I'm using Windows 7 on a 8.9' monitor with 1280x768 screen resolution. Using the might of arithmetics, I'm able to determine that my dpi (actually ppi) should be 167. Win7 is really helpful in that it doesn't have to restart to apply new dpi settings, unlike its predecessors (though I'd rather it applies straight away).
The problem with small monitors in Windows is that when you come across windows too big to fit the screen, you can't move the title bar far above it. In X window managers I used in the past, you could alt-drag the window to anywhere you want, but in Windows, even if you alt-space and select move, it will automatically push the window back until the title bar is visible.
I'm looking for a solution that either:
allows me to move window freely without regard to titlebar visibility, or
attach a scrollbar to existing window, or
EDIT: create virtual desktops that allow me to span windows over 2 desktops, or
EDIT 2: allow me to set larger virtual resolution, then pan & scan.
EDIT 3:
I found some progs that might do some of the above:
1) AltDrag
allows me to drag, resize using alt and left/right mouse button. Neat! Best solution so far.
2) GiMeSpace Desktop Extender
is supposed to allow me to scroll desktop. Didn't work. The other new version, GiMeSpace Ultimate Taskbar worked, but it destroys my Superbar, replacing it with its map.
