Q: On the SOAPware Cloud Solution, how do I control the size of my screen?
A: A user is able to control the size of their screen on the SOAPware Cloud Solution by accessing the display tab, where resolution settings can be chosen.
Display Tab
- Click on the Display tab.
- Set the absolute size or choose Full Screen, and the Colors depth.
Some Considerations
- The fewer the colors, the faster your connection will respond. The greater the number of colors, the more attractive your screen will appear.
- Below are some guidelines for using SOAPware at reasonable combinations. We will start with 19" monitors, running a minimum of 1024x768, as this would be a minimum size for the SOAPware application. These figures are approximations, but give you a very good idea of where to start.
Ensure that your video card can support these resolutions before purchasing:
| Monitor Size/Resolution | 1024x768 | 1280x1024 | 1600x1200 | 1680x1050 | 1980x1200 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 19" | OK | Good | Small but usable | - | - |
| 21" | OK | OK | Good | Small but usable | - |
| 22" | OK | OK | Good | Good but small | Small but usable |
| 23"-24" | Very Large | OK | Good | Good but small | Small but usable |
| 30" | See note below |
30": At this point, you will need to make sure that your video card can support these resolutions, but Dell has a 30" monitor that will support 2560 x 1600 (digital only).
