change resolution?

Somehow my game shows only the upper quarter of the startup screen, as if the game resolution is set to 3840 x 2160. My monitor is only 1920 x 1080. Is there a key to press to allow the game resolution to be set prior to the game starting all the way? If I wait until the game is started I can select settings but cannot see the entire settings window to make changes.

Edit options.lua file from \saved games\dcs\config

There's resolution in height and width values afair.

Yes, but dont use Windows Notepad for editing LUA files .. please use a proper editor, like the free Notepad++ https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwjnlvCPqrvoAhWCILkGHR1iD_cQFjAAegQIERAC&url=https%3A%2F%2Fnotepad-plus-plus.org%2Fdownloads%2F&usg=AOvVaw0PS5PLAu98gCMe4vZAYIqs

Thanks for the advice but editing the height and width values did not seem to work. The game would not start with the edited file. Oh well. I borrowed a monitor that was capable of 4k resolution and got the game running and changed the settings.

The other option is to remove the file. The game will run with default settings and new file will be created.
