Is there a way to disable fullscreen option?

[Mint]

Hello!

I was wondering if you can disable the fullscreen option in preferences.

If it was in the tutorials or anything, then I'm sorry I didn't look hard enough X_X (or is it even possible?)

Thanks =)

Although it's not properly documented yet, the way to do this is:

Code: Select all

init:
    $ _remove_preference('Display')

I'm curious, though... why?

I could give my own personal reason though it probably won't match : Ren'Py PhoenixW had a non-standard resolution that made fullscreen an awful place to be into ^^;...

Awesome! Thankyou! It worked!

My drawings looked really weird when it got into fullscreen mode...
Like their faces were stretched out.

Thanks again ^^!

Do you have a wide screen? And what resolution is your game in?

I'm working on a 1024x768 res.. does that mean my game's that res too? O_O I don't think I have a wide screen... >.<

My mother has a little laptop with a screen capable of displaying 1024x768, but it's nearly twice as wide as it is tall and has notably-elongated rectangular pixels, so she sets it to 1024x600 (IIRC) to get the correct aspect ratio on displayed images.

The simple way to check whether it's the software or your monitor is to get a ruler or tape measure and measure first how wide and then how tall your screen is in physical units. Divide the width by the height - if you get one and a third (1.33...) then you have a screen that has the same aspect ratio as a 1024x768 working resolution, and if you have the same aspect ratio you shouldn't see elongation. (IIRC the default Ren'Py resolution is actually 800x600, but it's the same ratio.)
