CATIA V5 Widescreen Display - 1440 x 900 pixels

CATIA V5 Widescreen Display - 1440 x 900 pixels

(OP)
I have a 1440x900 laptop display and am unable to adjust my Catia V5 display settings to suit. For example a circle appears as an ellipse on the screen.

Can anyone tell me a step by step guide of how to adjust the settings to enable me to get the correct settings for my display for Windows XP.

Thanks.

Where do I input the environment variables to suit my widescreen display?

RE: CATIA V5 Widescreen Display - 1440 x 900 pixels

Go in Control Panel - System - System Properties - Advanced - ENvironment Variables - New

Did you try to upgrade the video drivers first?

Fernando

No, I didn't. How do I do this?

RE: CATIA V5 Widescreen Display - 1440 x 900 pixels

Check your laptop video card manufacturer website and see if they have new drivers for what you have in your laptop.

Usually, there is a small program which can be installed without any problem.

If there is no new drivers, proceed as described.

Fernando
