Is there anyway to increase the resolution of the running program to a setting higher than 1024 x 768?
Thanks in advance, Leo

Buy either Commercial or pro, anf if you've already got one of these, buy a new monitor if you want to run on higher resolution
A6 Commercial
A7 Commercial

Liger has the commercial edition, according to his/her profile. The limit, in this case, is your monitor. 13-inch monitors usually support this as a maximum resolution. With a 20-inch monitor, you can run and test at 1920x1440. Only CRT monitors go that high (the closest LCD's get is either 1600x1200 or 1920x1080). An LCD monitor supporting 1600x1200 costs about USD$450, but a CRT supporting 1920x1440 costs only USD$220 (but with a $40 shipping fee, still making it about half the price).

Thanks, guys. But there must be a command line I can use to specify a resolution higher than 1024x768 be- fore entering the test... or even better, DURING the test?

I'm not so sure what you mean, but maybe you should look up video_switch() in the manual, that's how you can change the resolution, also possible to do during the "test", Code:
video_switch(9,32,1); //screen resolution of 1280x1024
Increase that number 9, to get even higher resolutions ... Cheers

Wow, PheMoX, thanks..!
Hah, so simple, yet so effective. The higher resolution doesn't lag at all, and eliminates nearly all vertex and aliasing problems!
