Scene setting question: switching between 4:3 screen and 16:9 screen.
I normally work on a laptop with 16:9 screen at home and 4:3 screen at office. Each time when I set up the scenes on the laptop then came to the office all the views were shown narrower on 4:3 monitors; later after working on office monitor the narrower views showed on the laptop even I didn’t update any scene setting. But if I did update the scene setting to be satisfied on the 4:3 they would then end up wider on 16:9.
I hope I explained my question understandable. Anyone please give me suggestions. I'd appreciate it a lot.

Scene settings are based on the vertical field of view. Whatever your aspect ratio, the vertical Field of view will be the same. As a result the horizontal field of view is variable.

I got rid of my docked toolbars quite long ago (and use Jim's custom toolbars plugin). This allows me to size my window according to my needs with a nifty little program called sizer. I have set up two window sizes for SU; one is 4:3 (exactly 1024x768) while the other is 16:9 (1200:675).
I find it very handy especially with animation export where you have to use either aspect ratio.

Gaieus, Thank you so much for your response. I’ve been bothered by this issue for long time and you just saved me.

What?
Are you now converted to "No docked toolbar"?
(Note that many suffers from toolbars rearranging the SU Window and this is a very cool way to stop that, too!)
