Captivate IDE and Monitor Size

Nov 17, 2011 10:35 AM

I've got a 14 and a 22 inch monitor.  When i move the Captivate application to the 22 inch monitor the stage is acutally smaller than on the 14 ? (I have best fit selected on the magnification) And I lose some of the buttons on the toolbar.  I lose publish, preview and slide x / x.

 

Of course, I would like to maximize my real estate by using the larger monitor.  Any ideas?

    Hi Annette,

     

    Check the Display settings, this is not due to Captivate. Do you perhaps duplicate the desktop to both monitors, then you'll have both with the smallest resolution. I do not know which OS you are using, but normally you can extend the display to both monitors, and you can have them both set to their native resolution which will be a lot higher on the 22" monitor. You can also choose which will be your primary and secondary monitor. When you move Captivate to the 22" (personally I would set that one as primary monitor) you should be able to maximise it and it will adapt to the bigger resolution of that monitor and get all its icons back.
