WCS Support Forum

[astrospotter]

Not all netbooks have the ability to support over 600 pixel screens and some I know are limited to just over 570 pixels.

From a screen shot of the program I see that WCS will be too tall and my netbook does not support the 'panning' feature with a virtual 768 pixel tall window.

This netbook is to replace an older and far more power hungry pc because with this netbook I really do get 9 hours of life (without autoguider).
So I have this netbook to do autoguide and fixed height windows programs with over 600 pixels will clip and not be visible.

Perhaps the 2 keys on the very bottom can be off to one side or another?

I realize this is unfortunate and I only request it because I suspect these very low power netbooks are going to be a big deal in the field so because everyone wants longer battery life.

Thanks for your time in considering this issue. Take care, Mark.

astro, I agree with this and have just gone down exactly the same route although I only use mine when travelling But its a great idea for a mod.

Works fine on my notebook. Perhaps I have a larger screen? Not sure what the difference is?

If you can't re-size the screen to allow 1024x600, you will lots of customers. Most observers are using the 10.1 inch netbooks due to battery life and that is the screen limit.

You have lost my sale.
