Not good resolutions

[chrideefer]

The resolutions in settings aren't fit formost displays. I would reccomend adding 1920x1080 (That's what most moniters are!)

What version of theShell are you using? theShell only shows resolutions your monitor claims to support.

Sorry about that other chat.
Anyway, how do I figure out what version i'm using?

[chrideefer]

I'm on VMware player 15 trying to figure out how to install VMware tools, but then i was trying to change to 1920x1080.

It's under the About page in System Settings.

theShell isn't showing 1920x1080 because VMware hasn't told theShell that it supports that resolution. If you're running anything under version 8.1, theShell doesn't manage any of the screens at all; it's all done by KDE.

[chrideefer]

So is there something i can do? What about VMware tools?

[chrideefer]

Also I can't find what version.

You can try installing VMWare Tools and see if that'll set the resolution correctly, but other than that I don't think there's much you can do to resolve it.
