If you care about aspect ratio, your monitor is too small. On a sufficiently large and sufficiently high-resolution monitor, the edges of the display no longer define the viewport; you just draw the windows at whatever aspect ratio you like. We have pixels to burn these days.
- Retr0spectrum 10y agoBy your definition, any monitor that doesn't fill your entire FOV is too small.
- mixmastamyk 10y agoAs I mentioned the monitor is already too tall, and not wide enough. I don't need a bigger monitor I need a squarer one. In fact my old monitor was smaller (22") and I liked it better except for the lower resolution. Why? Because I could tile two windows side by side in portait. Docs and code, no fiddling, very little scrolling, and very productive. I guess I could ignore the top few inches of my monitor but that is somewhat of a pain because of what happens on window maximization.
