"Artie" just sent me this:
"I wonder if this will give you a clue, Richmond...
A while back I ran into a problem wherein I all of a sudden couldn't
save screenshots to my Butler pasteboards until its developer explained
that Retina screens have three times as many pixels as regular screens,
so screenshots are three times larger, and I needed to triple the
allowable size limit of my pasteboards."
To which I replied:
"No: it doesn't tell me anything, but it probably will tell one or two
of my "Mac Mage" friends, so I shall pass this on"

My application is 728 high. This covers 99% of users. I know that you’re not
releasing it for Windows, but there are Windows users with 11” screens. If the OS
reports screen resolution < 800 I hide the Taskbar as well.

Hi Roger,
I think you have hit upon the real problem,
and the correct solution. If he is looking at
his Mac at a resolution of either 1024 x 640
or 1280 by 800 then Richmond’s app wouldn’t
fit at all properly on the screen.
For my everyday use I usually have my screen
set to 1280 by 800 because I don’t like
the small text. When I work on an app
I always switch to 1920 by 1200.
Good catch!
Rick
That sounds like the answer

Is it possible that "Artie" has his display set to a lower resolution to
compensate for vision impairment?

I pumped out a 32-bit Mac standalone from my Char Ref stack and
released it through MacUpdate as a freebie, and have had a series of
e-mails from
someone called "Artie" who says that the standalone (886 pixels high)
won't fit on his
Mac Laptop that has a screen res of 2880 x 1880.
This seems odd to say the least.
Richmond.
