Attached Link: Poser 7 UI with expanded library - 2560x1600 monitor

> Quote - 1) If you only care to see 5 to 7 items at a time (as was shown in somebody's screen shot of previous Poser) then by all means shrink the library down vertically so it only shows 5 at a time and stack it vertically with the parameters. Now you have MORE space than ever before, while being able to see the same amount of content. > > 2) It is 2009, almost 2010. I respect that some people cannot upgrade their hardware due to financial concerns. But 1024x768 is not the norm anymore. I think it's nice that the UI takes advantage of the screens I actually use. Your mileage may vary. > > 3) The layout is static only if you run it that way. That's your mistake if you do that. Learn to use the UI layout dots.

Good advice! - I like to have a big library open when I'm using it, then I collapse it to make way for other panels.

      I'll do set up using one UI dot which gives me a 1280x800 preview window and generous room for panels.  If rendering an animation, I'll stay in this UI dot mode.
      If making a wallpaper, I'll set up using this same UI dot, then switch to another UI dot which has a 2560x1600 pixel preview window for rendering.  The pair of UI dots are consistent in  preview window aspect ratio so that camera views will be consistent.
     I have similar setup/render pairs of UI dots for NTSC aspect ratio and for square aspect ratio (for making avatars and library thumbnails).
In any case, I love a big monitor with lots of room to work.
