VIEWING THE SITE
There are two ways of making your screen compatible with the rosenbergtrial.org
site. The first one is quite easy and the second
way sort of easy. If your browser is Internet Explorer, then when you
open to the site you will see a vertical line toward the left of the screen.
This line separates the frame (in the green color) from the text.
Click on this line. When
the double arrow appears, drag the line to
the left. The horizontal scroll bar should disappear. When that happens,
stop dragging. If dragging the line does not eliminate the scroll bar;
or if you do not use Internet Explorer, then you have to increase the Resolution
of
the screen. This is done quite simply.
1. Click on any blank area on your desktop using the right
mouse
button. A menu window appears.
2. On the bottom of this menu is the word properties.
Click on it.
The Display Properties window appears.
3. Click on the settings tab in the upper right. In the
new window
move down on the right to the screen area
box.
4. To increase the resolution drag the slider in that box to
the right.
Drag it until the slider points to 800 x 640. Stop.
5. Click on OK (bottom middle) to confirm the change.
6. A new window appears. Click on OK (in the middle) to
change
the resolution. In the new window, click on
YES
to keep the
settings. |
All done. Pretty easy, wasn't it? If you ever want to return to the
original resolution, then follow the same procedure, but this time move
the slider in the screen area box to the left.
GOOD LUCK / HAPPY VIEWING

Resolution and Pixels
Why is it that when I call up a site to my computer, it does not fit
on the screen? I have to scroll horizontally or vertically or even both.
The answer: the PIXELS are too big. Pixels are those little digital dots
that make up images that you see on the screen. Even your TV uses pixels
to convey the picture. (If look closely at a TV image, say inches away,
you can actually see the pixels.) If the pixels are small then the images
will be small. And vice versa, if the pixels are large, then the images
will be large. An example of how this works is in the letters. If for example,
the letter "T" is 34 pixels high it will be this height:
T
But it the pixels were made 1/3 as big, then the 34 pixel "T" would
be this high:
T
To change the size of the pixels you have to change the number of pixels
in a given area. The more pixels in a given area, the smaller each pixel
will be. The less pixels in a given area, the larger each pixel will
be. The number of pixels in a given area is called RESOLUTION. Again, the
higher the resolution, the more pixels in a given area; the smaller the
pixels and the smaller the images on the screen. This lets you display
more information. No more scrolling.
Note that resolution is given in terms of the number of horizontal pixels
(width) by the number of vertical pixels (height). Height x
Width = Area. This gives you the number of pixels in the total area of
your screen. And more pixels means smaller pixels.
HIGHER RESOLUTION = SMALLER PIXELS = SMALLER IMAGE
= MORE INFO
