Pub is made in 1024x768 has a few animations in it. Widescreen is connected to computer (pub is installed on this). Widescreen > 24 inch some kind of tv screen, don`t have any specifications on this (in two weeks I have)...

A have a couple of questions about this subject or if any has some experience with this ...?
First of all is this possible to show a pub on such a screen?
Does page size 1024x768 is ok? or does this depend on the lcd widescreen? I can adjust the pub...
Do I need some particular video cart to show on a lcd widescreen on my machine?
I have some more questions but I think I leave it for now , and just wait after new-year.......
Any info would be appreciated

Cheers

Jim

BTW EVERYONE BEST WISHES AND A HAPPY-HEALTHY-NEW YEAR

Jim,

We have used screens like this at many trade shows and there have never been any problems. One thing you do need to find out is the screen resolution of the screen and then create your pages to this size. Stretching pages on such a large screen will show any jaggies far quicker than on a small monitor.

In my experience most modern cards will be more than capable or running such as screen. Again the main thing to watch for is resolution and make sure your graphics card is capable of running at the screen resolution. Unless it is a very expensive screen most do not run much above 1024, but check as with it being a wide screen it may have a non standard resolution.


Hope this helps

Brenden

This screen is used ,
Samsung - LCD TV 26'' (66 cm) - Format 16/9 - Resolution: 1280 x 768 - Contrast : 600:1 - Lum: 500 cd/ -LW26A33W

The resolution is 1280x768 does this means I create the pub in a size of 1280x768? I can Imagine if you want to use the complete screen size...

So the graphic card in the computer handle 1280x1024 max, this means with the screen I can handle 1280x768, or not?
Is it correct to say with the graphic card I can't make any pub above 1280x1024, therefore my resolution of the screen can't go above these settings (in theory)? Sorry if I doubled any questions, just checking out here for sure....


BR

Jim
