What is screen resolution and how do I change it?
Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They also appear smaller, so more items fit on the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items fit on the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. ACT24 has a lot of detail and is best viewed at the higher resolution 1024 x 768.
You might want to note your current settings should you wish to revert back.
There are a few different ways to change the screen resolutions. Below is just one way for each popular operation system.
