This is a quick survey to see what ArchiCAD users around the world set their screen resolutions to when using ArchiCAD. Please take a moment to respond.


To find the screen resolution of your PC: Right click on your desktop and select Properties. Then go to the Settings tab and read the number under Screen resolution.

To find the screen resolution of your Mac: Go to Apple Menu>System Preferences...>Displays and read the highlighted screen resolution.


If you use a resolution that is not listed, please feel free to specify it in a post. If you use multiple monitors, please feel free to add those too.

Thanks for your time!

Two screens 1600x1024 & 1024x768 Now, my wish would really be (2) @ 1600 x 1200 any bigger and I couldn't get my head around quick enough.

Dell 24" in the office at 1920 x 1200 and when on laptop 17" at 1600 x 1200. I wouldn't go back to regular work on less than 24" as the extra space is perfect for all the menus. I think at the distance I work from the screen (optimized to the focal length of my computer glasses) a 30" would give too much side to side wiplash.
