Fullscreen?

by Jason Arthur · in General Discussion · 10/28/2006 (2:16 pm) · 4 replies

I deleted the 'options' icon from my main menu, is there another way to access this area?
I am trying to switch to fullscreen.

Also, could anyone suggest a resource that details the pro's and con's of fullscreen mode?

I searched the forums and TDN but have not found anything that really answers my questions.

Open the console using (~) and type this in:
canvas.pushDialog(optionsDlg);

I'd say a pro about having fullscreen is higher resolutions are available.

A con would be that you have to do a fix in your EXE to stop it from crashing when you press Alt-Tab.

You can also use Alt-Enter to enter fullscreen. The Alt-Tab fix is likely in the latest version now, but if it isn't it's rather trivial to do it.

Thanks for the help, I am now able to switch to fullscreen mode.

Im not sure what the latest version of 1.4 is, but I got my copy in early July and Alt-Tab still crashes the system.

I'll check for the fix tonight.
