Layout problem in Different Resolutions

Hi All,
I have a application which i have designed using null layouts and the resolution i have used is 1024x768. Now when i open the same application in 800x600 resolution some of the components placed at the bottom of the application are not seen. To resolve this issue i designed using GridBagLayout but still some of the components were not seen..Can anyone help me on how to resolve this issue..
Thanks in advance
Arpana

Ya the size of the container was changed but our application is such that
use of scrollpane is not recommended..Hence the problem..I have checked some softwares
designed in java on different resolutions and amazingly all the components get repositioned
according to the resolutions..But am yet to find out how it was achieved..

  • Layout problem  in diff Resolutions

    Hi all,
    The components in a JFrame appears fine in 1024*768 ScreenResolution but when it is seen in 800*600 ScreenResolution ,some of the components just dont show up though I am using GridBagLayout.
    Any solutions on this one would be highly appreciated...

  • Layout with different resolutions

    Hallo and good morning!
    Once again I need some advice:
    I have a program that is running on different machines with different resolutions.
    Is it possible to avoid, that the layout is paning all around?
    Best regards
    Hilby
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hi Hilby,
    No... that is currently a limitation of the layouts, where we try to adapt to each screen, but the objects and the layout may not fit into a different aspect ratio with a different number of pixels.
    The aspect ratio is the most important, followed by the total resolution of the screen.
    Some more information on aspect ratios is below.
    In summary, DASYLab is unable to completely adapt the "Screen" layout for evey monitor size and resolution. If you want to have a fixed layout that does not completely occupy some monitors, then consider using a fixed size, like A4 or A3.
    If you make something on a big monitor, 1600x1200 for example, and move it to a wide screen monitor,, 1600x900.
    From my friends at Wikipedia
    With computer displays, aspect ratios wider than 4:3 are also called widescreen. Widescreen computer displays were previously typically of 16:10 aspect ratio, now they are shifting to 16:9.
    Until about 2003, most computer monitors had a 4:3 aspect ratio and some had 5:4. Between 2003 and 2006, monitors with 16:9 and mostly 16:10 (8:5) aspect ratios became commonly available

  • Print a graph when used different resolutions

    Hello,
    my LV programm
    (using V8.5.1) must run on computers with different resolutions (1024x768,
    1280x1024...), so I used the option
    "new scaling of all frontpanel elements after changing the windows size" (free translating   )
    (German: "Alle Elemente des Frontpanels bei Änderung der Fenstergröße neu skalieren")
    in my VI.
    This works fine but now I have some trouble with the printout of a graph.
    Depending of the selected resolution of the computer, the graph will be printed complete or only partial, then the lower part of the graph is missing.
    To print out the graph I used the VI  "Append Control Image to Report.vi"
    Can anybody help me?
    Gruß

    Hello Jan,
     you are right - when printing the report in landscape orientation, images will be cropped if higher than the paper size.This issue has already been reported to our LabVIEW R&D team (#36511) and should be solved in a forthcoming update of the report generation toolkit. In my opinion, the issue is linked to the problem that the image will not fill out the report page completely to the right margin (#36926), another nuisance you might also have encountered.
    I have created a workaround for the problem,  which you should find attached to this post. As you change the graphs background color for printing, I added another property to resize the graph to the maximum printable size (evaluated here in trial&error, depending on your printer, the maximum size might change a bit), and another one to restore the original size when the report is done. To reduce the "blink time" of the graph, I placed the restoring property node directly after the control image has been attached to the report, so that during printer initialization, the original layout is already visible again.
    Hopefully, this is acceptable for you, until these issues have been fixed.
    Best regards,
    Sebastian

  • Multiple displays with different resolutions

    The system is setup with two non-mirrored displays with the following resolutions: A) 1024x768 and B) 1280x1024 arranged as BA with A the menu'd display using an ATI 9000 Pro for Mac. During startup, approximately once inch worth of the menu's right items momentarily appear on the right side of display B 768 pixels down from the top. This problem only occurs in this BA configuration of differing resolutions and is independent of graphics cards (substituted the 9000 Pro with a mirror only AGP Navidia card and a mirror only PCI ATI Rage card combination which gave the same result). This problem first appeared using MacOS 10.3 which displayed several inches of menu instead of only an inch under MacOS 10.4. Anyone else seen this problem?
    Dual 800 MHz QuickSilver   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    Over the weekend, I explained this problem to one of the Apple Geniuses at an Apple store and then was able to duplicate the issue using a lap top and attached monitor in the store (not the same resolutions as my system; but, screens of similarly different resolutions). I raise this issue again because, as of late, additional things have been happening and I wonder if these are related to the core issue of an expanded desktop with two different screen resolutions. All of the widgets on the larger resolution screen desktop are drawing in the menu located in the smaller resolution screen when hitting the "i" to gain access to its control panel; however, not effecting the menu at all when moved to the smaller resolution screen. The other has to do with screen savers periodically blanking both monitors (as though the graphics card went to sleep) or having both monitors lose syncing (first occurrence today) where a cold start is required to bring the monitors on line again (I am going to have to figure out a way to test if the system is actually sleeping or the monitors have only gone blank before cold starting the system).

  • Why are my HD videos all importing with different resolutions?

    Hi, I tried looking through like 10 pages of discussions on here and didn't see anybody else having this problem.
    I have a Canon Vixia HF200, I keep the settings on MXP (highest quality 1920 x 1080). Every time I log and transfer my videos they import at different resolutions (everything from the same day will be the same), some of them come in as 1440 x 1080, 720 x 480, etc, when they should all be 1920 x 1080.
    So, since some of them ended up being a completely different aspect ratio, I went into Motion>Distort and changed them all to 1920 x 1080, and I thought it was fine, but now I'm noticing that some of the videos look really out of focus (it seems like they get more out of focus every time I open it), so I'm thinking I probably shouldn't have stretched them....
    I checked the original videos in the browser and they all say 1920 x 1080 now, when I watch them in the viewer, they actually look like good HD videos, but in the canvas they're out of focus...
    I'm also working with multiple sequences, and when I copy videos from one sequence to another, it changes the resolution/aspect ratio/scale again, and becomes more blurry when I try to fix it.
    So basically, I have a huge mess. I'm working on editing a documentary that I'm making and now most of the video looks bad and I'm not sure how to change it back. I even tried starting a new project and importing the original videos, but they don't seem to have the original quality.
    Anybody know how I can either fix this or somehow replace the clips in the sequence with the originals in the browser to at least get some quality back?
    Also, a lot of the time when I render, I come back to the computer and it says something like "Error: Illegal (something) render failed" and completely loses the rendering that it spent a long time doing.
    I appreciate any help.
    Lisa

    Hi Lisa,
    Your 1920x1080 clips most likely import at their normal frame size, and then you placed them in the wrong sequence. Make sure your +File > Easy Setup+ is set to *Apple Intermediate Codec 1920x1080i60* before you create a new sequence.

  • Nouveu_XFCE4_Strange problems with screen resolution

    Hallo to all the people out here!!!
    I'm quite new to linux. I've been using Ubuntu and Mint for sometime but I decided to switch to Arch, since I decided to have more control over my machines. Before I go on I must clear out that most of those machines are build from old spare items.
    in the current machine I'm using nouveau driver with a xfce4 desktop, but I'm unable to set the resolution 1280x1024 to work properly, which I'm almost sure that my screen is capable of.
    I managed to set the resolution to 1280x1024 after I manually added new xrandr mode, but there were various strange problems:
    1. Windows or panels that were at the bottom of the screen tend to disappear?!
    2. In the log in screen (I'm using SLIM)can not see what I type
    More than this:
    The screen changes resolution during boot
    There's a strange sound like flick of a switch every time the resolution changes
    I've searched for similar problems but found nothing close to mine, and get more and more confused and i think i'm gonna mess everything up...
    Thanx in advance for the help!

  • Different resolutions in proyector/iMac, same content?

    Hi guys,
    Is it possible to have different resolutions in a proyector and your iMac but to show all your work in both displays at the same time?
    I want to show how to use a software in the proyector using the highest resolution in my iMac, which is different to the one of the proyector. I can't do it without using the mirror display option, which makes that I have the same resolution of the proyector in my iMac Screen, which supports a higher one. It only works for final powerpoint presentations (?).
    Many thanks by the help!

    instead of using the mirror option use the spanning option but in the displays preferance panel click a drag the dock and the menu bar from the "iMac" display to the "other" display this would make your primary screen the projector.
    hope this solves your problem as i don't think there is any other solution

  • Bridge_How Fit-to-Screen with different resolution pictures in Fullscreen/Slideshow

    Hallo,
    I´m looking for a solution for my following problem:
    I have several photographs in totally different resolutions. Some are pretty small, some are huge.
    I want to show them with Bridge in FullScreen-Preview or maybe as a slideshow.
    How can i bring them all to fit the whole screen, even if the resolution is to small to fit regularly.
    In other words, is there an option for dynamic zooming to bring every frame to FIT the Screen, regardless which resolution it got?
    I discovered "scale to fit" in the slideshow options, but it doesnt work for me.
    An zooming every file in the right position and size is not an option.
    Im sure Bridge is able to do it, beacause even IrfanView and ApplePreview are able. But where to find this option?
    Can anybody help?
    Thank you a lot
    best regards
    madlo

    As far as I know, Bridge will not enlarge small images. If you hit '+' on fullscreen preview, it zooms in, but keeps the same zoom for every image.

  • Problems with camera resolution...

    Hi everyone,
    I've acquired a security cam to test a video-chat with FMS2
    and encounter a problem with the resolution of my cam. It's a CPcam
    CPC371P and It is said to have a resolution of 510*492 (certain
    sites speak of standard resolution?).
    I wrote two simple applications, one to send the cam stream
    and one to receive it, here is the code of both my applications :
    Send.fla:
    var my_nc = new NetConnection();
    cam = Camera.get(IndexCam);
    cam.setQuality(0,80);
    cam.setMode(510,492,15,false);
    my_vid.attachVideo(cam);
    my_nc.connect("rtmp://server.no-ip.org/tchat_cam/");
    ns = new NetStream(my_nc);
    ns.attachVideo(cam);
    ns.publish("webcam","live");
    receive.fla
    var my_nc = new NetConnection();
    my_nc.connect("rtmp://server.no-ip.org/tchat_cam/");
    ns = new NetStream(my_nc);
    my_vid.attachVideo(ns);
    ns.play("webcam");
    As you can see, nothing really complicated. The applications
    work perfectly but no matter the resolution I choose, the image
    seems to be extrapolated and pixellised. I tried 512*384,
    510*492(supposed to be the cam res) and 240*160.
    In any case, the image quality is still really poor...
    If anyone could help me on this, Is it a problem with the
    camera, I may have forgotten an option in my stream ???
    Thanks in advance.
    Guaca666.

    After many tests, trying many different resolutions, It seems
    that It can't go beyond a resolution of 510x480...
    Does anyone know if it is the maximum res of a Stream or if
    there is an option to outpass this problem ? It may be the cause of
    the poor final quality of my video as the camera native resolution
    is 510x492...
    If anyone could help me, it would be a great relief... :)

  • How to resize the front panel to fit different resolutions

    I m using LabVIEW 8.2 on Windows XP SP2
    I've tried both “maintain proportions of window for different monitor resolutions” and “scale all objects on front panel as the window resizes” selected but just messed up everything when i switched to another different resolution. It's annoying since I'm using 22 inch monitor to do the coding but the user supposed to run it on laptop or wince.
    Any solutions to it?
    Thx in advance.

    Thank you all. Following is the reply from NI support.  I think the best way is to edit vi in low resolution.
    One of the easiest ways to tackle varying screen resolutions is to design
    the front panel to the lowest resolution that you expect it to run on. It
    should then look acceptable on any screen larger than that.
    However, you can get a bit more tricky by programmatically determining the
    computer's screen resolution and then dynamically changing the size of your
    front panel objects. Use an Application Property Node and select
    Display>>All Monitors to return the current screen size. Then, according to
    the screen size, you can size the control or indicator programmatically
    using the Size property node for your front panel objects.
    Ultimately, these issues have often been a result of font size issues.
    Specifically, this can be a problem when two machines have different
    desktop theme/font settings. If your objects are coming out in different
    sizes on different computers, you can setup up LabVIEW to use the same font
    on different systems by modifying the .INI file.
    The easiest way is to do this: use Tools->Options->Fonts from the LabVIEW
    GUI. You can then set the system fonts to anything you want. After you
    have done this on one machine, open your INI file (it is in the same
    directory as the LabVIEW executable) with any text editor and copy the
    corresponding entries to another file. Add these entries to the INI files
    on any machines you want to lock to font. You will probably run into
    issues if you are supporting different platforms (Windows and Mac or Mac
    and Linux, for example), since the fonts you want may not be available on
    both platforms. There are Windows fonts available for both Mac and Linux
    platforms, so this can be somewhat ameliorated.
    This is all I can think of, but that's not to say these are the only
    solutions. You might check the Discussion Forums, as many of our LabVIEW
    Champions have tackled similar issues and offer their expertise as well.
    Here's just a few threads that I'd like to refer you to:

  • Can I print photos at different resolutions in one PS5 file?

    I am printing photos on fabric. I'd like compare one printed at 300dpi and the same photo at 150 dpi. I was going to set them  side by side on a piece of fabric and realized I had to specify the resolution of the file I'm placing them in. Can I have two files at different resolution in one file? If the new file is of 300dpi resolution how does this affect the image at 150dpi? Thanks!
    Mary

    Hello again,
    thanks so much for helping a newbie sort things out. I'm still confused. I  know that a higher resolution like 300dpi, has more dots per inch and has the potential to give me more detail in print than a lower dpi.
    If I crop a raw file as an 18" square-  I will make it either 150 or 300 dpi.  I'm trying to place two images ( the same images) side by side in a photoshop file to compare the results when they print- (I'm printing with an online vendor). Can I do that? that is, place a 150 dpi image next to a 300 dpi image in one PS file, identified ast  300dpi ? What are the print results? Will both images look the same, or will the 150 dpi be converted to 300 and I won't see any difference anyway?
    Or, do I need to set up two separate files-one at 150 and one at 300, and print them separately, to compare them?
    Can you help me understand this? Thanks!

  • [SOLVED] Configure dual head with different resolutions xf86-video-ati

    I have 1680x1050 and 1280x1024 monitors which I would like to setup so that I have two displays (:0.0 and :0.1), i.e. can't drag a window to the other display, but can move the mouse from one screen to the next. The graphics card is Radeon HD 4850.
    At the moment I have one screen only, so I can't move the mouse from the first to the second screen, it is captive in the first screen.

    It doesn't look as if xrandr can help as it reports a maximum virtual desktop of 1680x1680.
    Because the two monitors are different resolutions I don't know if a single screen is the answer.
    I used to have two displays/screens configured to two different resolutions matching the monitors using the catalyst driver but can't get it working using the xf86-video-ati driver.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Would still be interested to get a seperate display for each monitor working though.
