  3. Change monitor aspect ratio

    The aspect ratio of your monitor is fixed and can't be changed, because it depends on the arrangement of the pixels on the screen.

    When you display an image on your monitor whose aspect ratio is different from the aspect ratio of your monitor, what you'll see depends on how different the aspect ratios are. Usually, you see black bars on the top and the bottom of the screen, or on the
    left and the right, a familiar appearance known as 'letterboxing.'
