Porterd2nz,
I have seen this before and I am still at a loss as to how a ratio of 4:3 is mathematically arrived at from a screen size of 640x480. Dividing 480 by 640 = 0.75. How do I get from 0.75 to 4:3? Likewise, dividing 4 by 6 = 0.6666. How do I get from 0.6666 to a ratio of 3:2? I am sure this will be a “slap my forehead” kind of answer but, I must ask for help no matter how embarrassed I will become.

Thank you
Arvid
