Need some clarifications on resolutions under different modes of the MacBook Pro 16" 2021

Hello, I read that the  native resolutions of the 16" is 3456-by-2234. Can you clarify the following?


1. Does 3456-by-2234 include the menu bar area (i.e. the area including the notch)?

2. If we don't count the upper part where the menu bar and the notch are located, what is the resolutions?

3. When “Scale to fit below built-in camera” is activated, what is the resolutions of the desktop?


Thank you

  1. the number cited 3456-by-2234 is the total screen area, INCLUDING the area that stays black adjacent to the camera. aspect ratio about 20:9
  2. not counting the black part AND the entire set of rows on which it sits? an area which maintains the 16:9 aspect ratio of UHD TV, but is slightly smaller than standard "4K" which is actually 3840 × 2160
  3. scale to fit: ditto


I read about the aspect ratio business in a third-party article, but of course I cannot find that again when I want to cite it.
