Web browser and changing resolution

Optimal screen resolution for working with Akila 2.0 is 1280 X 1024. In the event that your desktop does not support 1024 lines of vertical resolution (e.g. you have an older 1024 x 768 screen, or a widescreen laptop that supports 1200 x 800), you may have to zoom in your web browser page. In the Internet Explorer main menu, select View, go to Zoom and start by selecting 75%. If this is not enough, go back in the View menu and the Zoom submenu and select Custom and apply the right amount of zoom you need with your screen resolution. The trick is to zoom in just enough to see the Action drop down tool bar. The following screen was adjusted to 90%:
