Altering ManaLink's Screen Resolution

Postby porphyre » 10 Jun 2012, 16:39

I searched a little and didn't see this tip repeated anywhere, so here we go.

I have a modern computer with a 16:9 display (1920:1080) and was always frustrated that Magic zoomed the card images so large that I could only fit two rows of cards on screen at the same time:

So I PM'd stassy who put me on the topic of screen resolution.

Did you know your screen resolution doesn't matter?

You can simply drag the borders of the play window to whatever size and shape you want. This screenshot shows my screen stretched vertically across two monitors. My play area is on my lower monitor with my opponent's play area on my second monitor. I can have SIX ROWS of cards displayed without overlapping.

This works in Windows 7. I hope it helps someone else out there who's new to Manalink.

Yes, I just noticed that while toying with screen resolution with a duel started.
The only issue is that the background is totally messed up, but not the cards.
