Hi everyone, i am sorry if this has been posted before but i couldn't find anything about it. i am not sure if i did some weird keystroke that caused this problem or accidentally turned on or off something. Its hard to explain what i see when i am logged in now but ill try, everything seems a bit off kilter, not quite focused just down right wrong almost like my window settings for the monitor was changed but they weren't. Anyone know what i mean and have advice on how to fix it??

Perhaps a screen shot would help.
Another attempt at describing the problem in more detail couldn't hurt. "Off kilter" doesn't convey much. "Not quite focused" sounds like it might have to do with anti-aliasing. Perhaps you toggled the Kilter setting. (that's a joke) _____________________

(that's a joke) lol off kilter...well kind of stretched out of shape and unfocused slightly things that are supposed to be round are more oblong and so on. Still new so trying to describe as best i can..sorry everyone. |

Try CTRL-9 to reset the view. CTRL-8 zooms out, CTRL-0 zooms in. It sounds like that's what your problem is.

If the shapes are distorted try pressing Control 9.
Control 0 magnifies, Control 8 fish-eyes, Control 9 sets back to normal. Possibly you have the aspect ratio set wrong. Are you running SL in Full Screen or Windowed mode? If Windowed, is it a maximized window that fills the screen or a window that fills only part of the screen. _____________________

Its hard to explain what i see Now why does that sound like oh so many calls to help desks around the world?  everything seems a bit off kilter Since we do not really know what the error is by the choice of words I would suggest standing upright. Or buying a new monitor. _____________________

Try CTRL-9 to reset the view. CTRL-8 zooms out, CTRL-0 zooms in. It sounds like that's what your problem is. And control-alt to keep it that way. Oh, not to forget to use the delete key at the same time to confirm you want to do that. _____________________
