-2560:1024 (spread across dual 1280:1024 monitors) -19" -yup "a computer screen is made to look right at 4:3" Please explain further fishnose... brainfog here perhaps. While traditional broadcast television standards (non HiDef) fixed aspect ratios at 1:1.33, there is no such standard for computer displays. What I mean is if I render an image 4:5 or 2:3 or 10:1, it opens on your 4:3 monitor at the same ratio as I rendered it, it just will not fill up your entire desktop edge to edge. I gather we're talking about two different concepts. Whadeye miss? Were you referring to the difference between square vs. rectangular pixel displays perhaps?
