What size screen do you use?

**Art Wendorf** · July 18th, 2022, 22:11

I was shopping for a laptop and got one. It's not for gaming or anything. Mostly for productivity and work. (16 inch screen). But I got to thinking: how would it work for Fantasy Grounds? Which then got me thinking:

What size screen is everyone using?

2 screens at 2560x1440

I run FG on my laptop with a 16" screen with resolution set to 1920 x 1080. I have a second 24" monitor at 1920 x 1080 as well. They are in a stacked config so I only use one or the other for FG and use the other for notes, webpages, Discord, etc. When I travel I just have my laptop. It's a bit annoying, but easy enough.

Screen resolutions are actually higher, but ten everything (not just FG) is too small for me.

Thanks for this. I appreciate knowing that it is indeed possible to use FG on a 16 inch Laptop.

Though, it would be worth noting, that I plan on playing on my laptop but GMing on my desktop which has tons of real-estate.

IMO you will be fine as a player. Especially if you are happy running 4k resolution or such on a laptop screen. But it all pretty much depends on how many windows you insist on being pen at a given time.

2 screens 34" at 2560X1440, FGU extended on both screens. I use Turbotop in order to keep whatever I want on top of FGU (ie Syrinscape window and Tabletop Audio window).
