Forcing fullscreen mode in applications?

Post by deblueseven »

I remember 13 years back or so that my dads laptop as well as his old Macintosh could run stuff in Fullscreen. In my emulation it appears in a small square with everything else black. Anyone knows?

I think you'll need to provide more information. What application are you having issues with? What emulator are you using? What screen resolution is the emulator using? Is *it* in full screen mode? What OS are you running on the emulator?

Answering these questions should provide more information for people to give you an informed answer.

Basilisk II, SheepShaver, Mini vMac, SoftMac don't support resolution switching.

Fusion PC does.

The likely answer is that you need to set your desktop resolution to the resolution of the emulated Macintosh before starting the emulator. But yes, more information would be good.

Fusion PC running in DOSBox, I assume.
