I have a 15" MacBook Pro with a native (and maximum) desktop resolution of 1440 x 900.
Is there any utilities out there that would let me increase this?
Because this is an LCD display, I imagine if this were possible it would start crunching the pixels making the display less than ideal. I'm ok with this because I would be using OS X's zooming features to zoom into the areas where I want to work and effectively having a larger "virtual" dekstop resolution.
Another way of asking this question: Is there any any tool that would let me zoom out past the desktop resolution (using gestures similar to OS X's built in zoom in/out feature).
FYI, this is for vnc'ing into a much larger resolution computer. I have looked into various vnc viewers but no zooming feature I've found beats the built in OS X zoom.
2As far as I know this is not possible... I'd love to be wrong though! – Josh – 2010-09-16T16:18:11.567
Might there be a better VNC client that would let you pan around? I know that in LogMeIn you can set it to either scale (zoom out) or you can zoom in all the way and pan around. – nhinkle – 2010-09-16T19:47:40.430
Interesting question! I'm sure the easiest way to accomplish this would be with a different VNC client, but I don't know if any exist that have that feature. – NReilingh – 2010-09-17T23:59:22.327
