Yes, I've read that many times and I would agree with it too since anything lower than that resolution is rather old gear. I was experimenting (but what about 1440x900 screens though? This seems to be a common size for smaller monitors and some notebooks. The vertical resolution is the problem here). I personally think that an interface which works well with lower resolutions while still maintaining good functionality and usable space is a good interface, by the way. It's useful for everybody to maximize screen space (*)! (*) Possibly by avoiding wasting vertical space. Vertical resolution, except for high end or otherwise specialized monitors, seems to have stabilized to around 1050 pixels. Nowadays getting a bigger monitor with a higher resolution doesn't necessarily mean that there will be much more useful (and precious) vertical space. Common resolutions for most consumer-grade LCD monitors are typically: 1280x1024 (5:4) 1440x1050 (4:3) 1680x1050 (16:10) 1980x1080 (16:9) The current trend is that the following resolutions and higher ones will tend to be available only on high-end, professional grade monitors: 1600x1200 (4:3) 1980x1200 (16:10) -- SHIRAKAWA Akira _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
