Change fullscreen startup

by Brandon Maness · in Artist Corner · 07/18/2006 (1:08 pm) · 1 replies

I was just wondering if there was a way to stop Constructor from starting in fullscreen mode. I tried changing the prefs, but I'm guessing they aren't being used. Any ideas?

FYI: setRes was a no go. :(

This is *very* ugly, but setScreenMode works if you first set it to fullscreen, then call it again setting the fullscreen parameter to false. You lose the minimize, maximize, and close buttons, and it still sits at absolute 0,0 which is not good if you run your taskbar at the top of the screen like me, but it is at least not 1600x1200 at startup. :)

I'm sure this will be cleaned up on down the road and is pretty low on the priority list, so I thought I'd give an update, and say I have a workable solution for now.
