Dashboard windows

[psyklik]

I am running OpenCPN on a CF19 Toughbook and as the screen is a little small, wonder if there is a way to adjust the Dashboard windows?
Particulary the compass & speedo combo take up a good bit of corner space.

Rezice as you do with any other window. Grab the corner of the window with the mouse pointer and move to desired sizw.

Peter,
I've done that, yet as the attached screenshot shows, this is as small as they go.
I was hoping to make the compass & speedo smaller!

As to my 'time' issue I found a recording that has the date in the RMC. Why on some recording & not on others, I will endeavor to find out.

I think they could be made smaller but have a minimum size so that they don't get too small to disappear?

Anyone else need them smaller?

I would prefer to rewrite dashboard instruments using opengl with alpha blending however...

It certainly would be helpful for my use. Thanks for the consideration.

particularly on touchscreen it would be great to have a small instrument shown and on one-touch-click to show big dials and reverse on another click to small size. could even be triggered by a e.g 5sec timer.
