Bill's point is well teken:
I have only been a JFW user for 6 months or so and use other products
besides, but there does seem to be a need for JFW to be more flexible in
its screen resolution options. Perhaps it is not so much a question of
rewriting the frames etc to fit the resolution, but building something in
to JFW to interpret all possible resolutions on a PC and automatically
label those graphics accordingly. I'm not sure if this is possible given
the present methods, but we do require more flexibility in this regard.
