View Ref-FileFAQ - Why is the 'Change resolution' option greyed out? Thing
Q: Why is the 'Change resolution' option always greyed out under
Single-TOS? The built in Falcon desktop can change resolutions...
A: Under the MagiC operating system functions to perform a 'clean'
resolution change are provided, which don't exist in Single-TOS!
There simply isn't a legal way to change resolution under Single-TOS.
Even if I delved deep into the system and used some undocumented
'illegal' calls the chances of this working with graphics cards,
OverScan etc. are small.
Tip: There are utilities such as SelectDevice which can perform a
resolution change under Single-TOS. These can then also be
entered as RSMASTER. With the help of RSMASTER it also works
with N.AES, by the way!
