Screen resolution and Personas

Hi,
When i a design a flavor with 14" monitor and see it in another 14" monitor then it looks fine as designed. But when i see the same flavor in a monitor of size 23" then blank space appears on the right & bottom side of the screen.
Similarly when i design a flavor with 23" monitor and see it on a 14" monitor then a scroll bar appears at bottom & right side of the screen. Entire screen is not visible unless the screen is scrolled.
Is there any setting to make persona smart enough to adjust itself based on the monitor size?
Any help is highly appreciated.
Regards,
Avinash

It isn't documented that you can't do it in Personas 2, no.
How you do it in Personas 3 is documented in this SCN document - Giving an SAP transaction a responsive design with SAP Screen Personas 3.0.

Best screen resolution and output for CBT

What would be the best screen resolution and output mode IYO for a CBT (Computer Based Training) program? We would like to do either CD or online. We are toying with either, so which do you think would be a better option for what Captivate is capable of? Thanks!

Nclarkats,
While most of our employees have similar screen resolutions, a few have larger (or smaller) set ups and since we wish to avoid horizontal and vertical scroll bars; we publish with Captivate's 800 x 600 setting. This allows us to get a bit larger imagery in place.
Whatever you choose, try and pick something and stay consistent. This is beneficial in the event you have to transfer slides between modules.
Hope that helps.

Windows XP Pro Desktop - Screen Resolution and Color Quality

When synchronizing my Zire after many successful and no problems the XP Pro screen resolution reverted to the lowest profile.
I can reset the resolution to the True color 1024 x 768 but after a minute or two it reverts again.
1. Reinstalled driver for Intel video on Compaq D510C motherboard and get same problems as well as corrupted looking graphics on screen.
2. Switched to a known good monitor and same problems (which I did not think was the problem but did to verify).
3. Installed new gForce5200fx graphics card and video still reverts and is corrupted looking even when in higher reset resolution.
4. Created new user to see if user profile was corrupted and still reverts and is corrupted looking even when in higher reset resolution.
Any suggestions?????

Adobe Reader 9.3.4 causes poor screen resolution and unreadable pdf documents. Why?

When I open Reader (9.3.4) the screen resolution becomes very poor - like a color monitor from the early 80's - and text in pdf documents is highlighted black or some other random color, making it unreadable. This has been the case since I upgraded from Reader 8 recently. Any ideas on how to fix this?

To those that tried to assist me with trying to get Reader to display
correctly. Thanks for your assistance.
I resolved the problem by doing a backup of all my files, then formatting the hard drive and reinstalling all programs, from XP to Trend Micro, to Office 2003 and finally Reader 9.
The problem has gone and the speed and stability of my PC has been greatly improved.

Solaris 10 x86 console screen resolution and blank console after exiting X

Hello,
At some point my Solaris 10 machine stopped showing the console after leaving Xorg for the console login. I know the console is active because I can blindly pass the shutdown or other command and it will respond, or after waiting a few minutes will bring the GUI login back. I can see the console before the GUI login while booting but not after. I have a dual output Nvidia 6200 on a 22" LCD running Solaris 10 using the latest Nvidia drivers. I would also like to know if it possible to set the console screen resolution somehow either from the shell or from grub? I have been searching the internet for weeks about this and am unable to find a solution.
TIA,
Brett

After doing even more searching, it looks as if this is an issue with Nvidias drivers. At least similar issues on Linux and FreeBSD that I have seen. Anyone know of a fix other than reverting to much older drivers? Still cannot find any info on setting the console screen resolution, though I can't even see it at the moment unless I refrain from ever starting X again. There has to something similar to vga= that's used in Linux. Anyone?

Windows XP Pro Desktop - Screen Resolution and Color Quality - After Palm 6.2 Installation for Palm TX

Recently upgraded my Palm software to 6.2. for my TX. Now when I sync to Outlook, my windows desktop reverts to lower quality screen resolution (640 x 480 pixels) and lower color quality (8 bit).
I then make the necessary display changes for my windows desktop back to higher quality screen resolution (1280 x 800 pixels) and highest color quality (32 bit). Everything is fine until I sync again or shut down the computer and restart, causing the windows desktop to revert back to the lower quality screen.
Any thoughts on possible solutions to this annoying problem.
Thank you
Post relates to: Palm TX

Hello!
First thing to do is to update the display driver for your computer. Also make sure to use 96 DPI for the DPI setting, using another setting can cause this issue too.

Current screen resolution and availability of soundcard under Mac???

Hi
How can I define current screen resolution under Mac OS X?
Under Windows I use function baScreenInfo("width"),
baScreenInfo("height")
for this purpose or baMultiDisplayInfo("primary", "width")
etc
The same question concerns to availability of soundcard
Under Windows I can define, if the soundcard is installed
using function
basoundCard()
What about mac OS X ?
Any help will be appreciated
game_dev

You don't need buddyAPI to find out the user's screen
dimensions. You can just ask for the desktopRectList. This will
give you a list of screen rects. If there is more than one rect in
the list, then the first one is the user's primary screen. All macs
have built in sound. You don't need to check for sound for a mac
user.

Changing screen resolution and rotation more easily?

Hi!
I frequently switch between two screen configurations of my LCD: the standard 1024x768 and 768x1024 rotated in portrait mode. The switching process is somewhat tedious:
open sys preferences,
select 90° rotation -> Mac OS switches to 1024x768 rotated
(which my monitor doesn't support -> fuzzy display)
click OK to confirm new resolution
select 768x1024
click OK in dialog
click OK to confirm new resolution
I wish I could use the menu bar thing to switch resolutions, but it doesn't offer rotation. Even if I could eliminate the two-step resolution switching, it would save a lot of trouble. I've tried editing the plist file in /Library/Preferences, but my mini seems to ignore it.
Any suggestions?
thanks

Screen resolution and published output

Hi Gurus
I am recording content using 5.5 using a laptop with resolution of 1366 x 768.
Created a blank project with resolution of 1024 x 768. When I publish this and then select Yes at the prompt "...Do you wish to view the output?" it requires quite a bit of scrolling down to see the Playback Control (as you might expect).
Created a blank project with resolution of 800 x 600. When I publish this and then select Yes at at the prompt "...Do you wish to view the output?" it requires less scrolling down to see the Playback Control (as you might also expect).
Here's the bit that I don't get. When I open the .swf files directly, they both "size" to fit the browser window and no scrolling is required to see the Playback Control. The only difference, of course, is that the lower resolution capture has less screen area covered. I am using IE7.
I had expected that the output when opening the .swf files would be the same as when I view after publish - kind of threw me there for a while.
Can someone kindly shed some light on this?
Thanks
Lynton123

Viewing the published files by launching the HTM page that has the SWF embedded will display the SWF at a fixed height and width that is set to the same height and width found in your project.
Launching the SWF directly by double-clicking it will cause it to be displayed in the web browser but it will maximise or shrink to whatever height or width is available. This is just the way that SWFs work in browsers when not embedded in a HTM wrapper.
So why wouldn't you want it to always work this way? Well, just launching the SWF is NOT going to give you all the functionality you need in many cases. For example, any functionality like SCORM or right-mouse-click that depends on JavaScript will not be available to you unless you launch via the HTM file. Secondly, resizing the SWF content to a different height/width ration than what it was created at will inevitably sacrifice some crispness in the output. This is especially evident with software screenshots for tutorials and simulations.

Set screen resolution, and full screen view mode (F11)

Hi,
I have a jsp page which only looks right in 1280x1024. Can I write some kind of code to set the browser to always be 1280x1024 and the view mode to be full screen regardless of the client's setting?
I would like to thank all for responding to my previous questions/problems.

Hi,
after all, try <body onload="window.resizeTo(width,height);">. It works for me. You can also turn off navigation bars etc. See http://forums.devarticles.com/javascript-development-22/change-window-size-and-nav-bar-status-on-page-load-2091.html for example - or google "javascript resize window".
However, I don't know of a method to set the window to an F11-like fullscreen mode.

I've upgraded from snow leopard to mountain lion and now my screen resolution and mouse pointer are messed up. My dock doesn't show up on the screen and the login is half off the screen on the right. Only seeing the top left quadrant screen.

I have already tried changing the resolution in system preferences. It didn't do anything.

Please confirm what Mac this is - this is the iMac (Intel) community, but your profile says Mac Pro.
If the latter, provide some info about the monitor.

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.

Skippy-xd and cairo-dock ignore screen resolution in openbox

Hey, this is the first time I'm posting since I usually solve my problem using this forum and google but I this time they failed me.
I recently switched from gnome to openbox and in the process of making myself comfortable I installed first skippy-xd and then cairo-dock.
I had to set the screen resolution (1920x1080), which was too low in the beginning, using xrandr and while trying to solve my problem I also created "/etc/X11/xorg.conf-d/10-monitor.conf". Unfortunately skippy-xd seems to ignore the new resolution when I enter the window picker and I end up having the window overview only covering a part of my screen. First I thought that was a skippy-xd specific problem but after installing cairo-dock I noticed, that the dock got displayed at the bottom of the same "window" that skippy occupied. So I guess there has to be some underlying problem that causes both of these programs to ignore my set screen resolution and instead go with the one openbox assigned to me in the beginning.
The same configuration works flawless on my laptop. And I search google up and down in order to find a solution.
Thanks in advance,
meloxu

I saw your post, and had found it incredulous that you have a 1920x1080 display. A bit of research and I found I was wrong.
So, it appears you are driving the panel at its native resolution. Unfortunately, trying to determine what you mean by "Fuzzy" is probably going to be like trying to nail Jello to a tree. But, let's give it a shot. Is it fuzzy before you start X? Are lines and shapes fuzzy? Or is it just text that is fuzzy?
If it is just fonts, it could be a problem with hinting. Hinting is where the edges of fonts are deliberately fuzzed and feathered to get the kerning correct when the physical pixels of the display don't quite line up. This works well, unless the thing doing the hinting does not understand the geometry of the display. In a color LCD, each pixel is actually made up of smaller sub pixels, generally three -- A red, a green, and a blue. Green is usually in the middle. Some displays have Two greens per pixel, arranged RGBG. Some displays even have yellow subpixels. Sometimes the subpixels are arranged left to right, sometimes they are arranged top to bottom. Long story short, if you have hinting enabled, but the geometry is configured incorrectly, bad things happen. Take a look at this wiki article
