Fix for Screen Resolution - Windows 10

I figured I would post a solution for screen resolution for bigger screens since I couldn't find anything in the forums and it took me an embarrassing amount of time to figure it out.

Story Time:
I decided to use my 32 inch LCD as a monitor. It worked great except when I started OOTPB I suddenly only had 4 viewable windows available in the transactions screen. I usually have 9. I messed with all the in game resolution settings, tried windowed/full screen, and nothing worked. I messed with the monitor resolution and still no love. OOTPB would open and still be "too big".

The fix:
Right click the desktop > display settings. There's a slider above Orientation titled "Change the size of text, apps , and other items". Slide that sucker to the left until you get the size you want (125% for me). Boom! 9 windows again!

Is 9 still the maximum?

According to OOTP itself, OOTP MLB play (modern and historical) outnumbers OOTP fictional play three to one.

Five thousand thanks for a non-modder? I never thought I'd see the day. Thank you for your support.

I couldn't get more than 9. 12 would be awesome though.

dude, I was stoked when I saw this. I have been asking this question ad nauseam. thanks!

unfortunately, didn't change anything for me.

I can live with 4 windows in manager's office, but the rosters & transactions screen? not so much. frustrating as hell.

my old league that I keep importing (& playing on a much older system) gives me 10 on manager, 6 on R & T (IIRC).

hard to go back when you're used to that.

I use a 32" monitor too. I have my windows set at 100% on that slider. I have 9 spaces in the roster/transactions overview window but only actually 8 windows which is odd as the space is there for the ninth (bottom right corner is blank if you imagine a tic-tac-toe effect of windows). Manager's office I have 15. What screen resolution are you using? - I'm using 1920*1080

I"m using 2560x1440 for my monitor resolution, with the slider set at 125%. 1680x1050 works too, but doesn't look as good. In the game I'm set at Windowed and Maximized. I also have 15 in manager's office.

What size monitor are you using? I get 9 in R&T with my 22 and 24 inch monitors set at 1680x1050. If you're using a smaller screen or a laptop, you probably won't get 9 windows. If you have the slider option in your display settings, try sliding it to the left with the game open. The changes will take effect dynamically, so you can see what works. Your in game settings will have to be set to "Windowed". If you're already set to "Windowed", try full screen. I have a large laptop that I used to play on, and could only play in full screen in order to get over 4 windows.
