i try to play javaBBolw on a Netbook

The problem is, that Netbooks have a fixed Screensize (1024x576) this means 192lines are missing compared to 1024x768. I startet BB with smal field, and fixt the Backgrund issue and startet to play, but now the problem:

i canĀ“t see the Block Dice, Apothecary and Weathersymbol.

Without choosing Dices i cant play Sad

Try using the option that makes with window re-sizable. The un-maximize the window and drag it taller than your screen allows. That should open up the dice window. You will lose more off the bottom of the screen but can't really help that. Also, set that windows start bar to auto hide while playing to get a little more room.

Hope that helps.

So if you drag the window down so half of it is off the bottom and the top of the window is about half way down the screen you are unable to grab the top edge of the screen and drag resize it taller?

Make sure you check "Resizable Window" in the options. Doing that I am able to make the screen much taller than the monitor resolution.

skijunkie thanks for ur advice, but u cant get a Window bigger than your Desktop.

i finaly found a solution for this mess ^^

- open your Display settings
- switch to Monitor
- unmark "Hide unsuported modes" (could be diffrent, only got the german version of Windows XP)

- after that u can choose any Screensize in your Displaysetup like 1024x768

If the Screensize is higher than your physical Screenresolution, than u have to scroll over the Desktop.

With the option "resizable Windows" u can resize ur BBFrame to fit the Screen with Blockdices

I am able to make my window bigger than my desktop using windows XP, so I don't see why the netbook would retrict that.

Glad it worked out for you though.
