Display Settings new website
 

Hi,
I'm only about three day old with x-cart and still getting my footing.

can any one tell me how I my change my website default resolution to
1024x768
Thanks
Tom

By default, it stretches to fit to 100% of the screen width. Do you mean you want to set it as a fixed size of 1024x768? I don't personally recommend it, as there are still plenty of people who use 800x600, and they would have to scroll to view your right hand menus. Most people who want a 'fixed' table with use 760 pixels wide (to account for scrollbars and side menus). That way, even the 800x600 crowd will be able to see the whole screen.

If you want to change the size, edit rectangle_top.tpl and change the table width from 100% to whatever you want. Note that this will also change your administration area as well.

I just notic that
 

Thank you
I was expecting a little more of a fight from X-cart like the other shopping carts I used in the past.
Outstanding and Fast chat support!

Has anyone managed to find a way to set the width to say 760 for the customer side but keep the admin area at 100%.

I am finding the admin site really squashed up and some of the drop downs difficult to read when it isn't 100%.

Maybe there is a global variable that can be used in an 'if' statement??

Never mind... just did another couple of searches using different search terms and found the answer.

Really must remember to search thoroughly before asking questions :wink:
