Comment(by FGrose):

 After <Alt,> help... update code from server : 4.0.2206

 I noticed that the '''enableVirtualOLPCDisplay''' preference is set to
 true and is bolded, indicating it is a project-specific property.

 While running SoaS from a USB flash disk on a 1280x1024 monitor, I have
 the '''Display Actual Pixels''' option available, which I prefer using,
 because it sharpens the image on my screen.  So, I want to return to that
 mode globally rather than on a by-project basis.

 Assuming there is a globalDisplayMode property initialized to 1200x900
 scaling, would the following projectOpen logic be reasonable?
 (in LargeTalk:)
 {{{
 when the ScreenSize > 1200x900, then
    use globalDisplayMode (it was set by the user as preferred)
 when its = 1200x900, then
    use 1200x900 (No Scaling)
 when its < 1200x900, then
    use 'Scale To Fit'.
 }}}

 Thanks for all your good work!
