Hello there, I am working on a little project as a way to improve my cad abilities. I am hoping to build a custom fantasy computer to go along with the pico8 fantasy system. I am basing it off of the Mac se/30 but am obviously hoping to get that nice 1:1 aspect ratio.
Trouble is that decent size 1:1 screens don't seem to exist as far as I have researched, I instead found a small 4:3 lcd panel I can use, and was originally planning to simply rotate the screen and let it render 1:1 while physically covering the top and bottom, but it seems to add significantly more vertical height than I anticipated.
so now I am hoping that I can shift the screen down and somehow get the PI to render only in the topmost visible section.
Included are a couple pictures of what I mean.
I am just wondering if there is a way, in software, to rotate and move up the screen, or at least the pico 8 window
The screen is going to be connected to my pi 4 through HDMI, using x11 most likely. I'm still waiting on the lcd controller so I haven't been able to fully test the setup
You should be able to set up letterboxing using either xrandr or your window manager, although I got pretty unsatisfactory results when I searched for "xrandr letterboxing".
