touch screen resolution which is best ?
« on: May 07, 2009, 06:17:26 pm »
Hi I have an Elo 17 inch touch screen monitor. I have made it into a wall mounted media/jukebox.
I use a touch-it virtual keyboard so I can type things into youtube etc.
I had the resolution on the monitor at 800 x 600 which made everything chunky but easy to use with the touch screen.But the problem is that all websites pages are  oversized and you have to scrol sideways to read it all ? Is there anyway to combine both chunky buttons and webpages that fit onto the screen ?
Also the touch -it virtual keyboard was the right size at 800 x 600 but now at the higher resolution its a bit small !

p.s I added shortcuts to web pages on the desktop and when you click them they open up as a small window and you have to maximize them all manually to view in full screen, how do you get all windows to be full screen ? I tried the closing at full screen and it should remember but it does not !

Most touchscreen juke software supports 1024 x 768 resolution.

For a keyboard on screen that allows customization try Click-N-Type

If you save your web page in full screen but change the size of your browser it will open in the size currently being used by your browser.  Keep your browser in full screen and that is how it should open.
