Vectorworks recommends that your screen resolution be 1024 x 768. With this resolution on my machine and monitor the font/icon size is huge and everything has a slight blur to it. Also, squares and circles do not appear as their true shape due to the fact that I have a wide screen monitor. BUT if you set your resolution higher VW's is crashing my entire system. I am able to set the resolution up to 1680 x 1050 (this is 8 steps higher than the 1024 x 768). This resolution change was done earlier this week. I found that my entire operating system was crashing when I would zoom into a polyline, on the line or corner. After much digging and trying to figure out why this would possibly be happening our tech guy finally realized that it was the screen resolution that was crashing the computer. My wish would be that Vectorworks would run on a screen resolution that lets objects appear their actual shape and you not have to have a huge font/icons. If there is a way around this please, please let me know.
