Title: Any guesses about running on a netbook?
#18
Leeward Wrote:.......1) Open terminal
2) type the following in the terminal

defaults write com.hahnsoftware.MrTides3 AppleDisplayScaleFactor .89

The tells OS X to scale the mr tides windows to 89% of their normal size..........

.........Of course a better option is to have the software handle this on it's own, but this method works for those who need it now.

Cheers !

Yes, that worked, but I agree that it is a compromise (but I'm not complaining). While it does indeed allow the entire screen to be diplayed within the 600pix (vertical) limitations, it takes the scrollable data table in the bottom right corner of the Day window down to a font siz equivalent of about 3 Sad I can imagine this could be a little tricky to use in any sort of seas. Ideally, I could easily live with a smaller main graphic, but maintain the size of that data box.

Now August, if you decide you want to play with this, I think I know where you could find some testers....... Wink
