Choosing the board size

In addition of themes, Four Winds offers four different board sizes.

Small (640x480) and Medium (800x600) size boards display discards in separate view and use several pop-up windows (e.g., the Wall window, Game Manager window, Dora Tiles window, Discards window and Available Tiles window) to display additional game information.

Large (1024x768) and Extra Large (1280x1024) boards use an integrated layout, where all game information is displayed in one view divided in panes and child windows which are always visible and cannot be moved.

To choose the board size:

Click the View menu to open it.
Choose the desired board size using the menu options.

Note: The available options depend on the current screen resolution.
