I was experimenting with the public screen manager in MUI 3.2, and I found
I could create FULL overscan screens on my A1200 030 w/1942 monitor.  For
some weird reason, however, I cannot create a full overscan workbench
screen from workbench prefs.  I am using DBL NTSC Hi Res No Flicker for my
display driver each time.  When I use the overscan prefs in workbench, it
will not allow me to move the screen to the left (it says it is already at
position 0).  This means that even with the overscan button depressed on
my monitor, there is about a one-inch black gap on the left of my screen
before my workbench screen starts.  But if I create a public screen with
MUI, using the exact same screen display mode, I can create a screen that
STARTS about one inch to the left of my monitor with the overscan button
off!!!

Is there a way I can get the workbench to use the full capacity of it's
possible screen size?  [I'm running WB 3.0]
