Forms Filling Full Screen
Julian Dyer 
     
4 years ago
Hi

I notice in your lessons that you shrink the form to the size of the information required on the forms/screens.

I want to fill the screen so I do not want to see the previous screen below or to the side of it.  Is there a recommended size screen for say a laptop user or pc desktop user using a 22" screen.  How to I make the forms fit to screen.  I don't mind seeing chunks of blank screen as I will probably think of something later to fill the gaps.

Cascading when designing the layouts etc is fine, but when live I want full screensize if that makes sense.

Thanks

You can always switch from overlapping windows backed to the tabbed document view.
