Neither effect is great, and often makes the situation worse instead of better.įortunately, there is a different approach. The 1280×1024 image won’t be larger at all instead, it will be centered by the monitor using 1280×1024 physical pixels on the screen and surrounded by a black border of unused pixels.Because there’s no such thing as a part of a pixel, the monitor just does its best, often resulting in images that are indeed larger but also significantly fuzzier. You’ll note that that’s not an even multiple, so the display now has to “stretch” each pixel that Windows gives it across 1.5 pixels horizontally and 1.17 pixels vertically. The 1280×1024 image will be stretched by the monitor to fill the 1920×1200 pixels that make up the display.To make things appear larger, you then change the resolution that Windows uses to 1280×1024. It’s the resolution at which it works best. That’s its native resolution, meaning there are physically 1920 dots or pixels across, and 1200 dots up and down on the screen. With the rise of LCD screens, running at anything other than the screen’s native resolution can have unintended consequences.įor example, let’s say your display is capable of handling a resolution of 1920×1200.
In the past, this was an approach that worked fairly well on CRT-style monitors.

Screen resolution is the wrong thing to change to make text bigger.
