BUG: Fullscreen mode on OS X

[eigen]

Hi, I seem to be having a problem with running the game in fullscreen on OS X. I just updated to the RC. It used to work, I mean I'm not sure exactly which version but SFML 2.

iMac, early 2009, 1920x1200, NVIDIA GeForce 9400 ... thought I doubt it matters because it used to work and I haven't upgraded the software recently.

How the problem manifests:
Unless I use fullscreen mode in the native resolution, what I see on the screen is the bottom-left section of the whole thing. The section drawn is as large as the resolution I wanted.

I took a screenshot. Sorry it it's too big, I think Macs take a screenshot as large as the screen, not as large as the application resolution. Anyway, I ran it in 960 x 600, which is exactly half of the native one.

Also, the mouse is limited to the upper parts of the screen and I can't move it downwards from where it is. It probably goes up but I can't see that.

So, to cap: I see a 960 x 600 bottom-left section of the whole screen supposedly rendered to a 1920 x 1200 buffer/image/texture.

This is how the whole thing should look like:

Could you give me a minimal application (i.e. only a basic main function of ~30 lines of code) that reproduces the issue otherwise I won't be able to test.

Also, tell me exactly which version of SFML and OS you're using.

OS: Mac OS X 10.7.3
SFML: Not sure about the SFML version. I downloaded the RC version from the main website about 4 days ago.

This is the most basic thing ever. Put it in a main function and you're done.

  int w = 640;
  int h = 480;
 
  sf::RenderWindow * app = new sf::RenderWindow(sf::VideoMode(w, h, 32), "Test", sf::Style::Close | sf::Style::Fullscreen);

  while (app->isOpen())
  {
    sf::Event Event;
   
    while (app->pollEvent(Event))
    {
      if (Event.type == sf::Event::KeyPressed && Event.key.code == sf::Keyboard::Escape)
      {
        app->close();
      }
    }
   
    app->clear(sf::Color(64,128,64, 255));
   
   
    sf::RectangleShape shape;
    shape.setFillColor(sf::Color(255,128,128, 255));
   
    // Shape in the middle

    shape.setOutlineThickness(0);
    shape.setSize(sf::Vector2f(w - 100, h - 100));
    shape.setPosition(w/2 - (w - 100) / 2, h/2 - (h - 100) / 2);
    app->draw(shape);
   
    // Shape in the bottom-left corner
   
    shape.setSize(sf::Vector2f(50, 50));
    shape.setPosition(0, h - 50);
    app->draw(shape);
   
    // Shape in the top-left corner
   
    shape.setSize(sf::Vector2f(50, 50));
    shape.setPosition(0, 0);
    app->draw(shape);
   
    // Shape in the bottom-right corner
   
    shape.setSize(sf::Vector2f(50, 50));
    shape.setPosition(w - 50, h - 50);
    app->draw(shape);
   
    // Shape in the top-right corner
   
    shape.setSize(sf::Vector2f(50, 50));
    shape.setPosition(w - 50, 0);
    app->draw(shape);
   
    // Shape on the left edge
   
    shape.setFillColor(sf::Color(128,128,255, 255));
    shape.setSize(sf::Vector2f(50, 50));
    shape.setPosition(0, h/2 - 25);
    app->draw(shape);
   
    // Shape on the right edge
   
    shape.setFillColor(sf::Color(128,128,255, 255));
    shape.setSize(sf::Vector2f(50, 50));
    shape.setPosition(w - 50, h/2 - 25);
    app->draw(shape);
   

    app->display();
  }

Trying out on this simple project I get very weird results. It's no longer the bottom-left section ... most of the time I don't see anything at all.

(I resized the larger images to fit the forum)

640 x 480 windowed mode:


640 x 480 full-screen mode. I don't see anything ... don't know how that's even possible.


Same with 800 x 600. I don't see anything in full screen.

1024 x 768 full-screen mode. Something has appeared.


1280 x 800 full-screen mode. The blue bits have appeared.


Something more arbitary ... 1280 x 1200. This appears to be running in 1920 x 1200 actually, because there is no scaling and everything is pixel pefect.


Native resolution 1920 x 1200 in full-screen mode


I tried with both the dylibs and framework files. No difference.


When running the test app fullscreen in 640 x 480 on a co-workers Macbook Pro (OS 10.7.4, native resolution 1440 x 900) I see this:



Hopefully this helps. Not sure what else I can say.

Arrr yes you're right!

Last time I checked it did work but that was a long time ago. At least 77ec92ce5e4f27111a9abecc56f74e339046b2d2 works but this old (30 january)....

I'll look into it, thanks for the report.

Everything should be working if you get SFML from github now.

Thank you! All is well now
