don't know
    of any way to make those numbers dynamic so they adjust when the
    application size adjusts.
    Instead, I suggest using constraints or Vbox/Hbox rather than
    hardcoded coordinates. With constraints, you can specify how far
    your Legend component is from the edges of the container it's in.
    Or, you can use the VBox or HBox so your component is always in the
    place it needs to be.
    <mx:HBox width="80%" height="50%" top="10" left="10">
    <mx:PieChart id="piechart1">
    <mx:series>
    <mx:PieSeries displayName="Series 1" field=""/>
    </mx:series>
    </mx:PieChart>
    <mx:Legend dataProvider="{piechart1}"/>
    </mx:HBox>
    In this example, You can see I set top and left to 10. This
    means that my HBox will be exactly 10 pixels from the top and left
    side of my application (or container, or whatever it's confined
    to). The Piechart and Legend fit neatly inside the HBox, and
    because it's an HBox, they will be side by side horizontally.
    If you need spacing between your chart and legend, you can
    always use the Spacer control under Layout.
    <mx:HBox width="80%" height="50%" top="10" left="10">
    <mx:PieChart id="piechart1">
    <mx:series>
    <mx:PieSeries displayName="Series 1" field=""/>
    </mx:series>
    </mx:PieChart>
    <mx:Spacer width="100%"/>
    <mx:Legend dataProvider="{piechart1}"/>
    </mx:HBox>
    As you can see, the Spacer control is separating our chart
    and the Legend by a width specified. Always use a percentage here,
    as you'll run into problems I talked about in my previous post.
    100% means the chart and the Legend will be as far away as they can
    be while staying within the Hbox container. If you decreased it to
    50%, they would only be half as far away.
    Hope this helps.
    EDIT:
    One last example of a pie chart and a Legend within a canvas.
    Each object has constraints to the canvas, which lets us put them
    whereever we want within the canvas:
    <mx:Canvas x="0" y="0" width="80%">
    <mx:PieChart id="piechart1" left="10" top="10">
    <mx:series>
    <mx:PieSeries displayName="Series 1" field=""/>
    </mx:series>
    </mx:PieChart>
    <mx:Legend dataProvider="{piechart1}" right="10"
    bottom="10"/>
    </mx:Canvas>
    From this example, the chart will always line up to be 10
    pixels from the top and left of our canvas. The Legend however,
    will always line up to be 10 pixels from the right side and bottom
    of our canvas. Adjusting the canvas size, the chart size, or the
    legend size will give you the desired distance between these two
    objects.

  • Screen resolution problem in Microsoft Test Manager by Testing Windows Store Apps

    Hi,
    we are trying to perform tests of Windows Store Apps in a remote device (tablet), so as it is explained in:

    However, when we take a screenshot or we record a video, it is only shown a little part of the screen, because PC and Tablet screen resolutions are different.
    How could we solve this problem? Any idea?

  • Screen Resolution problem in BDC

    Hi,
    I am writing a BDC for credit memo creation using FB65 transaction in 4.6b version.
    I am facing BDC problems because of screen resolution. Is there a way to determine the number of lines items that may show up in the table control based on the resolution.
    There is no position button available in 4.6b . also page down is not working.
    Could anyone suggest an alternative?

    Hi,
    Use the below syntax...
    CALL TRANSACTION tcode... OPTIONS FROM opt
    ... OPTIONS FROM opt
    Effect
    Allows you to control processing using the values of the componetns of the structure opt, which must have the ABAP Dictionary type CTU_PARAMS. The components have the following meanings:
    DISMODE
    Display mode (like the MODE addition)
    UPDMODE
    Update mode (like the UPDATE addition)
    CATTMODE
    CATT mode (controls a CATT)
    CATT mode can have the following values:
    ' ' No CATT active
    'N' CATT without single-screen control
    'A' CATT with single-screen control
    DEFSIZE
    Use default window size
    RACOMMIT
    Do not end transaction at COMMIT WORK
    NOBINPT
    No batch input mode (that is, SY-BINPT = SPACE)
    NOBIEND
    No batch input mode after the end of BDC data.
    The components DEFSIZE , RACOMMIT, NOBINPT, and NOBIEND always take the following values:
    'X' Yes
    ' ' No
    If you do not use the OPTIONS FROM addition, the following control parameter settings apply:
    DISMODE
    From addition MODE
    UPDMODE
    From addition UPDATE
    CATTMODE
    No CATT active
    DEFSIZE
    Do not use default window size
    RACOMMIT
    Successful end on COMMIT WORK
    NOBINPT
    Batch input mode active ( SY-BINPT = X
    NOBIEND
    Batch input mode remains active after the BDC data
