I'm assuming you mean window size and not ppi... I don't
think it would be possible for any software tho actually change
resolution for a part of the screen. That would have to be done
by a graphics chip/card and I've never heard of it being possible.
Maybe this is a dumb question, but why not just use the program
at "normal" size and hand-size it. Most programs will remember
that setting when they open. My monitor is 27"/1920x1080. There
are few programs that I use at fullscreen.
Or did you just want to remind us again that you can use your
computer as a drive-in theater? :)
