Optimization of the screen

Recently, I reloaded my operating system. Now, the screen is smaller with about 3 inches of unused space on the left and right. The texext is much smaller, but I have the zoom to 100%. If I Zoom in to a % higher, the screen is off-center and everything is not centered. Is it possible to adjust to the screen (with the exception of the toolbar) and have proportionally correct evertything? I have seacrched everywhere and cand find a way to adapt it, very frustrating.

Thank you

Hey Matthelm

you need to reinstall the latest graphics drivers for your machine after doing a reinstall

go to your computer or graphics card manufacturer site and are looking for the driver download section

Search your computer or graphics card model number based on what you have and download and install the latest graphics drivers for vista

THEN try to make the screen of solution of problems

Change the screen resolution

Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

For example, 640 × 480 is a lower screen resolution, and 1600 × 1200 is higher. CRT monitors generally display a resolution of 800 × 600 or 1024 × 768. LCD monitors can better support the higher resolutions. If you can increase your screen resolution depends on the size and capability of your monitor and the type of video card you have.

Text and images are sharper and smaller at high screen resolutions
Text is larger and easier to read at low screen resolutions, but images are rasterized and number of items adapted to the screen
  1. Open display settings by clicking on the button start , by clicking on the Control Panel, click appearance and personalization, clickingPersonalization, and clickingDisplay parameters.

  2. Under resolution, move the slider to the desired resolution, then clickApply.

Notes

  • When you change the screen resolution, it affects all users who log on the computer.

  • When you set your monitor to a screen resolution that it will not support, the screen will go black for a few seconds while the monitor returns to the original resolution

    You can also try to optimize Internet Explorer.

    1. Open Internet Explorer.
    2. Click Security, and then click delete browsing history.
    3. In delete the browsing history area, click Remove.

    A progress bar is displayed to indicate that the browsing history is currently disabled. Once this process is complete, test Internet Explorer to verify that it works correctly.

  • No message signal to s-video input on the screen - how to remove it?

    I pressed a button on my monitor by mistake, and now I have a blue box with the message "no s-video input signal" on the screen at all times.  It's annoying because it's in the upper right corner, covering the buttons I use to close, reduce and optimize windows.

    I tried right click but nothing happens.  How can I get rid of this error message?

    Hi AnneHotmail,

    1 What is the message appear after you restart the computer?

    2 are you able to show display on monitor other than the blue message box?

    3 is this a laptop or desktop?

    I suggest that you restart the computer and check if it works.

    If restarting does not solve the problem, then check and ensure that the monitor is connected correctly to the computer.

    Also try the method below and check if it works.

    (a) turning the computer off.

    (b) disconnect all cables from their bottom or the sides of the monitor (particularly the power cord). Unplug the power supply cord releases all their reset circuit locks

    (c) press and hold the power monitor for 5 seconds button

    (d) plug the monitor power cord

    (e) turn on your computer and check if it helps.

    If the previous step fails, then you will need to consult the manual of the monitor to restore its default settings or contact the supplier of the monitor.

  • The documents do not fill the screen.

    Why the documents that I opened not to fill the screen.  There is a border of 1/2 inch around the document.  If I optimize the document, it fills the screen.

    Make sure that the last act of this show is maximized when you close and also expanded the program and make sure that close the program until you hit shutdown.  The next time you use this program, it should open larger (but not until you close the program - if you do this and open another window before closing the program, this new window opens also not full screen) at least that you shut up when not expanded not or it ends badly.  Sometimes this happens when the program turning off incorrecctly or abruptly.

    I hope this helps.

  • window appears on the extended screen, but the screen isn't there anymore so can't get to the window (2nd screen on laptop is only when it is connected to the desktop)

    Hi... interesting problem. I use my laptop computer on a desk with a second screen and moving.

    The last time I was using my laptop on the desk, I brought an application (Quicken) on the second screen and now when I start it up it displays on-screen extended even if I use the standalone laptop. I can't demand because it appears in the second screen and I can't get it back to the main screen. I even rebooted and it seems to 'remember' where is was the last time.

    Any thoughts on how to get it back (I know I can reconnect the second screen and move it back, but what about the time when I'm not near my office and want to access an application that was last used on the extended screen.)

    Argh...

    Thanks for your thoughts, I assume that there is a simple key sequence to make it visible on the main screen once I can't find it anywhere.

    Kind regards

    Very late reply, I have the same problem and I solve it hovering over the window you want in the taskbar when the preview window displays a right-click on it.  Select optimize.  The window will appear on your screen.  No, you can enter the window and its size down, it stays on the current view

  • Add images to the Manager of the screens.

    Hello

    My screen is a screen, and I have a title and a status of the screen. I want to put the image to fit the middle section of the Manager. I don't need to know how to scale an image I know how to do this. All I need is how to central section width and height to resize the image to fit perfectly.

    Unfortunately you won't know that until the moment of the page layout.

    The way I think than anything approaching whether to put a scroll not use all height and width Manager in the 'middle' bit and paint the image sized as the background to that.  do the scaling in the context of the sublayout.  You will need to add all your fields to this optimization of resources, rather than just for display.

  • Click tasks on the Web page of my bar, it opens the top 1/3 of the screen. Windows & Internet Explorer

    I then have to click on optimize for the full screen.  Settings correct?

    The difference between links and Favorites in the taskbar

    'Links' in the toolbar indicate that you clicked on the taskbar then choose toolbars selected tools and links.  The structure of toolbar, that which adds to the task bar is in fact of 'Favorites' - a subfolder of Internet Explorer Favorites.  You may also choose to display the bookmarks at the top of your window bar of: alt, v, toolbars, Favorites bar [and the importance of the bookmarks bar is the ability to display in this way - I do that and have found it very useful because it allows me to make favorite folders subfolders each appear as a small menu in the Favorites bar].  You can see it clearly if you have a nose autour C:\Users\yourusername\Favorites using Windows Explorer.

    When you drag something to the links, then drag it to the part of the favorite folder structure the confirmation dialog, you see so makes sense.

    The main question

    You have open IE, and then that you double-click an internet shortcut & it opens to the size of the window of IE?  Yes, it's what I expected, so I think that I do not understand what you wrote.

  • White lines fixed with optimization of the art - is - it possible to copy with this setting?

    I have seen discussions on the white lines, you get on the edges of the objects due to anti-aliasing in Illustrator, and I found that when exporting, you can remove them by setting 'optimized art' in one of the options there.

    For those who do not know the issue of the white line:

    Sometimes, when the Illustrator blend the pixels around an object, it puts a thin white line around it that always appears 1 thick px any zoom level.

    Not really there and when it printed disappears. Trouble is, even when you export the document, or a copy of objects in other software for the use of the screen, it's still there.

    Many people think that white line is a tiny space, but it is not.

    People also tend to tell you that it is because you have two objects butted against another. Also, this is not true. The white line persists even on overlapping forms.

    People will also say it is when two shapes on top of the other follow the same path. Yet once, is not true. White lines appear even when you have only 1 object following a particular path.

    My problem is that I rarely export an entire document at once, but tend to copy items to it in Photoshop. When I do, the white lines traveling with her and becomes permanent. Even on a .jpg, .png, or .gif image file, the lines are still visible.

    What I want to know is, is it possible to copy objects in Illustrator using optimization of art?

    Or y at - it another way to copy them without taking these white lines with me?

    I know that I can get rid of them by turning anti-aliasing off the coast, but everything really looks pixelated, so it is not much better.

    In addition, anti-aliasing is not actually solve the problem, it just hides it. Even with the power off, when I copy the affected objects to Photoshop, the white lines reappear in Photoshop.

    And please don't bother the answer for me, explaining what the white lines are, or how to get rid of them or how to lose them in the export. I know all that.

    Notes:

    I'm under Illustrator CS6

    And Photoshop CS6

    Helmer,

    I wonder if this may be useful, or is simply ridiculous. I apologize if this last.

    If you can use a Raster object to copy into Photoshop, you try to use the object > rasterize and set Anti-Aliasing for Art Optimized, can see.

  • Make sure you pop up appears as the subject alone (i.e. without the presentation of the screen)

    Hi all

    I would use pop ups in my current project, but I would like for the pop-ups to appear as the subject without the corresponding provision of the screen (bar side, summary, index, glossary, etc.).  I am generating in Multiscreen_HTML5. When I saw my pages in a browser (CTRL + W), the pop - ups look fine but when I Save/generate, the screen layout, as you would expect, applied to the whole of the project (including the pop-ups). I'm putting the pop-ups on automatic size.

    Is there a way to exclude a topic of the presentation of the screen then I could create rubrics for pop-ups.

    Thank you

    d

    Figured it out.

    I needed deselect Convert popups AutoSize and custom size to hyperlinks (Multiscreen_HTML5 settings, profiles, Desktop screen, optimization). The pop - ups appear now as I had envisioned (auto size without the presentation of the screen).
