Fullscreen API custom resolution
Apr 19th, 2010, 1:24pm  
I'm using the fullscreen library (http://www.superduper.org/processing/fullscreen_api/) to show my low-res sketch stretched to fill a high-res monitor.  My monitor is 16:10, so my sketch is running at 768x480. When I call fullscreen.enter(), the sketch does not go fullscreen, it just shows in the center with a large black frame, similar to "present mode."  I get this output as well: "Fullscreen API: Display mode not supported: 768x480."

Any suggestions?

Perhaps using the softfullscreen mode...  Hansi is pretty responsive if you send him a message.

I left a message on the site but I'm trying to get an answer relatively quickly... I've got 2 weeks to sort out the problem.

I did try SoftFullscreen but it threw an error. I didn't try very hard after that so I might give it another go.

Well, I've decided to use another monitor, which is 16:9. It seems that the fullscreen API only supports resolutions that you can find in the display settings, so I'm using 1280x720. That pus it stretched to fullscreen, but there is a black bar at the top that the mouse cursor keeps showing up on (which is a huge issue for my sketch).

EDIT:

In order to get rid of the black bar (on a Mac) you have to export an application, navigate inside it (show package contents) to Contents>Info.plist

Find a line that says:
<key>LSUIPresentationMode</key>

And make sure the line below says:
<integer>4</integer>

If that isn't present, add those two lines to the list according to alphabetical order.
