Vogone opens too big

[Vi Harris]

Nope, I'm running XP Professional. And I'm just going to live with the nusiance. I can't abide the tiny icons when I change the resolution. But thanks for all your suggestions.

I hear you.

I don't like the small shortcuts either, so I just change it when I have a need for Vogone, then I put it back. I find that less a nuisance than staring at the mini shortcuts all the time.

Thanks for that, but I'll just keep opening it twice. I use it a lot. I create karaoke from audio tracks. As far as new software, I have many new software programs and Vogone is the only one with this problem. Thanks again for all your suggestions. I always appreciate them.

Hi, Vi.

I think I see what you are describing. When you open Vogone on an 800x600 screen the first time, it lines up with the bottom of the screen. Then when you close and open it again, it lines up with the top of the screen. It appears to alternate between them.

Since Vogone is not a sizeable screen, I have another suggestion for you. What physical size is your screen? 15"? 17"? Would you consider moving up one size (add 2" to the diagonal), and then viewing your desktop in at least 1024x768 mode? This may be the solution you require. Displays are getting less and less expensive, and there is so much more to show on a screen than an 800-pixel wide screen can display. The great majority of web pages out there require that you view their pages in at least 1024x768, for example.

Just my 2¢...

Thanks, dclark. That explanation makes sense. I am using a 17" screen, but I will consider moving up to a larger one. I know the flat screens are much bigger and that is what most everyone has now. However, I must say that I have not noticed any problem with web pages, but I'm going to look closer now. Thank you again.

In XP pro after you change your resolution, in the desktop properties click on the appearance tab then effects. Put a check mark beside use large icons and click ok. See if they are better for you.
