There was one user in thread Joel...

1024 x 768


BTW, as uasual, we should no forget that forum participants are just small minority of all users (few hundred at best)!

And, unfortunately, 90+ % of all laptops / notebooks sold these days are just 1366x768 (i.e. 16:9) - the 1024x768 is 4:3 equivalent for older similar systems...

IMHO we simply can't dismiss all those users!

Status: offline 		1440 x 2560 (Dell 27" monitor in portrait mode).

What I'd like to see for us large monitor users is:

* Ability to "detach" some of the dialogs from the game and have them as separate windows. e.g. the commanders report -- why do I need to exit the commanders report in order to move troops around?

* Larger maximum post size to the forum. If I take a screenshot at 1440x2560 I can't upload it, it goes a bit over the maximum file upload size. Which is a pity because I'd do AARs if I could.

Status: offline 		That's it? 1 out of 68 play in 1024x768? If you play in 1024x768 you should vote (I guess this is called biasing the poll).

Status: offline 		I mostly use something else (larger) but occasionally I use my 1024 * 768 10.1 in laptop to play when I am traveling, so I find the ability to play on 1024 * 768 very useful. The present format where it is possible to play on 1024 * 768 but where the main map can be expanded to much larger is very nice.
