[AD] Resolution Picker

[ Thread Index | Date Index | More lists.liballeg.org/allegro-developers Archives ]


I've noticed that the Allegro graphics resolution picker doesn't have the resolution 1280x960 (my native). And I was wondering why. 640x480, 800x600, and 1024x768 all have a square pixel aspect ratio (where width / height = 1.33333). Except ofcourse, on oddly shaped monitors like LCDs. 1280x960 has the same ratio as the previously mentioned ones. 1280x1024 is off (1.25). And yet we have 1280x1024, and yet no 1280x960.

It really stinks when you can't run test.exe in your native resolution. Especially considering I'm trying to benchmark it.
