RetroBar renders over some programs in fullscreen

Open PerdGateEnjoyer opened this issue 1 year ago • 16 comments

On some programs, the RetroBar taskbar doesn't disappear when I'm using fullscreen. Most relevant to me are Firefox and Terraria.

Yep, still broken

Thanks for testing! Here is a test version that includes some more fixes, could you please try it? RetroBar.zip

If it still isn't working, could you please enable debug logs in RetroBar Properties > Advanced, reproduce the issue again, then upload the latest log from %localappdata%\RetroBar\Logs?

Good news, it seems to be working now. I opened it using another problematic fullscreen app and it hides fine. The bad news is that it's working too well and doesn't show up when I press the Windows key, which I frequently use to switch out of a fullscreen program.

Thanks! I noticed that as well and fixed it, could you please try this one? RetroBar.zip

In my current configuration it is not working perfectly yet:

  • three monitors 1,2,3
  • Main monitor is 1, scaling is 125%. The scaling on the other two monitors is 100%.
    • Note: Changing the scaling of all monitors to 100% does not solve the problem.
  • Remote desktop is full screen over monitors 2 and 3
  • RetroBar is running on host computer
  • In monitor 3 the remote desktop covers Retrobar correctly, but in monitor 2 the bar is on top of the remote desktop session. I tested all zips in this page

Could you please try what is suggested in this Firefox bug report and let me know if any of those settings work?

It did work, thanks. but sometimes still doesn't go away. like %5-10 of the time.

Which setting ended up working?

Changing widget.windows.fullscreen_marking_method to 2 in about:config fixes it for me
