Get More Screen Space On a Retina Macbook Pro
If you’re the owner of a Retina Macbook Pro – and still have a healthy pair of eyes – here’s how to manually adjust the screen resolution to show more space on your Macbook’s screen.
Get More Screen Space On a Retina Macbook Pro
- Open System Preferences and choose “Displays”
- Go to the “Display” tab and next to ‘Resolution:’ choose the “Scaled” radio button to reveal additional resolution options
The additional options depend on whether you have a 13″ or a 15″ MacBook Pro.
For a 15″:
- “More Space” looks like 1920×1200
- The 4th option looks like 1680×1050 – my favorite sofar
- “Best (Retina)”, 1440×900, the default setting
- 2nd option looks like 1280×800
- “Larger Text” looks like 1024×640
For comparison, here’s what Logic Pro X looks like with the default setting “Best (Retina)”:
The 4th option, 1680×1050:
The 5th option increases screen real estate even more, but whether that works for you really depends on your daily carrot intake.
