I need to have a desktop resolution on one desktop of 1280x1024 on my laptop with a monitor resolution of 1280x720, so I was very disappointed when Dexpot only allowed me to choose between the "desktop resolutions that the monitor can display", which means 1280x720 was the highest one. When I manually switched to 1280x1024 on one desktop, and then switching back-and-forth between desktops, the resolution is set back to 1280x720 by Dexpot.
Please make it possible to choose or specify other desktop resolutions than the ones that the system specifies that the monitor can show.
Desktop resolutions above monitor resolutions
Re: Desktop resolutions above monitor resolutions
Lots of fancy new features in 1.6, but still I cannot choose any desktop resolution that I want. And this seems like such a small thing to fix. Please make it possible to specify your own desktop resolution, instead of just choosing from a list. Because all possible resolutions is not in that list...
Re: Desktop resolutions above monitor resolutions
How do you manually switch to a screen resolution not supported by the driver/hardware?
Re: Desktop resolutions above monitor resolutions
Patrick,
Some displays do not correctly report all of the available resolutions, especially some older CRTs, but some LCDs, too. Under XP, there's a checkbox in XP's display properties --> Settings tab --> Monitor tab which says "Hide modes that this monitor cannot display" which one must un-check. XP then provides a list of all of the resolutions that the graphics card supports, and any of them can be selected.

Are you sure you can get a 1280x1024 resolution on a 1280x720 LCD screen this way?
