The size of the monitor is unimportant, the resolution is what you want... If we are talking about 2001fp it is 1600*1200. Miniview is 512*365 so 9 tables would fit without overlap (can't people learn to do the math....). Max tables on a standard skin on prima is 5, but there are with 8 also. This will be the last "will it fit/what res do i need" i will answer, and the last i hope to see... This forum is clogged by the same questions every day it seems.

to be fair, the math isn't that clear to me.

a Party table is 800x600, right? and you need 1600x1200 to 4 table.

the calculation to prove why this is true probably isn't that difficult, but I'll admit I don't know how to do it.

Take the resolutions first number (1600, width of the screen) devide it by 800 (width of the table), you get 2 (if you get a number like 2.3455 or something, just skip what is after the .), now take the other number (1200, height of the screen) and divide by the second number of the table size (600), so 1200/600 = 2.

So the screen will fit two side by side and two up and down. Two times two is 4. Four total.

With 1600*1200 and mini view it will be 1600/512 witch is 3.125, witch we round down to 3. Now take 1200/365 witch is 3.xxx so round it down to 3. 3 times 3 is 9, so nine total tables.
