Dash2 Pro configuration screen too big?

I have a little Toshiba NB300 that I use in my race car. It has a 10.1" screen and max resolution of 1024x600. I can't display all of the Dash2 Pro configuration display on this little laptop. The bottom gets cut off and I can't send a configuration to the dash (on this little laptop). The software can't be minimised or the size changed and have a scroll bar appear to move the display.
No worries on the home PC setting it up, but I'd rather not have to buy another laptop just to send a file to the dash.

Is there an easy fix to this that I've missed?

Hello,

I have passed this onto the correct engineer to address it but it is unlikely to change for a few months.

If you're running windows 7 you can use Cntrl + Alt + LEFT as a solution. ;-) (Cntrl + alt + up to go back) but I recommend you find another laptop to use.

Kind regards,
Kieran

We are not going to modify the software to fit on a 600 pixel high screen. The smallest commonly used screens are either 720 or 768 pixels high, so we will try to make them fit within these sizes.

Most netbooks with 1024x600 displays have an option for a "virtual" 1024x768 screen (obviously by throwing away some of the pixels). Check around in your display settings and see if yours does.

Had the same problem...
...not a fix but you can move your taskbar to the left or right side...
