refit an object to fully display it on the screen

Hi

I’ve just changed my old 19” screen with a 22”.
How can I make use of the whole screen area? When I” refit an object to fully display it on the screen” I still have plenty of room (up to 10% of active area) between my A3 format border line and the edge of the active screen.

Thanks

RE: refit an object to fully display it on the screen

Do you have a widescreen 22"? Widescreens (16:9) don't show the same window area as regular (4:3) formats.

In the TOOLS>OPTIONS, there is a setting called WINDOWS_SCALE, set this to 1. The default is 0.85.

Thanks 3dlogix, I've tried values from 0.6 to 1.0 for wndows_scale setting..& my window area hasn't changed...it may be related to some other setting!

RE: refit an object to fully display it on the screen

Try OPEN_WINDOW_MAXIMIZED, its a hidden config.pro setting. For WF2 +.
