[comp.sys.atari.st] screen pixal hight and width question

Friesen@HIS-PHOENIX-MULTICS.ARPA (06/05/88)

Brain Holmes asked what the three different screen resolutions on the ST
are.

Well, according to documentation, low res offers 320,200 (I think
according to most books) however, I have found that the resolution is
only 319,200 (any comments?).  In med res, it is supposed to be 640,200
(I haven't used many graphics commands in medium res, so I don't know if
this is correct).  In High res it is supposed to be 640,400 (I haven't
experimented with this because I don't have a mono chrome monitor).

Any comments why the ST dosn't have the resolution it should (note:  the
experimenting I have done was with GFA Basic).
