Cosmetic bug
I set the emu to start maximized but every option that i change makes the window reset itself to its default size, it would be a nice thing if the emu saved the position/size of the window.
Which platform?
Windows, (win7 but i believe this happens with all versions of windows)
As far as windowed modes go, it can't save the position/size of the window because every game has different size/aspect, the emulator has to adjust itself to the game. Maybe "Video -> Auto switch to fullscreen after loading" would better suit you?
@dinkc64 - nope, i'm talking about the window of FBA when NOT running a game, maximize FBA's window, then change one or another option and the main window of FBA will leave its maximized state for no reason, i like the programs on maximized windows like browsers, hardly anyone uses a minimized browser window, right? ;)
I can't promise anything, but I'll take a look at it and see if I can do something to help.

Hi @Felipefpl, It should respect the maximized state now, please give it a try :)
@dinkc64 - nice, where can i download a build to test? There is only the old one here.
should be here : https://ci.appveyor.com/project/tmaul/fbneo-kbhgd/history
@Felipefpl, The current build is under the "Work in Progress builds" on the main fbneo github page, or just click this link: https://github.com/finalburnneo/FBNeo-WIP-Storage-Facility/releases/tag/appveyor-build You'll most likely want this one "fbn-win32-gcc.7z".

@dinkc64 - thanks for the help/link, i tried it, i went to Video - blitter options and tried these settings > set scanline, set phosphor and set 3D projection, all of them set the window to a minimized state, then i maximized the window and tried these settings again, i wasnt able to reproduce the problem, it remained maximized, you are almost there, i mean, i tried other settings and the window remained maximized. ;)
I also noticed a small paused icon in the upper right side, is that for a new feature?
just means no game loaded.
@Felipefpl, Sounds good! The basic and enhanced blitters have OSD icons for pause/recording/netplay etc. Usually it won't show the paused status when a game is not loaded, but certain settings can cause them to be drawn :) What do you mean by almost there?

What do you mean by almost there?
i meant that except by clicking ok in those options that make the window goes back to the minimized state you are almost solving the problem for good. ;)
@dinkc64 - Is there any updates for this? Btw, it's been almost 2 years without an official release, is there any chances we'll see one coming in the near future?
Well, I guess we're really over-due for a release, it's just that most people stick with the nightly builds these days, ...because a day after the release, there's already a new version to be had.
Regarding the original bug, I can't get it to go back to minimized by clicking OK for the phosphor / scanline intens. and 3d projectsion adjustments - is it still happening here or somewhere else?
@dinkc64 - Thanks for the answers, i believe the problem is fixed so i'll close this. Could you/other devs please check it out the other issues? Perhaps they are fixed and there are other old stuff there too. ;)
What other issues are you referring to?
I'm talking about the other 46 open issues here, starting with the oldest ones. ;)
Well, if you know anyone that can fix them - do let me know! On a good week I can kill maybe 3-4 bugs, some bugs which were recently closed took me several attempts over the past 6 months to figure out.
Not much a matter of fixing bugs, some of them are related to other stuff, please have a look at the oldest ones such as the wiki or extra scanline in vs builds https://github.com/finalburnneo/FBNeo/issues?page=2&q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen ;)
