What screen resolution are all of you designing for?

I realize a liquid layout is ideal, but even liquid layouts have an "ideal" resolution the design is built around.
What minimum width are you guys designing for? (ie, 960px for 1024px resolutions)

Depending on the design I use anywhere from 950 to 1000 pixel widths.

Thanks for your answer. Mind if I pick your brain regarding these choices?
By my calculations (using latest Windows + latest IE, which represent the majority) the window border occupies 8px on each side.I just measured it a few seconds ago.
The scrollbar occupies an additional 17 pixels on the right side.
Total : 33px of the horizontal viewable area is taken up by the browser.
This would mean that when catering to 1024 screens - which you clearly are - the sweet spot would be 1024 - 33 = 991 pixels max with a borderless design (ie, margin:0 on the body).
Knowing this, why would you ever use 1000px wide? If you were catering to 1280, then you'd want 1280 - 33 = 1247 pixels max. Or are you referring to centered designs that don't scroll?
Is there a conscious and calculated reason why you'd limit yourself to 950px when you've got 40 more to work with, or why you'd unnecessarily force a horizontal scrollbar on all 1024 screen resolutions by designing @ 1000px?

What screen resolutions are available on His-res 15" MacBook Pro?

Hi. I can see in the apple web site specs what the various screen resolution settings are for the standard resultion, 1440x900,
15" MacBook Pro (1440x900, 1280x800, 1152x720, etc.)
But what are the settings available for the 15" MacBook Pro with the hi-res (glossy to be specific) screen?
I know the native resolution is 1680x1050. Are the other settings as for the standard res also available?
And while I have your attention, does anyone know what type of LCD panels are used on the standard and hi-res displays?
TN, PVA, IPS ?

What screen sizes are best to use?

What screen sizes are best to use. Looking at the responsive design in Captivate 8, the screen sizes do not make a lot of sense. I am not sure if I am misunderstanding them or not. The tablet size is 768 x 627, yet an iPad 4 is 1024 x 768. The Samsung is equally different. The same goes for the phone size. Am I missing something? I would like to use my phone in landscape mode.
Thanks

You can edit the break points in Responsive Design. It is not the real resolution of the devices that is important, but the browser resolution. Moreover you have to take into account extra space like for the playbar (45 pixels).
To check the resolutions, this site can be useful: http://viewportsizes.com/
You'll see that for most smartphones the browser resolution is much smaller then the real resolution of the device. I have a HTC One, 1920x1080 but the browser resolution in Portrait has only a width of 360. in Landscape 640.
There are so many devices around, you'll have to choose the ones you are aiming at. It is a real jungle, sorry. Not to speak of the different browsers with each a different support of HTML5.

Screen resolution in all the programs is really low.

I recently bought CS6 and the screen resolution in all the programs is extremely low. The tools and the content of the documents. I have checked the preferences and I don't see a problem or an option to increase the quality.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks

If this is a retina Mac there is nothing you can do about it. CS6 is not optimized for retina.
If that’s not what you’re talking about we’ll need some real details.

What screen resolution in iPad 3?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
A 3rd generation iPad has got a 2048x1536 resolution, the same as a 4th generation iPad. This is because both include Retina display

TS3147 Where are all the print settings for my HP Officejet 5510 in Mac OS X 10.8.2? I can't find Normal, just Draft and Best.

Where are all the print settings for my HP Officejet 5510 in Mac OS X 10.8.2?? I only have Fast, Fast B & W, and Best. I want Normal so that it looks good but doesn't print so slowly. Help.

Hi,
Change the print settings manually by clicking the lowest drop-down within the print dialog (e.g. the application name, Copies & Pages within MSOffice.
Select Type/Quality and set the print quality as Normal.
You may seve the settings as a Preset from the Presets drop-down menu.

My TV has only 2 HDMI conections that are all ready in use for Directv and the Blueray. Can I use composed cables to conect Apple TV

My TV has only 2 HDMI conections that are all ready in use for Directv and the Blueray. Can I use composed cables to conect Apple TV

I'm going to take a guess and say that if your TV has 2 HDMI ports, it also has a component input (5 wire). I'm also going to guess that either your DirecTv or your Blueray has a component output option. If I had this setup, I would put my DTV on the component option and use the open HDMI port for the ATV2.
I doubt you will be able to tell the difference on your DTV. Most of the stores that demo HD use component wiring on their store models. The only downside is that you may be giving up the highest sound (Dobly 5.1 or whatever they call it.)
Or you could just go to switching the HDMI cords from your BluRay to the ATV2 depending on which one you are watching. I think I use my BluRay about 5% or less of my viewing time. If I "tossed", I wouldn't shed a tear.

I just downloaded Itunes on my phone and it needed to update a os1. I have new icons now but it erased all my contacts. Is that normal? Are all my contacts gone for good?

I just bought a square and in order to use it I needed to download Itunes with OS1. I did it but now I have no contacts, is that normal? Are all my contacts gone for good?

There is no iTunes download for any iOS device.

What camera raw default settings would you use for the Canon 5D Mark 3. I have PS CS6. Thank you.

What camera raw default settings would you use for the Canon 5D Mark 3. I have PS CS6. Thank you.

Really, this is a question you should be asking yourself...
What do you shoot? Makes a difference...
Typical ISO that you shoot? Makes a difference...
Shooting for clients or yourself? Makes a difference...
Look, there is no magic bullet...the ACR/LR "Default" should only be changed for those adjustments you make 70-90% of the time and sould not be confused with image by image adjustments...
So, as asked, your question can not really be answered other than to say, use a default that suits you.

What Screen Resolution should I Design For?

Hi,
For APEX applications in public sites, what should be the proper screen resolution should I design for? Also, when I put something like a chart in a region, the size of the chart is always fixed. Therefore, it may not fit a particular screen size. I am wondering what should be the proper screen resolution I should target for - considering different desktop monitors and tablets?
Thanks.

Also, when I put something like a chart in a region, the size of the chart is always fixed. Therefore, it may not fit a particular screen size. I think it is OK to have some elements with a fixed size, like charts and images, while the rest of the page resizes itself. Charts are a problem because I don't think you can give them a "width=100%" as you can do with images. I think it depends on your audience. If only 5% of users will see the page in a small screen, you should use a big chart, and vice-versa. Or have two charts, one big and one small, and dynamically hide/show them based on the screen size?
If you use Apex 4.2, it has very interesting themes. For instance, I was surprised to see how fluid this page I created was:
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=65861:3:0::NO::P3_ROWID:AAjQ4rAGlAAAADUAAB
If you make the browser window narrow enough, the order items region will move underneath the customer orders region... Cool! :)
(using CTRL+ to make the page bigger doesn't do the trick though...)

What screen protector and case will you be buying for your new ipad (3rd generation)?

Hello!
I'd like to know what types of cases people will be buying for their new ipad this coming Friday as well as what type of screen protector/body guard you'd recommend.
I've been looking online trying to find places that would be able to ship before Friday, but I'm not sure which one to go with, there's too many options! I'm definitely interested in a leather folio case though.
I've also been wondering what type of screen protector to put on. I've seen the iVisor anti-glare, and I really like how it works, but seriously... anti-glare on a retina display? I don't know... any thoughts on that or suggestions? I'd greatly appreciate it!!
Thanks!

I had an anti-glare screen protector on my iPad 2 and it degraded the quality of the screen so much I removed it. I have a clear skin on the back, which I like. It prevents scratches to the aluminum back and provides a gripping surface to hold on to. The iPad itself was slippery so that extra grip factor helps me. I use a smart cover for the front, because I like the features it has and the quick removability when docking the iPad. I also like that it automatically sleeps and wakes the iPad thereby conserving power. I chose the polyurethane smart cover because I had heard many issues with the leather covers fading/losing color and I couldn't justify the $30.00 dollar difference in price. I dock my iPad into an iHome theater device regularly, so using a portfolio type case would be too cumbersome to deal with. I do think portfolio cases or the otter box cases provide more protection, but they add more bulk to the iPad than I care to deal with. In the end it comes down to personal preference based on your particular needs. The items I have listed and the reasons for them fit my needs, I'm sure others will have different configurations that are specific to their needs. Hope this helps,
Bob
