scrollbar in software

Post by hottscennessey »

I use a smaller touch screen laptop when I tune. Not all the windows fit in the screen, and I am not able to add more resolution.

I cannot view some of the windows in their entirety by dragging the "title bar" (at the top), so i would like to suggest a scroll to see the bottom of these windows, which I currently can't access.

Just LMK if you're lost and need a screenshot. Thanks!

resolution= 1024*600

the main window is the knock/warning panel, being able to re-size the fuel/ign tables is perfect.

Yeah ... Nistune is not small screen friendly ..
I have a Net-book, and I like it for 9 hours operation, but the resolution is just tiny.

A way to deal with this is to use a virtual resolution on your Net-book, meaning Windows scrolls the viewable area
once the mouse is moved to the boarders of the screen.

Not ideal, but it helps ..

:)

I was not thinking anybody would care much since the thread is almost 2 years old ...
Especially the thread starter must have gone I thought :)

Just set the resolution in windows to somewhat you like.
So 1280 by 1024 is something I find ok.

This is somewhat a virtual desktop area ...


Then using the mouse you can scroll within this virtual area.

I use a wireless mouse ..
