New Features This section provides information on new features introduced in the latest release of the CATALYST™ Software Suite. New features include: Enhanced Rotation Support for Extended Desktop View 720p and 1080i HDTV Mode Support CATALYST™ A.I. Enhanced Rotation Support for Extended Desktop View The CATALYST™ Software Suite 4.10 provides support for Rotation mode in extended desktop view. Currently rotation hotkeys are implemented for simultaneous view but are disabled when the system is in extended desktop mode. This feature will be supported under the Windows XP operating system and is supported on all currently shipping ATI Desktop products. 720p and 1080i HDTV Mode Support The CATALYST™ Software Suite 4.10 introduces support for both 720p and 1080i HDTV mode for both CRTs and DFPs. A new properties tab labeled Troubleshoot is added to the ATI Classic Control Panel for both the FPD and Monitor properties page. The Troubleshoot tab will allow users to force 720p and 1080i modes.

The 720p and 1080i checkboxes are greyed out if rotation is enabled for the display device. CATALYST™ A.I.
