Swapping from Window to Fullscreen problem

[strategus]

Hey,

I've got GBPVR set up to launch fullscreen on a second monitor (my TV).

When I hit ALT+Enter to swap it from fullscreen into a window, it's fine.

But when I hit ALT+Enter AGAIN to switch it BACK to fullscreen, it expands the image fully (without borders), but does not center it on the screen. In other words, it's expanded to the correct SIZE of a fullscreen image, but the top left corner of the image is nowhere near the top left corner of the screen -- the whole thing hangs off of the screen.

Hope I've explained it properly. Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks,
S.

are you using a windows skinner like WindowBlinds?

[strategus]

Nope.

Just plain old Windows XP.

Normal "Maximizing" of all my windows (including GBPVR) works just fine. But when I try to do a proper 'borderless' fullscreen of GBPVR with the ALT+Enter, it doesn't work the way it should.

i have this issue as well, though i had thought it seemed to have appeared when i started using WindowBlinds rather than a version change. it has spung up here with a few other users as well, although i don't think there was ever a consensus on a fix. i get "around" the issue by launching GBPVR with a batch file. in the batch before i call GBPVR i merge a .reg file into the registry which sets the GBPVR last window position settings to be the top left corner. then when windowing down from fullscreen the GBPVR window is in the top corner. as long as i don't move it from there, when going back to fullscreen there is full coverage...

It's strange that this seems to be the first anybody has mentioned it.

I searched the forums before posting, and couldn't find anything. Maybe people just don't try doing it very often?

Sub, does it exhibit the same behavior on your system?

Ive seen threads on this topic before, though not for a while.

At the time Sub said it was a video driver related problem. I get it on my system with my fairly pants integrated graphics chip. ive had it since i first found GBPVR around the .94 days. its not really spured me into finding a workaround though as like Strategus says, not really something i need to do...
