    In the account - preferences - project settings under "graphics options", you can select low, medium, high quality, fps, and resolution.

    The highest fps I found was allowed was 200, but for resolution, I've literally set it to 6 "9's", which is one short of a million, and it still accepted this resolution both Height and Width.

    If this doesn't really work in practice, please add the actual limit to these settings, like 4K, 8K, or whatever it actually is, and for the fps option, if you write something higher than 200, please inform the user that the limit is in fact 200, took me quite a while to find this out myself.

      Also, what is the advantage of selecting a higher quality, resolution and fps than the default "low" "800x600" and "20fps"

        I believe those settings apply to the screensaver. If you're not going to use one, you can just leave the settings as is.

          Ok, thanks for the response, but still, doesn't make sense that you can set an unlimited resolution for these settings, so would love to see this fixed :)
