Screen Resolution for Desktop Apps

[Richmond Mathewson]

Well, for starters, my experience tells me that one's standalones should 
have a fixed resolution
(I generally go for something like 1024 x 768 minus a bit on the 
vertical to take into account "screen furniture"
such as men bars, start bars and docks).

Then I have a routine in the stackScript or the script of the first card 
that checks the end-user's screen-res:
the stack can then flash up a window that says something like this:

"This program requires a minimum screen resolution of 1024 by 768, and a 
screen resolution of
more than 1280 by 960 is not recommended"

I had some Windows 10 users reporting difficulty in setting the screen resolution to run my apps.  Hence, my question about setting the minimum screen resolution for my apps.  So, do I need to set the screen resolution of my apps if I am using a version of LiveCode that has a resolution setting?
