Porteus

Hi,
the other day I did a fresh install of v5 with xfce desktop on my old MSI netbook (U-100). The PC comes with a very unusual screen resolution of 1024x600. Many other Linux ditrios I tried out had problems with that, but not so Porteus v4.
On v5 however the Settings Center window is just "too big". The "System Settings" page e.g. is cut off at the "Bluetooth Settings" entry. From v4 Settings Center I know that there must be some more topics to choose from but there's no way to scroll that window or page. The same applies for the "Save Settings" page which is cot off at "Edit your changes location in porteus.cfg"

I guess I'll have to manually hunt all those settings down in my porteus.cfg file. Or is there some way to access those single Settings pages separately?

All in all it would be extremely helpful if those Settings pages were scrollable.

This btw also applies to other Settings windows like file or desktop settings.

Meanwhile it would help if someone could give me a hint on what elements are missing for me below the bluetooth settings entry

hi have you see in setting /hardware/display configure gui maybe is only a wrong setting try if work....

Thanks for hinting : the display settings are correct but there I found an option to choose a different scaling. Changing that from "1" to "1.5" allows me to see all windows etc. in full size (I may need stonger glasses then, but hey, it's there )

(still it would be great if those settings windows / panels would have scroll bars...)

Cheers

If a window is "too big":

Press and HOLD ALT and then LEFT-click and HOLD the mouse button in the window.
Start dragging it ...(upwards if you couldn't see the bottom of the window)

(ALT + RIGHT-click does resize)

this is great, many thanks for that!
