Expected or bug?: Screens resize when table is launched #166

I did my best to scour this before posting - but didn't see a direct connection - so here it goes: PinballY works great - really easy setup - does what it's supposed to - but when I launch a table it does something odd. At first the playfield has a nice loading screen that fills the screen and includes the wheel graphic - very nice - but as it loads VPX changes the resolution and therefore you see the playfield and the backglass on the the playfield monitor but much smaller and the windows desktop.

In writing this I may have figured out why - my Windows resolution settings are lower than my VPX table settings. If I were to set my resolution for windows at the same settings as I do my tables - would it do that? I'm guessing it's doing that because Windows and VPX are at odds resolution wise. Any thoughts?

Ok...well my hypothesis was proven right. I got home this evening - set Windows resolution and VPX resolution to be the exact same...lo and behold the load screen persists and light shown down from the heavens.
