Hey,

I (am using WINXP) would like to get DHPOS to work maximised and not full screen. I would like to be able to see the start menu and taskbar. I have tried changing the screen size in properties and it shows the example of what it would look like, but then when i close the dialog box it doesnt change. i have managed to get the DHPOS window about 50% bigger but cant get it any bigger...........

thanks in advance

lemon535,

For the slowing thing read this http://keyhut.com/faq.htm#slow

On the screen thing in the upper left corner of the window should be the text size. Something like [ 10 x 18 ]. You can open up the menu and pick a different font size which will resize the window that POS is running in. The font size is in pixels which means that the screen resolution you are using for your screen. The higher you have set your screen resolution the smaller will be your POS window for a particular font size.

I usually run POS full screen and when I need to use a Windows feature I hold down [ALT] and press [ENTER]. This will put POS into a window.
