Query : Display size #120

I have a question about display size. Will this work for display size other than official RPi display? How does the cranskshaft application know the display size? or is it something done by aasdk?

Yes it works for other display sizes. That is mine on a 8" touchscreen:

Tested/Working Phone: Asus Zenfone 3 Laser Android:7.1 Raspberry Pi 3B Image:2018-03-13 Custom Touchscreen: CTF 800 wmsl (www.cartft.com) USB DAC (soundcard):Hiresfi usb dac 5122A

To get the HDMI Output to 800x480 vga Resolution I have edited config.txt:

disable_overscan=1 hdmi_force_hotplug=1 hdmi_group=2

hdmi_mode=87

set specivic CVT mode

hdmi_cvt 800 480 60 6 0 0 0 config_hdmi_boost=4

Crankshaft/OA does not care about the display sizes. I have seen screens as big as 10 inches connected to a Pi and it works just fine!

With coming csng-pre8 a new scaling gui is included respecting real sceen size.
