Resizing Options (Cartography, Chart Scopes)
« on: March 04, 2023, 07:29:32 AM »
Hi,
For the Cartography screen, the bottom part is cut off, due to screen size, (14 inch  1920 x 1080), can there be an option to resize the window?
Likewise for the Various Chart Scopes, the antiscia window, the bottom is also cutoff. I tried using the save picture option, but it's a screenshot, and also cutoff

Hi there - thanks for using the forum. Could you post your screenshots here please. You can use the attachment function. It would be easier to see what's going on then.

See below for screenshots - this is what I'm seeing on a monitor with that resolution.

are you using a laptop with text size set to 125%?
see windows - display settings.

Thanks Jean - that might be the problem.

To get the best from Planetdance a large-ish monitor/screen is best.

It's difficult to make the Carto module scaleable because of the complexity of the code.

Oh yes, default was set to 150. I change to 100, I can see the whole picture now, but since that change is for entire windows, apps and text become smaller. Is there anyway to change the size in planet dance only?
