Re: screen 1024x768 desktop 1600x1200
hi Jimmy Richards
the solution of the display is 1024x768, but the desktop is 1600x1200 large.
you know the desktop is bigger than the screen, so you see only a part of it, if
you
get up with your mouse, the screen scrolls up, if you go left, down, right, the
same procedure...
i have your lines you wrote downwards only with 1024x768, which i want to have.
first my screen was 1600x1200 and that was to uncomfortable...
so i wnted to change it down.
first desktop 1600x1200 screen 1600x1200
now desktop 1600x1200 screen 1024x768
i hope soon desktop 1024x768 screen 1024x768
do you know what i mean?
thanks for helping me.
