View Full Version : Low-res desktopping (320/400)

The Resolutions panel offers 320x240 and 400x300 as a valid desktop display. What bothers me is why is this there when you can't click the OK button to change back (And have to know the keyboard's TAB key to guestimate where the OK button is, or even the drop-down resolution list)

Did anyone ever seriously use a desktop resolution that low with low-res pixel fonts and everything?:lolflag:
I think a minimum needs to be set for 640x400 in there. Going further down will just get users lost by accident.

You can also hold down your alt key (default) and drag the screen around by clicking anywhere on it.
