Just installed X3 on my laptop (screen resolution 1920x1080) but its displaying at an awful lower resolution.  X2 still looks great as seen in the pics.  Any ideas?
 
 
Hmm...guess I cant post images for three days...thats annoying.  Ill come back to this in three days. :)

You cannot post images directly into your post.
 
You need to host it somewhere like Photobucket/Dropbox etc, then get the link code which you paste into your post using the icon that looks like a mountain.
 
But you're not allowed to post links until you hit 25 posts, so go introduce youtself in the Coffee House below
 
Most of them are pretty normal.
 
Well, a few on them are.
 
 
Maybe just the one none

Yes, pictures of this would be very helpful.  Also, Tech Support may be able to help you troubleshoot this as it looks like it could be some sort of configuration on your computer.  I'm not sure what though until I see I picture.

FWIW,
 
I've been using Sonar with a screen resolution of 1900x1080 since X1... definitely not a Sonar issue.

If you right click the Sonar executable and go to "compatibility", does it say anything about screen resolution or color bit depth?

Looked over compatibility mode, no issues there.  I sent a message in to tech support so hopefully Ill hear something.  X2 looks great...x3 looks like it dropped to 1200x800 res or something.  Tried posting the image as a link but it still didn't work.  Sigh.
 
Ironiclly, I cant even PM someone the link since I need to be a member for 3 days (or 25 posts).  I guess its combating spam, but these forum rules are a bit restrictive...
 
actually, lets try this...the link is flicker dot com/photos/106922718@N03/

Just figured out my issue. Right click on the desktop and go to "screen resolution"  then click on "Make text and other items larger or smaller"  drag the slider all the way to the left (smaller), and you should be back to full screen rez in Sonar.
