Let’s go one step further, making the display “look like” 1024 by 640 pixels: Going the other way, here’s one size smaller than the default, which “looks like” 1280 by 800:Įverything is a little bit bigger, and the browser window (which I haven’t resized) now takes up most of the screen. If you have good eyesight, this setting can make your Mac’s display feel quite a bit bigger, allowing you to have more things on the screen at once. The result is similar to changing resolution on older Macs, but without the visual distortions.Īre you wondering what this looks like? Well, here’s my desktop set to the default setting, which “looks like” 1440 by 900 pixels.Īnd here it is when I choose the “More Space” option, which “looks like” 1680 by 1050 pixels:Īs you can see, the browser window takes up a lot less space on my desktop now, and the menu bar looks quite a bit smaller. And to be clear, your system resolution doesn’t actually change if you choose a different setting: just the scaling of things like text and interface elements will change. The precise choices offered will vary depending on your specific Mac model. These numbers are somewhat arbitrary, in that they are related to how previous-generation Macs looked at particular resolutions. The option above the default “looks like” 1680 by 1050. The two options below the default “look like” 1280 by 8 by 640, as I work my way down.

The default, for example, “looks like” 1440 by 900 pixels, which you can see by hovering your mouse pointer over the option. I’m presented with four options, all of which “look like” a hypothetical resolution on a previous-generation Mac.
