Lego mindstorms: Is it possible to change the fixed user interface size of 1024 x 800 to smaller for use with netbooks?

I teach at a school that is using netbooks next
year - the screen size is 1024 x 576 for one model and 1024 x 600 for another model and color quality is 32 bit.  To
our dismay, when we loaded Lego Mindstorms software to test it, we
discovered that the user interface is fixed at 1024 x 800, which means
the control panel at the bottom of the screen is inaccessible on the
netbooks.  Is there a way to change the  interface size so that we can
use the software on netbooks?  This is a serious issue for us!  Thanks
for any help.
I posted this question in the LabView for Lego Enthusiasts forum, but noticed that nothing new has been posted by the moderator since 2007.  That's why I posted it in an active forum.  Thanks.

  • This advertised application will not be installed because it might be unsafe. Contact your administrator to change the installation user interface option of the package to basic.

    Hi there,
    I was wondering whether anyone could tell me which feature in Windows 7 produces this message "This advertised application will not be installed because it might be unsafe. Contact your administrator to change the installation user interface option of
    the package to basic." and whether it can be turned off in Windows to prevent this message from appearing when installing certain programs that aren't WHQL certified. At first I thought it was the UAC control that generated this message but found out
    that it wasn't and then thought it was the DEP control and found out that it wasn't this either. I'm only seem to be getting this message when installing FileDirector Component Service Version 3 on a few of our workstations which is an add-on that allows file
    integration with Office and is part of FileDirector WinClient Version 3.
    Your help would be much appreciated.
    Many thanks,
    RocknRollTim
    P.S. I know of a way to bypass this message but would ideally not like to have the feature turned on and for the message not to be appear for non WHQL certified program installations in order to make non WHQL certified program installations in the future much
    easier, more simpler and straightforward to carry out. I was redirected by a moderator off the Microsoft Community Forum.

    Hi,
    You can try following options to disable this prompt, but we don't recommend you to do so since this feature helps you to protect your computer.
    Option 1: Run command as admin:
    bcdedit -set loadoptions DDISABLE_INTEGRITY_CHECKS
    bcdedit -set TESTSIGNING ON
    Restart your computer to apply changes.
    Option 2: Disable in GPO:
    1.Type gpedit.msc in the Run dialog and press Enter.
    2.In the Group Policy Editor, navigate to User Configuration → Administrative Templates → System → Driver Installation.
    3.Double-click on Code signing for device drivers in the right-side pane as shown above.
    4.In the windows that opens, choose Enabled. In the Options, choose Ignore as shown. Then click on the OK button to save the settings.
    Restart your computer to apply changes.

  • Does anyone know if it is possible to change the display in week view to show 24 hours per day for those of us that work irregular hours

    Does anyone know if it is possible to change the display in week view to show all 24 hours per day for those of us that work irregular hours.
    Also is it possible to have all of the 'all day' entries showing, not just 3.5 of them.
    The app Week Cal HD was the perfect calendar until Apple removed it so could they please offer the same facilities that it offered.

  • Is it possible to change the font and font-size in Richtooltip?

    Hiya,
    For "RichTooltip" I'd like to change the font and/or font-size is that possible?
    Is it possible to change the size of the tooltip box so that it is wider?
    Currently my tooltip looks quite ugly:
    I tried reading the help but I couldn't find a way to do this using the API for sap.ui.commons.RichTooltip
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi,
    you can use something like this for formatted text.
    <script>
                var oTextField = new sap.ui.commons.TextField({
                      valueState : sap.ui.core.ValueState.Error
                }).placeAt("content");
                var sHtml = "The rating specifies the trustworthiness of the account. You can choose between the following values:<br>";
                sHtml += "<ul>";
                sHtml += '<li><strong>A:</strong> <font color="blue", size ="2px" family="Helvetica">Highly trustworthy</font></li>';
                sHtml += "<li><strong>B:</strong> In generel trustworthy but some weak moments</li>";
                var oRttTextField = new sap.ui.commons.RichTooltip({
                      text : sHtml
                oTextField.setTooltip(oRttTextField);
                </script>
          </head>
          <body class="sapUiBody" role="application">
                <div id="content"></div>
          </body>

  • Am i able to change the ipod user interface?

    does anyone know how i can change the ipod user interfce? im getting really bored with the user interface right now. any advice or tips would be much appreciated. thx

    Unless you want to put iPodLinux on it, thus ending your warranty and perhaps really messing up your iPod, you can't change the interface.

  • Is it possible to change the font style and size of the front panel title?

    Can you change the style and size of the Front Panel Window title?  I seem to have no luck.  I seem to be stuck with only 1 font/style.  I would like to use a superscript for 1 of the letters in the title.  Is this possible?  If it isn't this would be a nice feature to have in the future.  I am using LabVIEW 8.5.1.

    Things like the window title font is a function of Windows - not LV. You can change it globally, but not on a window by window basis.

  • Is it possible to change the font name and size without having to compile?

    Dear All
    We have one requirement that we need to change the font name and font size at run time dynamically without having to compile all the forms in 6i.
    Is there any way or work around to achieve the same.Kindly suggest us.
    something like using uifont.ali or forms60_defaultfont, or set_item_property
    Thanks and Regards
    Thangaraj.

    Dear All,
    Thanks for your updates, Technically what both of you said is correct. but in application server we used something like ClientDPI to match the client server font with the application server, i need to know that is there anyother way something like this...?
    I have read one document(Note:28397.1 in metalink) saying that using uifont.ali file we can change the font at run time, but i have used this only for report
    Thanks and Regards

  • When is it possible to have the same User Interface for all screensizes?

    Hi all, i am final year student doing some research about User Interface Fragmentation on Mobile devices. As we already know, there are a huge variety of mobile screen sizes, and usually to provide users the best experience interfaces, we often have to customize the UI of one application in one phone to another. So i wondered when it is OK to have the same UI for all screen sizes?
    Thanks.

    It's usually OK if you don't use CustomItem, avoid extra-long Strings in titles etc. You might also need to scale any Canvas / GameCanvas graphics and Images using a scaling factor computed from the detected screen size.
    I have 3 applications for free download from GetJar.com (search "Colorz") which have only the one version for all MIDP 2.0 devices, and there have been no complaints in a combined total of over 11,000 downloads ;-)
    In any case, UI diversity is the least of the headaches any j2me developer faces, there are many features of j2me that are unimplemented or incorrectly implemented on various devices. Even the CLDC reference implementation has unaddressed bugs.
    luck, db

  • Is it possible to change the Registered user name on a Developer key?

    We are looking for a solution for a person that has a name change and has a developer key? 
    Do you have to create a new key for this or can the name be changed?

    Dear Brian,
    I believe you can change name (Last Name, First Name, and Title etc.) in transaction SU01. I doubt if you need to generate new key for the same.

  • How does one install non-English character sets for use with the "find" function in Acrabat Pro 11?

    I have pdf files in European languages and want to be able to enter non-English characters in the "find" function. How does one install other character sets for use with Acrobat Pro XI?

    Have you tried applying the update by going to Help>Updates within Photoshop Lightroom?  The update should be using the same licensing?  Did you perhaps customize the installation location?  Finally which operating system are you using?

  • Is it possible to change the number of weeks to be displayed in the month view in calendar (mavericks)?

    I'd like to know if it's possible to change the number of weeks to be displayed in the month view in calendar? Thanks!

    No.
    There are up to six calendar weeks that might be used to display the 31 possible days in a month.
    So the month view displays six weeks.

  • Is it possible to change the ALV report layout settings in spool request

    Hi All,
    Please let me know is it possible to change the ALV layout settings in background as we can change the layout settings in foreground to get correct format when download to excel.
    Regards,

    Hello,
    Add a parameter for layout on selection-screen (p_varmm LIKE disvariant-variant).
    As you are in backgroud mode, ALV will be printed with this layout (assuming you call correctly the MF ALV_LIST or REUSE_ALV_GRID)

  • Is it possible to change the color of the text in one specific field?

    If I want to make someone's mobile number show up as the primary contact, is it possible to make the text for that number a different color or make it bold? I can't seem to find a way to do it.
    Thanks.

    Make a Shape > Inspector > Graphic > Tinted Image Fill > Scale to fit > browse to image > click on the color patch to change the color to what you want
    or
    Drag in an image > overlay it with a Shape > select the color for the shape and change its Opacity
    Shapes may have Gradient and Advanced Gradient (multiple colors) fills both linear and radial. Both are in the Graphic Inspector as is Opacity.

  • Recently, I discovered I have two iCloud accounts. Is it possible to change the Apple ID from one account to match the second account, without losing the information on each account?

    Recently, I discovered I have two iCloud accounts. Is it possible to change the Apple ID for one of the accounts to match the other account, without losing the information from either account.
    thanks

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    It's a little tricky to move data from one iCloud account to another but it can be done. But what makes you think you have 2 iCloud accounts.

  • Is it possible to change the video card of a pavilion g7-1075dx?

    So, I have an HP Pavilion g7-1075dx Notebook with Windows 7. I'm an avid gamer and wish to play the newest games. However, there's one problem thats keeping me from doing so. Alot of the newer games require newer video/graphics cards. This particular laptop has an ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250. The newest games seem to require ATI Radeon HD 4850 and above. This is the only thing thats keeping me from playing games like Starcraft II on the highest settings OR in the case of Star Wars: The Old Republic, it almost keeps me from playing the game, period, due to the graphics being too much for my current card to handle, causing massive lag. I was hoping I could change the video card. Upgrade. However, i've heard that with most laptops or notebooks you can't upgrade anything other than the RAM. I'm hoping anyone on here can help me out and tell me if it is possible to get a new video card for my laptop. We don't have a desktop computer so this laptop is my only hope for a long time to play newer PC games.

    Alright, let me put this in a simpler message: Does anyone know if it is possible to change the video card currently in my laptop, the HP Pavilion g7-1075dx, for a newer and better one. ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4250 to ATI Radeon HD 4850 or higher.
