What is the difference between viewing and active area on a LCD module? Which on is larger?

Good question

Active area is smaller, but not by much.
Viewing area is the amount of glass that can be seen, active area is the largest area that can display characters/icons/letters etc.
Active area will be just a bit smaller than viewing,
