"Ninth Task: Change screen resolution.

This was easy from the Preferences menu under Screen Resolution, and she
changed it to the smallest size available: 720×400. However, she clicked
“Keep settings” straight away, and couldn’t work out how to get it back
because the screen was too small to display the entire height of the
Screen Resolution menu. Eventually I had to do it for her by tabbing
through the options.

This is pretty ridiculous – you can’t make it shorter and you can’t move
it up past the top of the screen. There’s no way I can see of being able
to change the resolution using that menu when you’re on a small
resoltion – without tabbing to invisible options that you don’t know are
there. Maybe I’m just missing something, I’d be happy to be
enlightened."

Can something be done about this? Not everyone would do this, but it
would be nice to be able to easily recover from this sort of problem!
