Shrink Visible Display Area

I am trying to shrink/re-scale the visible display area of my desktop.... so I end up with a smaller display area and a black border around all four sides of the screen.

Is this possible and if so what would be the best way to go about it?

Thanks in advance.

1. Go to System Tools | System Settings | Displays to change your resolution.

2. Use your monitor buttons to resize the screen - one sure way of getting a black border! :D


Hi There,

I dont have the options you advise....

I can change the resolution via the Control Centre, however, this will not give me a smaller display :(
