Re: [Win4Lin-users] win4lin window is too small

Brilliant!   Thank you, Mark, I'm back in business.   I just can't say how happy I am to be able to run a couple of old DOS friends that were barely hanging on under WindowsME and that I have a very strong suspicion will not be able to run at all when the next version of MSWIndows comes out -- and this without having to give up Outlook Express!   Win4Lin is HOT!   Bill ----- Original Message ----- From: Mark W.

So here we go with plan 2... (or maybe Plan 9, if you catch my drift...)      If you right click on the Windows desktop, you get the Display Properties dialog box, and as I understand your description, you can see settings, so choose that.      On my machine, you come up highlighting Colors. Hit your tab key 1 time, and you should be on Screen area. You're at 640, so hit the right arrow on your keyboard a couple of times. Now you're at 1024, or whatever your card supports.      From here, you can hit the tab key 4 more times to get to apply, and then hit enter to do it.      If my number of keystrokes don't exactly match what you see, because your graphics adapter can change this dialog box (and I'm testing from Windows, not Win4Lin Windows right now) you can usually test this by counting how many tab key hits take you all the way around the loop. The apply key is one before colors, so count it out and you'll get it.   Good luck, Mark   (And there actually is a key combination for moving windows if your mouse dies, but I can't find it.....sorry) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of BillH Sent: Friday, May 18, 2001 5:05 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Win4Lin-users] win4lin window is too small Let me rephrase my last question: The X-window that contains my Win98 desktop is too small relative to the size of my Gnome desktop. If I look at the display settings inside Win98, the slider is positioned all the way to the left of the scale where it says 640X480. If that is the thing I have to change then I am in a Catch22 because to change that setting I have to move the slider and then click on the OK "button". Unfortunately, the window is so small now that I can't see the OK "button". HELP|OnWindow says "Win4Lin prevents you from resizing windows larger than the default size". So how can I make the default size bigger? Thank you.
