Dual Monitor Setup - anijsth7c4 - 22-11-2014 02:37 PM

I have a Dual Monitor Setup and the available graphics options (fulscreen and windowed) just don't do it for me.

Fullscreen: I see it on one screen but can't switch between windows without the game minimizing

Windowed: either the game is too small and fits in the middle of my screen but everything is tiny, or the game is a bit to big and I have to position it exeacly in order to view everything.

what I would like is a Fullscreen (windowed) mode, where it fills one screen but I can still have other windows open on my second monitor.

Just an Idea

Thanks for this. Are you not able to change the resolution in windowed mode so that it is pretty much full screen? This is how I play it most of the time

if I put it on the only other resolution option I can fill one screen (provided that I am really carefull with my positioning of the blue bar above) but on my other (main) screen I hit the upperside of my screen and then I can't see what is at the bottom. So in that scenario, I find it preferable to lower the resolution and just... squint at the monitor Tongue

While your solution is possible (on one screen)... it just gets annoying after a while, having to position the window as precisely as possible...

(am I making sense here? Huh

What resolutions are you talking about? I presume you get a dropdown with quite a lot?

RE: Dual Monitor Setup - anijsth7c4 - 26-11-2014 03:10 PM

Actually, I just get two options:

Resolution on: 1280x720

Resolution on: 1920x1080

[I could use my other screen where I have a little less trouble with the size, but I need that one for work related programs that I have to keep my eye on]

Edit: flickr links didn't quite work right
