Hmm, I find the default quickres.ini a bit restrictive, I prefer to have
various sizes and aspect ratios (ie square, 4x3, 3x2, 16x9, 2x1 etc).
Perhaps it could be modified to support more ratios?  That being the case,
the little window in POV-Win that shows the current selection would have to
be larger, so you could see the full description...

I'm sure you can manage to do this ... try hitting the 'edit' button on the
render settings dialog.

A bit of advice...

People should ask if something is possible before putting in a feature request.

Of course I can (and do) edit my own, I was referring to the one that comes
with POV by default.

Well, I'm so used to MS apps that I didn't realize you could resize the
combo-box... Sorry <g>

  There are many MS apps where the same feature is used. For example in IE
you can change the length of the address field

-- 
#macro N(D,I)#if(I<6)cylinder{M()#local D[I]=div(D[I],104);M().5,2pigment{
rgb M()}}N(D,(D[I]>99?I:I+1))#end#end#macro M()<mod(D[I],13)-6,mod(div(D[I
],13),8)-3,10>#end blob{N(array[6]{11117333955,
7382340,3358,3900569407,970,4254934330},0)}//                     - Warp -

In fact this is a standard ability of the 'rebar' common control. Any windows
standard control placed into a rebar band (like the combobox in our case) will
automatically be resized to the size of the band (which means that if the band
is resizable, so is the control).
