Subject: Re: [opensuse] Screen Resolution To: "OS-en" Date: Thursday, February 25, 2010, 10:30 AM Hi, here is a link to a snapshot I took of the way fonts are displayed on my screen. I am a little disappointed with it because as I look at the screenshot it looks better than what I see on my desktop. The fonts on my desktop are more chopped up, but I hope it will give you an idea of what I am trying to fix. If it doesn't work to convey that idea, let me know and I will try something else. This link shows the desktop at native resolution (1366X768, VGA)

Here is a screenshot showing the same view at a different resolution (1280x720). Hopefully you can pick out the improvement in font rendering quality.
As someone else pointed out, the snapshots tell us only what image was sent to the monitor, not what you actually saw. To show us the latter, you would have to take an actual snapshot of your screen, with a digital camera, then upload the images. Does your monitor have a focus setting? Have you tried changing it? This may seem like an obvious suggestion, but the obvious is all too easy to overlook -- I know from my own experience in recent weeks! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
