fullscreen game vs. Vista Sidebar

by Tim Scheiman · in Torque Game Builder · 07/31/2010 (8:44 pm) · 1 replies

Hey all,

I'm having issues with my game running in fullscreen with the Vista Sidebar showing up alongside it (it actually scrunches the game over to the left to make room for itself).

I need the game to run fullscreen and shove the sidebar out of the way even if "Sidebar is always on top of other windows" is checked in the sidebar options...

Anyone else seen this or know a way to make the sidebar go away while the game is running? I'm having trouble googling for things like a C++ way to do it, since the results are all "How to make sidebar gadgets" articles. bleh.

Thanks!

So... I'm about to fall off the first page of posts.

Perhaps this isn't the forum for such questions... but I know SOME folks around here have put TGB games through BFG's QA process successfully, and this seems to be a part of it. :) Anyone?

I guess given how MANY issues I have it's probably time to start posting job ads in the help wanted section. :(
