Title: 1280x1024 screen for Marc3 ?
Post by: borge on January 01, 2006, 10:03:13 PM

HI
And thanks for a great forum. just build my first mill, (the second is on it's way)  ;D

I was wondering if it was possible to get marc3 to fit a screen size 1280 x 1024 because
that's the size i normally use ?

Some time ago i saw a screen layout with some nice looking "digital" numbers on it
Anybody have a suggestion where i can download a screen like that, or some thing like that ?

Best regards

For your 1280 x 1024 screen, the easiest route is to check Auto Screen Enlarge in Mach3 Config>State dialog and use the standard screen sets. You can of course also design your own screens to cram more on - assuming you are also using a large monitor.

With the current Screen Designer system you can customize many things (including colours of DROs) but not the font. What you saw was a mockup.

ps Just in passing - Is it worth compromising legibility of DROs by a font with less typographical clues in the character shapes?
