[Coco] VCC full screen mode and Windows 10

[Bill Pierce]

Wayne, VCC DOES support the maximize button. You must check "Allow Resize" in the Config/Display" tab.
I've run VCC on WinXP, Vista, 7, 8, & 10 on square, wide screen and double monitors, and the full screen didn't act as you describe, nor has anyone else complained of this problem. In full screen mode, VCC changes the video resolution (800x600, IIRC) and it sounds like your graphics driver isn't taking it well... Try updating your graphics driver.

Subject: [Coco] VCC full screen mode and Windows 10

I finally tried putting VCC into full screen mode today. I like the way itlooks, but I don't like what it does to the Windows 10 windows when I goback to normal mode.Every window I have open, as well as a few apps that I don't, are in theupper-left corner of the screen and are all the same size as the normal VCCwindow. It took me some time to get them back the way I had them before. Idon't think this is the way VCC should behave.Along with a fix to this, I would like to see VCC support the maximizebutton and maximize the window instead of forcing the user to usefull-screen. I need to switch windows alot and full-screen does not makethis easy. And with my eyes these days, the normal window is almost toosmall to read.Thanks to all of you who are working to make VCC better. This isn't acomplaint as much as a feature request.-- WayneThe Structure of I-Codehttp://www.cocopedia.com/wiki/index.php/The_Structure_of_I-Codedecodehttp://cococoding.com/wayne/-- Coco mailing listCoco at maltedmedia.comhttps://pairlist5.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/coco
