Trying to understand resolutions

[RAIST]

Edit:
Just pulled up FFXI Config againand was scrolling through---keep going past the square resolutions...should see 1440 x 900 down towards the end, or you can do custom sizes in the registry as detailed in the wiki guide.

In the past, you could just manually edit the registry keys to actually render the window/background to your display size (1440/900). Don't know just how the new options are going to affect everything just yet, but the 001/002 and 003/004 settings should still be the same. Details here:

And yeah...don't much care for the new macro width. Like the look of them and all, just not how freaking wide they are now. Never needed 8 characters displayed in the past... don't need them now--can easily identify my Penta Thrust macro with just "Penta". Now allmy buttons are half empty and I feel like I'm turning my head or something now to read the fraking things.

Need the option to shorten them that doesn't require setting resolution below 1024. Hopefully, I've just overlooked the option so far.


Edit 2:
If you want to manually set your menu resolution via registry also, it looks like it added it at keys 0037/0038--same rules for the values was with the foreground/background settings.
