@Sebastian.204 yes indeed - I changed it in the editor explorer settings

@ygmantell You have to pick a resolution for your game and work on that constraint, I am not sure what you mean by doing a background on a 8x8 canvas? If you pick 320x240 for example, you will do most of your backgrounds that do not involve scrolling at that resolution (320x240), and then characters and objects will be obviously smaller.
Visionaire will automatically scale everything for full screen monitors and various windows sizes.
