Wide screen settings?

**JanS** · 06-15-2008, 05:45 PM

Forgive me if this has already been covered, but I haven't been around for a couple of weeks and have since bought a wide screen monitor. Now I'm just getting a scaled down version of this board in the center part of the screen. I already have the resolutions and such set correctly from my end and all other boards show just fine on the whole screen.
Here's a screen shot of what I'm seeing here.

Is there a setting I need to change here, or are things just out of kilter in general lately?

TIA.

I have a wide screen monitor too and it's the same here. I don't think there's a different setting for widescreen available.

I always keep my Favorites menu open when I'm online, so that fills up a lot of the empty space.

Here's a screenshot of mine:

Thanks Burns.

I just did another screenshot of a different VB board (showing that it does cover the whole screen), so maybe it's just something that needs to be tweaked here?

I'm glad to know it's not just me anyway.

Changing a forum setting would have to be something done by an admin, so you could PM Kratty if you wanted to. I personally don't mind it, probably because I'm used to it.

Thanks Burns.

Nah, it's not a big deal to me either, so there's no point in anyone going to extra work to change it.
Once I start reading Dobe banter, I forget about everything else around me anyway. LOL!

Yes that is a theme setting. Our current theme uses a "fixed" width. The other forum you pointed out must use a theme that expands to the screen size.

I like that better personally and we did look into that but it would require a complete theme upgrade. I do plan on doing that in the near future.

I have also been away and just recently installed a 23" Apple cinema display monitor.

Forum fills the entire screen, no problem here.
