Just noticed that all the grids on the M3 display in the upper quadrant, ie not covering the screen.


Has anyone else noticed this?

The grid files were created for the smaller displays available when the code was originally implemented.  You basically need to rescale them - easy to do but tedious as they are just plain text files on the SD card.  IIRC there have been several up scaled files posted somewhere a while ago.

I never used grids on my M3…
And the grid is different on the EVF. So I have to use two different grids for EVF and display?
M100 100a, M3 121a, G9x II (1.00c), 2*G1x (101a,100e), S110 (103a), SX50 (100c), SX230 (101a), S45,

@c_joerg

I guess that’s right?

I’m looking to create a screen to use as an infield way of getting magnification, so I will likely just use the main screen.

Ok have looked at text files and can see what I need to do, but I can’t seem to find the monitor height and width in pixels.

Does anyone know where such info may be found. On line all you seem to get is the sq area number.
