Scrolling in Window Mode, Margins



1. I like looking at the aquarium in window mode instead of full screen. I set the window to about 11 inches tall by 3-4 inches wide and watch it scroll. However, I note that it does not fully scroll to the left and right margins/end of the aquarium. When I try to manually scroll to the far left or right with the arrow keys, it stops short. Why is that?

2. The more horizontally I stretch out the window, the more of the left and right margins show up in scrolling.

3. When I've stretched out the window as far as it will go horizontally on my monitor, on the right hand side, in the back of the aquarium, it shows a very distinct straight horizontal line between the white gravel and the background which looks unnatural to me -- shouldn't there be some little gravel bumps like in the front glass of the aquarium instead of the straight horizontal line separating the white gravel from the background or am I being too picky here?

4. The left hand side of the margin ends with little bit of the shell cut off, is that the end of the left hand side or is there more?


Edit -- Okay -- I changed the dimensions of my window MA3 and it scrolled to the end of the left and right margins. This is my conclusion -->when the vertical length of the window MA3 is longer than the width of the horizontal side, then the margins are compromised and window MA3 will not scroll to the end of the left/right margins. However, When the horizontal width of the window MA3 is wider than the length of the vertical side, then it will scroll to the far left and right hand sides. I think this is because the natural proportion of MA3 is to be wider than longer.
