haiku/docs/userguide/en/preferences/prefs-screen.html
Joachim Seemer e564a3c1f7 * Added more CSS control for menus, buttons, app names, shell commands, paths.
* Always wanting keyboard graphics for shortcuts, Jorge suggested simple borders
  for simplicity. Great idea! Added.
* Added Jorge's rounded boxes for note/warning/stop plus symbols.
* If anyone wants to fine tune esp. colours, go ahead. Jorge and I are both
  challenged in that department. :)
* A few small corrections and reformatting here and there.
* Excluded the topic "Installation" from the contents until it's further along.

<p>Each of your workspaces can have its own resolution and color depth.</p>
<img src="../../images/prefs-images/screen.png" alt="screen.png" width="458" height="255" />
<p>The top drop-down menu specifies if your changes are applied only to the current or to all workspaces. Depending on your graphics card, the other two drop-down menus contain all supported resolution and depth settings.</p>
<p>After clicking on <span class="button">Apply</span>, the graphics mode is changed and an alert appears, asking you to keep or cancel the changes. If you don't answer that alert, the graphics mode reverts after 12 seconds to the previous setting. Maybe you couldn't see the alert because your monitor didn't support the setting.</p>
<p>To the left, you can set the number of workspaces and open the <a href="prefs-backgrounds.html">Backgrounds</a> preferences.</p>
<p><span class="button">Revert</span> brings back the setting that was active when you started the Screen preferences.</p>
