a little bit of reserch and then in a rush, off i went to buy a widescreen 19" acer monitor...well i thought a larger area to work with photoshop would be handy...plugged in and calibrated the first problem was my grahics card only supported 1024 x 768 res not the native 1440 x 900 resolution that the monitor called for ... and obviously the images are stretched, did a bit of googling and it seemes im not the only one who wonders about this ..the solutions suggested seem confusing ...buying a new graphic card to support the native res or /and buying a non widescreen monitor ..phoned the shop where i had bought it from and he said he would never have recomended a widescreen if most of my work is photo/graphic work said there would always be some stretching to images!
anyway the monitor is back in the shop and i have my money back and think i need some more info before i purchase again!
if anyone can help that would be appreciated
obviously alot of people work with widescreen monitors ,,is it just i didnt have the native resolution that resulted in stretched photos or are there other issues?
