Title: Aspect ratio and Size of user screen
Post by: legend on February 18, 2012, 04:45:36 AM

I am a first time user with no one I know in this state that is a user.  I have installed the software on a ruggedized tablet PC (so that I can mount it on the gantry) and using a smoothstepper through the USB port.
First problem before I can use it is Aspect ratio and size of the Mach3 CNC user screen.  Can someone help me with a way I can change the size and aspect ratio please

The majority of the screens are designed at 1024 x 768 so if your monitor is not capable of that you have two options.
1. Go to Config menu then General Config and choose Auto Enlarge and then restart Mach or reload the screenset. It may look stretched or squashed depending on your resolution.
2. If that is no use then you will have to make your own screen up.
