Screen Resolution and drop-down menus

[Norm Henderson]

I have a new notebook with a display resolution of
1920X1200. I have adjusted the font and DPI so the items
are quite readable.

However, I am using FP 2000 and the drop down menus cut
off some of the wording - particularly the path. For
instance, when I click File>>recent webs>> the drop-
screen on the right cuts off a lot of the path to my
recent webs. Necessary for me to guess which one I want
to bring up.

Using my PC, at 800X600, of course, didn't have this
problem.

How can one widen the drop down box so the full path will
show?

In addition, I have a web page that I created on the PC
at 800X600 with a number of Hover buttons. Using FP2000
on my higher resolution notebook, some of the buttons
don't fully show up.

I really don't want to keep changing the resolution
whenever I use FP. Is there a way around this minor
problem.

Many thanks for your assistance.
Norm.

Unfortunately that's a Windows Dialog problems when you start adjusting DPI at very high resolutions

IMHO run the lap top at a more reasonable 1024 to 1280 size at normal DPI or you will have the same problems w/ many programs

Thanks, Stefan. I wondered about that and then living
with a slightly fuzzy print image.
Hopefully, in subsequent upgrades of FP and other Office
programs, Microsoft will adapt to the flexibility of
higher resolutions.
