Fullscreenmode problem

Post by egx »

Hi!
How is it posible to start the program in 'window'-mode?
I have 2 monitors attached and the program is only seen at one screen,
but tries to act like fullscreen - so i can see only half of it.

Thx for any help in advance

Change in your tmw.ini:

screen=1

to

screen=0

I think we should probably make running windowed the default from next version.

thx
besides making this default i would like someday to have a '--help' switch telling something like 'there is a .ini-file: add your wishes there' ;-)
or even better starting with --fullscreen=0 or something like that

and ... nice work - i like it
best wishes

How about this: a launcher that has 3 alternatives - start, options, exit ?

Nah I don't like a launcher, then we'd also need a "./tmw --skiplauncher" option, heh.

But if there's going to be dynamical content updating, wouldn't the launcher be a good way to handle it? (And the --skiplaunch could be left for debugging purposes?)
