	How do I measure the "Command Area" or "Command Tree" height and width, to determine the size I would like to specify in sesame.ini? When I export the global settings from Sdesigner, I get: Quote: COMMAND AREA WIDTH: 250 COMMAND TREE HEIGHT: 300 COMMAND TREE MODE: FULL However, this does not really relate to the sizes I would like in Runtime, and Sdesigner dows not show the tree the same way runtime does (if it did, I would size it and then export those settings) Is there a rule of thumb to determine these sizes? Currently I'm actually drawing on my screen with a pencil to try to get a feel for its size.

	Take a Ruler and measure the height of your screen, just the screen portion not the holder. Might want to use CM/MM since they are easier to divide by ten. Find your Screen resolution by right-clicking on the Desktop and choosing Properties and go to the settings Tab. Second number is Height Divide your Height by the number of CM to get Pixels per CM Then set your Menu Tree to be the size you want it to be. Measure the Menu Tree and then Multiply that number by the Pixels per CM The resulting number is the number you want to use. So if you have a Screen that is 30cm tall and your resolution height is 1024, then your pixels per cm is 34.13. Now if the command area that you like is 7.3 cm wide you multiply that by 34.13 and get 249.149, round it up to 250 and use it. -Ray
