New screen

Post by **FatherJack** » April 24th, 2007, 18:44

Almost finished buying all the bits for the new PC, latest addition being a new 19" LCD (to go with the 22" widescreen one).

This means I can now do what I have always wanted to:

What app are you using to centre the windows? Or are they just on fullscreen?

Looks like full screen. I wish the maximise button would work, I also get sick of centering my eve window

The right one's on fullscreen, the left is set to the same res as the desktop and dragged almost off the screen. (There's no gap under the corp hangar button and a sliver of black toolbar at the top)

Trouble with full screen is it minimizes when the other window gets focus, so to actually play both windows you'd need to have both in windowed mode. Running them from separate installation directories they keep their own settings in terms of resolution, graphics settings and (internal at least) window positions.

Get EVEmon, that will centre a screen on windowed mode with no anoying bars on it. I was just wondering if 2 at once was possible (EVEMon only gives the option for one screen).

I've recently become a big fan of eve launcher just for it's nifty cache clearing abilities, but it's got options for centering screens as well (and various other do dads)

ooh, it'd be nice to be able to still see my start menu at all times though.

I've only ever got this to work once. Can't figure out why it won't work now.

I just changed from 15" bog-standard Dell LCD to 22" Synchmaster WS. I can't belieev I waited this long.

The wife complained about the price (about 300 Euros) for exactly as long as it took her to cross the appartment and actually look at the picture. *Click* sold. Now I can't get her off it

Now all I need is a PC up to the task with mahoosive GFX card to boot. Ah well, in the winter maybe
