Overlay not working with fullscreen games.

[virtualducky]

Not entirely sure if this is an issue per se, or me misunderstanding how the program works. Whenever I launch a game into fullscreen, the overlay does not appear. Is it only intended for borderless fullscreen?

The most efficient way to fix this could possibly be forcing it to stay on top of every program on the desktop.

It does not work for fullscreen mode. So I use it with borderless (windowed) fullscreen mode. Making it always on top doesn't help it working on the fullscreen mode games. The author of this program says that some particular programmatical methods should be implemented which might be diffcult or burdensome, for making it overlay on the fullscreen mode.

True fullscreen games take over control of the screen and the only overlays that will work are ones that hook into DirectX or whatever is being used. This is a normal windowed app that can display always on top of other windowed apps. Unless I'm mistaken it will only work over windowed or windowed borderless games and apps.

I tried using a 3rd party app that forces borderless window on a non-borderless window supported game or you can just add a non-Steam game then add "-popupwindow" on the Launch Options which worked I think.

I've been meaning to write a guide on how to make it work with all fullscreen games, but it requires some more advanced steps because the program will have to be digitally signed. It's not something I'm able to support myself but there are ways to sign it with certain tools. I'm also not sure if it's the best way to go about it encouraging users to self sign, it sort of disregards the whole point of digitally signed executables. I'm still thinking about all that for now.

So there will be never fullscreen overlay? :(
