Resolution Issue with new driverstation computer

When we fire up the dashboard and driverstation software on our new computer, the windows will never take up the full screen ( No matter the resolution ).
Is there a way to re-size the driverstation software?

PS: Our new driverstation computer has a max resolution of 1366x768 and a min resolution of 800x600.

PPS: We found a "solution", but it seems to involve taking the source code for the driverstation and re-compiling it with a new fixed resolution. It seems to us that that would make the judges less than happy.

Re: Resolution Issue with new driverstation computer

You can change the size of the Dashboard, but you can't change the size of the Driver Station app.

Although, dropping your screen resolution down might give you all that you want.

Re: Resolution Issue with new driverstation computer

Darn. I was hoping not to hear that.
We have tried all our available resolutions, with the best of them still leaving a gap at the top of the screen. Perhaps we can simply change the size of the dashboard to accommodate.
Thanks anyhow,
Team 2550.
