V1.2 Screen view

Post by Gowa » Thu Dec 26, 2013 2:12 am

When I view WinPCD it doesn't seem to resize to my monitor screen size.

I missed this post earlier, sorry for that.

There is no resizing of any of the windows that have controls on them. That is, any screen with any data entry. This is because I could not find a way to allow screen re-sizing that maintained the relationship between controls. The layouts changed in a way to make that function unusable. It may just be that I didn't find the way to do that properly.

One thought I had recently was that if I moved all of the graphs from the main window that resizing would work. The problem was primarily related to the graphs. This would also allow for resizing of the graphs the currently remain on the main window.

The schematic overlay window doesn't resize because of the way it was created. I couldn't not find a way to associate a schematic drawing for each element and attach it to the input scrollers. Resizing changed the relative locations there, too. There may be a way to do it, but I can't find it. Or there may be some after-market packages that can be purchased, but there again, I'm not aware of them. The cost would probably be prohibitive for me, anyway.

I should add one thing more. You can resize the window, making it smaller, but the internal components remain the same size. You'll have sliders to move the view into the resized window, just like with a browser window.
