Full screen board during games ?

Sort:

I did setup the board to 'maximum' but it is still relatively small. Is it possible to have a full screen board during games ? If yes, how ?

Thx

For pc's and laptops, I don't think you can. There are some settings restricted to premium members. I assume you have tried them all.

If you play on a phone, the board fills the full screen. Maybe you can find a way to run the phone app on your pc.

It's for my PC (a laptop equiped with an external monitor of decent size - extended desktop Windows mode)

Yes, there are several different sizes, from small to huge but it doesn't appear to be working good as the size barely change when trying different settings... :-(((

I was wondering if it could be because I'm using Firefox instead of MS Explorer ? Will give it a try ...

I doubt it is a browser issue.   At any rate, I use Chome and at the break between the board and the seek graph, you can hold down your cursor and drag the board size to its maximum, a little less than half the whole window.

You can drag the break between the board and the seek graph until the seek graph almost goes away but the board window doesn't go above 40% of the whole window.

Ah ! I didn't notice I can drag the seek graph to the right. So now the board is much better (although not full screen)  !

Thank you.

I just noticed that by using the 'basic version' of the client [there a link to access to it], it is then possible to zoom the board to a huge size. This doesn't work with the standard client. So it's very good news for my poor eyes ! On the other hand, this old verion of the client doesn't allow to drag the chart box but it's not an issue because it will reducce alone when zooming the board. Now my board occupies the full screen.

I'm just wondering what other differences there are between these 2 versions and if there might be any sort of disadvantage using it ?
