screen matching

[bartje]

I'm running my FMapp on a G4 17"flatscreen aswell on an Ibook. The application is made to match the 17" screen, so when I'm running on my ibook, I have to scroll to see all the features. Is there a way to shrink everything by starting up FM on my Ibook ?

Hoi Bartje,

The best is to develop two sets of layouts and then use a script that swiches from one to another depending on the resolution it finds when the database is launched.

You can also use a "maximize window" script at the opening of the database. Otherwise using "zoom view" is very ugly.

Doei,

The zoom view was never designed to scale layouts to match window size. Mulitple layouts is the only real way to go. It's also a hell of a lot of work, which is why I tend to standardise on 800x600 resolution.
