The information in this article applies to:

 SOFTIMAGE 3D for IRIX, versions 3.7, 3.71 == SOFTIMAGE 3D for Windows NT, versions 3.7, 3.71 == 

= SYMPTOMS =

When running SOFTIMAGE 3D in full screen mode on a screen with a resolution higher than 1280 x 1024, the mouse pointer does not function beyond the 1280 X 1024 perimeter.

= CAUSE =

This default setting is by design.

= RESOLUTION =

If your screen resolution is 1920 X 1035, 1920 X 1080, or 1920 X 1200, you must set the new SI_SCREENRES environment variable. To do this:

On IRIX, use the command:

setenv SI_SCREENRES 

On Windows NT, use the command:

set SI_SCREENRES 

Where  can be SI_1920X1035, SI_1920X1080, or SI_1920X1200
