Closed filux closed 9 years ago

filux commented 9 years ago

I see some pixels from the desktop on the bottom (main toolbar) and I can click those toolbar's buttons, they work, so for example I can in "fullscreen" take a look on IRC cient :D.

Thx to alket we know more :) : 

<alket> yeah that fullscreen type is used in OpenRA also
<alket> they have two kinds of fullscreen
<alket> filux: it is called Pseudo-Fullscreen
<alket> i just checked it in OpenRA :p

seems like in OpenRA are known 3 Display modes: windowed, fullscreen, pseudo-fullscreen

some example links with some informations/discussion about it: https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/issues/2430 https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/issues/3774 https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/issues/4557

Since c402509 I don't see anything besides game anymore on fullscreen so imo this discussion/issue may be closed for now.
