Click Save Mode > OK to save the mode.
If your edits result in a new mode (that is, the X, Y,
BPP, and refresh rate is not already included in the
configuration file), the control panel adds the new
mode to the
.dom
file.
If your edits result in a refresh rate that matches the
whole-number value of an existing refresh rate for
an existing resolution, the mode corresponding to the
new refresh rate overwrites the mode corresponding to
the existing refresh rate in the
.dom
file.
For example, assume you are editing a mode of
1280 x 1024 x 8 with a refresh rate of 72 Hz. If you
make changes that result in a new refresh rate of 76 Hz,
1280 x 1024 x 8 @ 76 Hz replaces 1280 x 1024 x 8 @ 72 Hz
when you save the mode.
