scid was removed from the repository some time ago due to this size problems.
where are you guys getting scid from?

But this rotate stuff might help. I reinstalled my scid version, rotated the screen with size 6 and it should fit yes.

At the moment, this app is not hildonized, forget about fullscreen, it's not implemented. I'll try to see what can be easily done.

qwerty12 where do you get this wmctrl?
