Re: 1024x768 Nagy Vilmos12-Dec-11 4:58 Nagy Vilmos 12-Dec-11 4:58  Tis what I said. Our app will happily run on a smaller screen, the real issue is the amount of screens that the users wish to have open and visible at the same time. Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done. Drink. Get drunk. Fall over - P O'H OK, I will win to day or my name isn't Ethel Crudacre! - DD Ethel Crudacre I cannot live by bread alone. Bacon and ketchup are needed as well. - Trollslayer Have a bit more patience with newbies. Of course some of them act dumb - they're often *students*, for heaven's sake - Terry Pratchett Any size Nagy Vilmos12-Dec-11 2:43 Nagy Vilmos 12-Dec-11 2:43  Probably a more accurate question would be how much real estate the users need. In theory, our software has no limitations on the screen size. In practice the users want as much as possible. No, double that. Most real users have 6 or 8 large screens in their monitor bank. The usual set up is 1 monitor for Bloomberg, one for e-mail and browser, and the others are filled with our app. The individual forms are not that large, save for some of the order blotters, but the users will have a lot open. A trader may well be following a dozen stocks with an L2 and then you can add in prop-trading and order handling. [edit] I didn't mention BACON this week, sorry. Panic, Chaos, Destruction.

It’s not because things are difficult that we do not dare, it’s because we do not dare that things are difficult. ~Seneca Re: Hahahahahaha. That is such a Western Perspective.

Screen-resolutions.com[^] I guess a "Western" perspective would be starting the stats at 800 and moving up - but even then that cuts out any web developer who's heard of a mobile device, and all mobile device devs themselves. cheers, Chris Maunder The Code Project | Co-founder Microsoft C++ MVP Insist on vertical monitor orientation!
