BC Runs Centered on Laptop
« on: April 21, 2010, 07:16:57 PM »
I recently bought a new laptop. When I run BC, the application stays centered on the screen, kind of like if you choose your desktop wallpaper to stay centered. On my desktop, BC runs the entire length of the screen. I have included a picture so you can see for yourself. Changing the resolution won't fix the problem so there must be a difference in hardware between the desktop and laptop. Can I stretch it to fit the whole screen on the laptop?

You can enable the scaling (monitor or gpu scaling). It will stretch the picture all over the screen. The other is editing options.cfg.

Aye, it worked after I changed the settings under Nvidia's flat panel scaling. TY  :)

Bear in mind that sometimes monitor scaling is superior and vice-versa. If you're able to select monitor scaling, try both and see if you notice any difference or better quality.
