Display limitations
Keep in mind that the quality of the display will be limited to
the capabilities of the external video device.
If the external video device, such as an SVGA monitor, is
capable of displaying at a maximum resolution of 800 x
600 and your system is set for a higher resolution, only
part of the desktop will appear on the screen. You can
view the “lost” area by scrolling to it.
If you use the display hot key (Fn + F5) to change the
display output with the LCD Display Stretch option
enabled and the Display area (resolution) set to
800 x 600, the image on the internal display panel may
appear stretched.
TECHNICAL NOTE: You can also use the Cross-Functional
button/Cross Menu utility to toggle between display
resolutions. Press and hold the Cross-Functional button for 3
seconds, and then move over to the display icon. Press the
Cross-Functional button to make your selection.
You cannot rotate the display to any of the portrait modes if the
resolution is set to 800 x 600. You can change from primary
landscape to secondary landscape mode or visa versa using
the Cross Menu program.
Using tablet mode
One of your computer’s features is a convertible display that
allows you to use the screen much as you would a writing
tablet.
Your computer came with applications already installed
specifically designed to work with the tablet feature of the
system. For more information on those applications, see the
documentation provided with them.
