Re: Only Load Driver Station on Secondary Laptop in "Driver" User Account

It's likely that the other laptop has a different screen size/resolution than the tiny Classmate screen. The Driver Station and Dashboard will fill less of the screen and probably won't tile and remove the borders like it does on the Classmate.

You are actually seeing two programs, the Driver Station and the Dashboard. Driver Station loads the Dashboard and they neatly tile together and fill the screen on the Classmates.

You can edit the Dashboard and customize it as you like. If you open it and look at the code it's fairly easy to see how the screen attributes are set when it detects that it is using the "Driver" account.

However, since the Driver Station is supplied from FIRST and can't be altered, you can't do much to it, even change the size on the screen.
