Emu48PPC display resolution Message #1 Posted by Christoph Giesselink on 27 Jan 2008, 6:14 p.m.
Hello together,
we all know that standard Windows PDA's have the QVGA resolution of 240x320 pixel. Emulating the HP48 with its 131 pixel width display has the problem that we can show the display only with Zoom 1 in portrait mode, because with Zoom 2 the display is getting too large (2 * 131 = 262 > 240 !!). The old Emu48CE had the possibilty using fraction zoom factors by the use of the command ZoomDiv. I added this command a while ago to Emu48PPC but I never found a KML script using this command. So I made a KML script testing a HP48GX with zoom factor 1.5.
I want to hear your opinion about the zoom factor 1.5. Left KML is using the standard Zoom 1 mode, right KML using a Zoom 1.5 mode.
The display font on the right is quite ugly because of the limited display resolution of the PDA. Which KML script do you prefer for working with?
On your reaction I will decide to add the script and maybe further ones to my next Emu48PPC distribution or not. At the moment I personally tend to finish the experiment and don't add them, IMHO the display of the right one is too ugly.
Cheers
Christoph
