Title: Fullscreen problem
Post by: Lorcatar on January 11, 2015, 04:54:05 am

The following is fine
   

    sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(600, 600),
                "SFML WORKS!", sf::Style::Fullscreen);

However the following is not fine. (resolution changed)

        sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(1024, 768),
                "SFML WORKS!", sf::Style::Fullscreen);

The second one doesn't create a true fullscreen window. There is actually the windows explorer showing at the bottom, and all the icons are fully functional. What is the problem? Am I limited to a 1x1 aspect ratio when using sfml?

Is your mode valid? (sf::VideoMode::isValid())

Use sf::VideoMode::getFullscreenModes() to get the list of valid settings.

Thank you, that solved the issue.

        std::vector<sf::VideoMode> i = sf::VideoMode::getFullscreenModes();
        sf::RenderWindow window(i.front(), "SFML WORKS!", sf::Style::Fullscreen);
