EPrime display settings for widescreen monitors

Hi all,

Our lab just got a new experimental laptop which has a slightly different 
screen size than our other 2.  We run about 6 different experimental tasks 
in EPrime on all 3 of these machines, and when we use the new one with the 
wider monitor, all of the images and text get stretched horizontally.  I 
understand that I can fix the problem by changing the properties for each 
image on EPrime, but I'm wondering if there is some more general setting 
that I can change for the one computer so that images won't be stretched 
and I won't need to change individual settings within each script.  Our old 
laptops use a display setting of 1024x768 pixels, and this new one uses 
1366x768.  Changing the display settings for the computer itself doesn't 
fix the problem, so I wonder if I can do it within EPrime.  In PowerPoint, 
for example, when presentations are viewed fullscreen on a widescreen 
monitor, it fills the sides with blank space so that everything can be done 
on a standard display size and avoid stretching.  I'm wondering if I there 
is an equivalent setting within EPrime.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Josh
