Support (#5) - Window size (#3) - Message List
Dear Seismic-Handler users,
I would like to change the main window size of SHM and also the traces size in this window. Is it possible to configure these sizes? How can I do it?
I would like to adapt the main window to the screen size (now this window is smaller) and to increase the traces size in this window, although It would require a scroll bar.
Thank you in advance, Jaime

Dear Jaime,
for historical technical reasons the size of the canvas is independent from the size of the display window (frame)in SHM. Changing the size of the display window can be done as usual by mouse. The size of the canvas can be changed interactively via the menu entry 'Specials -> Setup'. In this dialog box you will find two rulers which resize the canvas in height and width, respectively.
If you want to change the sizes permanently, i.e. to get appropriate size as default, you need to change your configuration file. The positions and geometry (in pixels) of the individual SHM windows are defined as parameter values. To simplify it a bit there a predefined standard settings for various resolutions as include files available. Please change the existing include statement 'include shm-conf-<resol>-geometry.txt' to match your resolution, at least not to exceed it. <resol> specifies the nam of your resolution, available are 'xga' (1024x768), 'wxga' (1280x800), sxga (1280x1024), 'uxga' (1600x1200) and '3screens' (actually at least 2 sxga screens are needed for this). Of cousre, feel free to add new resolutions in new include files in $SH_INPUTS, then you have to fiddle around with the pixel addressing of your windows.
Best regards Klaus
