Hi

Is there any FREE software other the CP SKETCHER to layout my CP?
I found CP SKETCHER hard to see, too small images Don't know maybe something else.....??

Thanks

You can use mameroom's software. It's the software they use for people to set up a panel for them to make, but it works just fine for you to build your own as well.
Tahnok:
Out of curiosity, what resolution are you using?

There are a few others (mameroom being one of the bigger ones), but I think most of them use similar setups.

My resolution is 1080x1024 but i tried to lowered down to 800x600 but it is still hard to precisely place PB on layout. I guess there is no ZOOM feature in CP SKETCHER or I can't find it ???

I usually run huge resolutions because I'm a weirdo, but I'm assuming your question/problem to mean that the cpsketcher work window is too small for you to use it adequately.

Well, changing your desktop resolution should help considerably (Which I've noted you've done)

The other thing you can do to get really accurate placement is to turn on the 'snap to grid' option, and then adjust the grid size. And don't forget that you don't need to make reeeeally tiny squares if you don't need to... For instance, I've set the grid out to 3 inches for some odd placements, and 10 inches for others.

As to an actual 'zoom in' function, I don't believe there is one on CPsketcher, but I hope those ideas help you find a work-around!
