    Default Pathpilot monitor resolution

    I just installed Pathpilot on my machine. I removed the computer so I could do the install in my office instead of bending down to access the computer and I used a wide screen monitor. Now that I have moved the computer back to the machine with the older low aspect ratio monitor Pathpilot comes up with the left inch or so of the screen missing. I am assuming it detected the monitor size of the other monitor during install and now it is using the same thing.

    How do I set the screen resolution on Pathpilot now? I did search some other threads and tried powering up the monitor separately so it is on before the computer boots up, but no luck.

    What version of PP? I had the problem all the time before 1.9.12. Power off/on would fix it.Edit: You can also go into ADMIN DISPLAY and check the resolution. I think PP only has 3 settings. You just have to match it to your monitor resolution.

    I have version 1.9.11. Foolish me thought the CD I just got two days ago would have been the most up to date release.

    Now to go search and see where to find updates and how to install them.

    Thanks. I found the update and installed it and same issue. I did try the ADMIN DISPLAY and went to the highest resolution and now I get the whole Pathpilot window to fit on the monitor, but it is not full screen. Is that normal?

    Is your monitor set to auto size?
