Hi all,

Just wondering for studio 1558 users, when browsing online do you guys ever find that the default resolution makes text, icons and other stuff a little small ?

I don't find it troublesome but I usually need to zoom in for new sites (Firefox then remembers the zoom setting for the next visit).
How do you guys handle this ?

Related information:
Dell Studio 1558
Resolution : 1920 x 1080 (default setting)
Browser : Firefox 5.0

I find the same situation with Chrome, but much less with IE9. Only thing is I like using Firefox smile.gif

I've tried changing the screen resolution but haven't found one that works well sad.gif
Any suggestions ?

Does this suddenly happen to you? OR it happen since you got this notebook? Did you try to set (Firefox) View \ Zoom \ Reset? With resolution 1920x1080 on a 15" screen, the text & icon will look small. Try 1366x768.

Well it's how it has always been on my 1558 laptop since I bought it last September. I didn't mind it at first, but then I realised that the text and icons were a little small when browsing. And I don't have the option for 1366x768. The closest is 1280 x 768 but the display seems a little blurry when I change the settings. Using the View \ Zoom \ Reset function on Firefox just brings things back to the default zoom, which makes everything pretty small.

Haha well I'm not complaining really, the display is excellent except for this particular thing.
Anyways what you suggested worked out great ! I'm still using the 1920 x 1080 resolution but with the increased text size setting on the control panel.
Thanks for your help ! thumbup.gif
