Went to print a few 6x4 (15x10 for the civilised) photos for herself.
Wasn't concentrating, loaded the glossy paper back to front in the inkjet printer.
What a mess! The reverse side of the paper obviously has zero ink absorption, or less.

Had a Samsung Laser printer for Years good colour & fast, then the trouble started lots of blinking lights, find hack on line using a 10K resistor, fixed for a while, repeat as needed. Then lights start again hack again lights blink differently look up error code, replace error code item(expensive) lights blink in a different order can't stop it. Need to print off buy another printer (Epson) put printer in to fix later pile (or mountain)

I once used some Photo paper in my Samsung laserprinter that turned out to be inkjet paper. Thought I could write off the laserprinter as the mess sticked to the drum, but to my surprise after a few prints on normal paper everything was fine again, phew!

Went to download the drivers for the new PA279CRV NO DRIVERS for Windows 7
I explained in chat what I would connect this new monitor to DUH
OK so I am running at 1920 by 1080 it works and color looks good I am in Native Mode
Feel like I am wasting my money ? Here is why
I had a PA248 not sure of the resolution that said Asus has a PA248QV max res 1920 by 1200 for $159.00
Asus PA248QV[^]
It supports Widows 7
Other issue is all my Desktop VS apps the DGV is chopping of content I can fix this
What features on the PA279CRV are not working because I am using the old drivers?
I don't mind the money but $419.00 vs $159.00 with none of the benefits from the new monitor
I really only care about a crisp clear screen
I have a Nvidia Quadro P400 only 2 Gig using HDMI
Send it Back and buy the PA248QV

that's the problem it only supports widows, not Windows!

My Key Board has a software driver that starts to lag if you are not constantly typing
Kensington ONLY sells this model on Amazon through a 3rd party seller
You also need to scroll the mouse to wake it up
I have had 2 Key Board USB and mice from them before worked great long battery life
This new model claims longer batter life NOT SO every 6 mo new AAA Energizer Ultimate Lithium
I will tell my Widow number 7 you were thinking of here

Um, you do realize the native resolution for that is 4K?

NO I have no clue Just too use to Plug & Play
So I have a setting for Adobe RGB mode. Do I select that when editing Lightroom Photos ?
I did read the online manual it just says you have this and that not when to use the setting
I am not sure the 4K feature is needed for me
I must admit the colors are bright and the new 27 in screen
just makes moving the mouse around a little different or more work ha ha get my exercise.
I am setting to 1920 by 1200 and used 125% screen resolution settings. My VB.Net apps now display as written.
Need to learn how to code for other monitor formats.
Did a little more reading the Higher price is really bring me these display features that justify the price
Pixels Per Inch (PPI) : 163 vs 94 and Pixel Pitch : 0.155mm vs 0.270 cost difference $419.00 vs $249.00
Screen Size 27 " vs 24 " Contrast Ratio (Dynamic) : 3000:1 vs 1000:1
I guess you get what you pay for. I should not complain I paid $600.00 11 years ago for the Asus PA249
Thanks for the reply

I'll preface this question with the joke appended at the bottom... Maybe I'm just mentally challenged at the moment, but is it just me that has a heck of a time finding the Microsoft Developer forums? Maybe Microsoft deleted them, I don't know. I thought I saved a bookmark some time back... but that was in chrome...
Years ago we had usenet and people could ask organized questions - like here on CP. Then Microsoft absorbed that into their own forums and morphed that into a discussion format, and it just kept going down hill from there. I just spent an hour poking around the ms website, searching, and I know it has to be out there, but I'm beginning to have my doubts.
I'm looking for the forums that don't filter or think for me. I'm looking for a list of topics on Visual Studio, etc.
-------------------------------------
Joke:
A helicopter was flying around above Seattle when an electrical malfunction disabled all of the aircraft's electronic navigation and communications equipment.
Due to the clouds and haze, the pilot could not determine the helicopter's position and course to fly to the airport.
The pilot saw a tall building, flew toward it, circled, drew a handwritten sign, and held it in the helicopter's window. The pilot's sign said "WHERE AM I?" in large letters.
People in the tall building quickly responded to the aircraft, drew a large sign and held it in a building window.
Their sign read: "YOU ARE IN A HELICOPTER."
The pilot smiled, waved, looked at her map, determined the course to steer to SEATAC airport, and landed safely.
After they were on the ground, one of the passengers asked the pilot how the "YOU ARE IN A HELICOPTER" sign helped determine their position.
The pilot responded "I knew that had to be the Microsoft building because, the response they gave me was technically correct, but completely useless."

I've had similar challenges with searching for stuff that was actually easy to find in the past.
It's a real pain.
I remember reporting bugs in the past for VSTudio and I remember a community...
Is this the one you're looking for, by chance: Developer Community[^]
Actually, I think their docs [^] still show the old one that is a bit different and was easier to use.

first one - no. There is zero tech info in there. All I want to do is ask a "how do I do this?" question. Or read the thousands of other questions others have asked.
Instead we get this mumbo-umbo crap. I can guarantee you that layoffs are coming to Microsoft. About the time the managers think CoPilot is good enough, they'll make the culling, banking on the invested infrastructure of so many customers. I simply have a hard time understanding the stupidity.
I'll keep looking and maybe I'll blunder across it.

Ask what?
Just hypothetically in response to this I wanted to know how to turn off those silly 'regions' in C#. When I want to look at a file then I want to see code. Why else would I be looking at it?
So I googled the following
Visual Studio how to turn off collapse
Looks like what came back answered the question. First one was from "Microsoft Learn". First response seemed to answer exactly what I wanted to know. Far more detail than I even knew existed.
Remove Expanded Region overlay - Microsoft Q&A[^]

I just use CTRL-ML. Toggles expand/collapse state.

I'm lifting a 20 yo VC6++ project to VS2022 because, well, because. Over the past 20 years, I've learned that project migration can fail from time to time - understanble - and mfc will change. The biggest issue is that I have this monster IDE that has grown past all reasonable usefulness - I mean it's cool and all...
I'll give copilot a spin, we what the semi-AI can tell me.

It's not just VS 2022 forums. Microsoft has a history of "updating" their forums and tech areas to make everything hard to find.

so I'm not imagining it. I just wonder why? It has got to be some manager saying, "We need to be doing work..." I'm going to dive in again to see if the new interface will function.
