resolve lite / lion / 15″ macbook pro

[Teo Rižnar]

you can try this, it works for me:

1. Run Temrinal and copy/paste:
defaults write -g AppleDisplayScaleFactor 0.75

2. Run Da Vinci Resolve

3. In Terminal reset the resolution back:
defaults write -g AppleDisplayScaleFactor 1

It scales the window down so you can use 1920×1200 GUI on smaller display

That terminal command does not work in Lion. I have been trying to find a new way to do this in Lion but have not found anything yet.

Thank you for sharing this! Hope to find the solution for Lion. Please post if you do. I will also look for it.

yeah, Lion is different. I know it will barely run on an older 15″, but just to be able to navigate the interface along with the manual. The Apple Color interface scales to whatever monitor/resolution you have – wonder if this would be possible in Resolve?
There are not a lot of 17″ MBP out there compared to the 15″, and it’s difficult to carry an iMac around an airport terminal…

I’m not on Lion yet but I was planning to move over sometime, and I’m really starting to love Resolve lite so I’m annoyed to hear the resolution trick doesn’t work.

Did some searching, and came across this… might be nothing but if it can make normal apps fit fullscreen, maybe it could somehow shrink resolve and do the same?

If someone could check it out and let me know that would be great, though it’s a long shot!

“Maximizer is Lion’s full-screen apps, but for every app. It adds support for Lion’s full-screen to apps like Chrome and Firefox (which haven’t yet been updated to support it) as well as ones like TextMate, which might never gain that support. It should work with any Cocoa app, but not Carbon ones.”

(Is resolve cocoa?)

any luck? I download and installed both but have no idea what I’m doing.

It didnt work on my MBP Lion so far…not even with that link, any other idea?

I need it asap.

thanks a lot!

The latest version of Resolve Lite now fits 15″ screens. It works fine for me on snow leopard and think it’s optimised for lion so there shouldnt be any problems. Well, It will crash for me on my 2010 mbp if i put it to sleep with resolve open, but this is a cuda issue apparently and easy to work around.
