Looking for Program to Project on TV to track Auction.... (1 Viewer)

[Black]

I used Draft Dominator yesterday in a Draft, and planned to do the same for my upcoming Dynasty kick-off Auction, but the font/letters are too small. On a large TV, there's just more grey space.

Increasing the Windows font size does not affect letters within the application...

Does anyone know a program that I could use to track the Draft Board and monies remaining for an Auction?

EDIT:

Changing Windows Fonts doesn't affect font size within the DD app and screen resolution changing does not work...just makes a smaller frame in the center of the large 1080p TV. However....

I found a free little program that will 'magnify' anything you point at. Located at CNET's download.com and tested Spyware free. It has good reviews, and I figure it out in about 5 minutes.

You basically run the program, and hit "+" to make it magnify bigger, "-" to make it smaller, and move the mouse to position on the center of what you want magnified. You can hit "*" to 'lock' it once you have the right magnification and location.

Since you aren't looking for something to run the auction, just use Excel.

I thought about that, but would probably want to customize it to some degree, color coding different positions, creating a list of pre-populated Player names....I guess it wouldn't be hard for each team to have One Column for Players bought, and a second column for Price Paid, then show the Totals for each team.I could cut and paste a list of name from one tab to the other, but would be nice to have a double click the name sort of thing...as it works in DD.

See resolution in edited first post....

You could also just change the resolution of the screen to 800x600 or 1024x768.

No that doesn't work....see comment about resolution.It just makes a smaller frame in the center of the large TV.

I'll PM you a link to the Excel spreadsheet we use to project our auction when I get home later. You might find it helpful.
