Davinci Resolve Viewer Size Problem

Hi,

I recently downloaded Resolve and I am having issues with the viewer, specifically in color mode. The viewer is really small and this prevents me from accurately seeing what I am doing. Here are some photos of what I am dealing with:

I the first photo my RGB curves take almost a 1/3 of the screen, with the viewer taking up 10%. The second photo has the Timeline and the Clips viewers enabled; the playback viewer disappears completely.

My screen resolution is 1366x768. Can someone explain to me why that would be an issue, if it is?

Thank-you
 
Hi Rehdarh,

It's an issue because it doesn't meet the minimum system requirements, as noted on Page 4 of the Resolve 12 Configuration Guide:

UI monitor resolutions from 1440 x 900 up to Retina 5K are also now supported.

And in more detail on page 8:

The easiest solution might be to just plug in an external monitor for your GUI and use your existing screen as a video preview.
