Display Size Issue

So, I use a dual monitor set up and when I game I like to run roll20 on the big monitor.. the problem is the scale of the map is so large that to see everything I have to zoom way out.. but when I do that, the menu items on the right hand side (You know.. journal, token art, chat, etc) all gets so small, I can't read it. so I have to zoom in to read the chat.. then zoom out to actually see what is going on on the map.. it is very maddening. Is there a way to resize the two sections of the game table independently or are they forever linked? Any help is appreciated here.. thanks.

Moved to Specific Use Questions since this is not a bug.

The sidebar (journal, token, etc) should not change size when you zoom. It sounds like you are using your browsers zoom function rather than Roll20's built in zoom. To use Roll20's zoom go to the toolbar on the left side, select the magnifying glass and select the desired zoom level. You can also use Alt+Mousewheel (a second form of Roll20 zoom) that is independant of the toolbar zoom.
AHA! I knew I was hosing something up.. I do a lot of my map-making/token building in photoshop. It uses ctrl+/- to zoom in and out.. i had gotten used to doing that.. and it was killing me. Thanks for the info.. problem solved!
