Games - increase the screen size (full screen) - is it possible?

Hello

I have a Windows XP virtual machine on my VMware Workstation 9.0.2. I tried to run a cup of old games, like for example, Diablo, which I am not able to play on my physical computer and it works - what is cool there. The only problem I have is that I'm not able to make the game fit the full screen of my virtual machine. However I tried different sizes of my computer virtual screen, the game still appears as a small square in the Middle, where the rest of the virtual machine screen remains black. Is it possible to fix it on VMware Workstation? I tried to change the resolution of my virtual machine, but it was not useful.

PS. of course, I know that I can change a resolution of my physical machine to increase the size of the game in the virtual machine screen, but it does not completely solve the problem, it's just to do a little better.

Thank you much for the help.

Many older games use a fixed resolution, ignoring what you set on your desktop.

You can try to change the VM fullscreen and "Guest Stretch" setting in the display preferences.

  • Is there a way to increase the text size in Windows 8 applications?

    Is there a way to increase the text size in Windows 8 applications?

    I find the way to text size too small in most news reader applications.  Looks like you should be able to increase or decrease the text size the same thing you do in a browser using CTRL + or CTRL-, or your mouse wheel.

    You can increase the size of the text on the desktop, but it doesn't have any effect on the subway, or whatever you call it today.

    Probably, there should be a setting to increase the size of the text under settings of PC!

    IMO, I would probably find a lot of people out there wouldn't buy a W8 Tablet since the text is to small to read!  This has fixed as soon as POSSIBLE!

    Edit: I noticed that a lot of Apps is updated to help with this problem.  Unfortunately not on the main screen of App, if you select an item to read the improvement will become visible or selectable.

    Hello

    On the start screen simply type the word "police" and select the filter settings on the right.  You should see an option 'Make text and other items more or less '.  Click on that and adjust the text or at the desired size.

    These instructions don't change the DPI of the screen ratio when it is in the classic user of Windows interface. The new interface Windows username however does not change when this setting is changed (which, in itself, is rather unfortunate).

    The only way to change the font size of Windows apps Store is as follows:

    1. click on the Start button to get the new user of Windows interface

    2 start typing 'police' (without the quotes)

    3. click on "settings".

    4. click on "enlarge everything on your screen; This opens the settings of PC (which is different from the classic Configuration screen)

    5. set "Enlarge everything on your screen" on it.

    Personally, I still find it too small for a lot of apps, but it's a small improvement on the default settings.

    Sign of salvation,

    Welcome to the Microsoft community forum. From the description of the problem, it seems that you want to change the font size for the user interface modern app.

    You can change the modern user interface text size by going to the charms > settings > change the settings of the PC > PC and peripherals > display

    Also see this Microsoft article:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-8/make-text-screen-larger-smaller/?v=t

    Windows 8.1, you can now set the DPI (Dots per Inch) scale to make text and other items, such as icons, fonts and windows, to more or less important for all display or by display screens.

    Windows 8.1 DPI scale improvements are mainly focused on:

    • Optimization of ergonomics and the readability of displays high-resolution
    • Offering an experience uniform multi-screen systems
    • Give developers optimize app specific scale based on display DPI

    If you are using a resolution of 1366 x 768 display on a shelf, chances are that UI will look good 100% ppp settings. But what about when you connect the tablet to an external high resolution? In Windows 8, you can choose either 100% in order to optimize the user interface on the screen of the tablet or display up to 150% in order to optimize the user interface on the outside. You have to make compromises.

    8.1 Windows takes care of this issue pressing address scaling of IPR by display . By default, Windows 8.1 will choose the optimal DPI scaling value for each display based on the value selected for the global scaling in the control panel.

  • Can you increase the font size in the bridge?

    I have a new laptop with a screen 13 inches 3200 x 1800.  Size of the police in the bar menu is OK, but all the fonts in the panels is so tiny that I can't read, even with my glasses ready.  Seriously, that's about 20% the size of the font of menu bar.  Is it possible to increase the font size of Panel?

    From now on, no, but I would not be surprised to see it implemented at some point. I have heard talk of some registry hacks out there, but if you're not a techie, not try.

    I have a 4 k screen on my laptop.  Web sites fine-scale but when I'm in an Adobe Connect session, the scale is far and the font size seems to be something like pt.5, if that.  Is there a way to increase the font size of the Acrobat Connect Pro sections?  Change the resolution on my laptop does not solve the problem.Capture.JPG

    This is the resolution that I get no matter if I'm at 1024 x 768 or 3840 x 2160.  It's too hard for my split screen to be read by others.

  • Is it possible to increase the font size on web pages? I can increase the size of the page but then lose the ability to see the entire page.

    I've just updated El Capitan, but the font size on web pages went all teeny weeny.

    I was wondering if we could increase the font size? The page can expand via "zoom in", but then lose the ability to view the web page in the blink of an eye.

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes.  Open the Terminal app and type the following command followed by the Enter key or return:

    : write com.apple.Safari com.apple.Safari.ContentPageGroupIdentifier.WebKit2MinimumFontSize - int XX

    (triple click on the line to select it to copy and paste into the Terminal application).

    Change the XX to the font size you want as the minimum font by default.

    Or you can use a css style sheet.  This site describes it and the Terminal method: specify Minimum font size in Safari 10.0, macOS Sierra

  • How to increase the font size. the details of what to do via the options did not work at all.

    I went through the firefox to the options tab, font size of content options and an increase of 16 including on the Advanced tab. looks still unchanged at font size 10.
    any ideas please?

    Perhaps unchecking (via the advanced under the content tab button) which reads "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above" will help you.

    Also FYI, when you browse websites using CTRL and "+" (that is, the plus sign) will increase the font size. CTRL and "-" (minus sign) will reduce the font size. and CTRL and "0" (zero) will restore the original font size.
