fs.setResolution(screen.width, screen.height) not supported

[swinton]

I'm trying to set full screen resolution to the screen.width and screen.height but it doesn't seem to be supported, my sketch just defaults to the sketch size, i.e.

void setup(){
// set size to 640x480
size(640, 480);

// 5 fps
frameRate(5);

// Create the fullscreen object
fs = new FullScreen(this);

fs.setResolution(screen.width, screen.height);

// enter fullscreen mode
fs.enter();
}

Any suggestions for making this work?

well, the size of the sketch should always be the size of the sketch :) what exactly goes wrong? in this case the sketch should be 640x480, the screen resolution should not switch and when in fullscreen mode you should have a black spacing border around your sketch. is that what is happening?

Yep, that is what is happening (I'm getting the black border).

I think I've sorted this now, by explicitly setting the frame and sketch size in draw(), depending on whether we're in full-screen mode, i.e.:

import fullscreen.*;
FullScreen fs;

void setup() {
  size(640, 480);
  fs = new FullScreen(this);
}

void draw() {
  if (fs.isFullScreen()) {
    // change the sketch size for full-screen mode
    size(screen.width, screen.height);
    frame.setSize(screen.width, screen.height + 22);
    fs.setResolution(screen.width, screen.height);
  } else {
    size(640, 480);
    frame.setSize(640, 480 + 22);
    fs.setResolution(640, 480);
  }

  // start sketching... :)
}

actually this is exactly expected behaviour, i think what you want is simply this:

void setup(){ // set size to 640x480 size(640, 480);

// 5 fps frameRate(5);

// Create the fullscreen object fs = new FullScreen(this);

fs.setResolution( 640, 480 ); // or use fs.setResolution( width, height ) instead!

// enter fullscreen mode fs.enter(); }

(without your extra code from draw)

in the next version some kind of automatic scaling to the screen size will be added, but it's gonna be a bit of wait. until then you're stuck with this behaviour.

sorry, have to close because it's not a bug, but your wish will be taken care of (one day...)
