Issues with fullscreen

Open RavenMacDaddy opened this issue 2 years ago • 4 comments

First thing I noticed was that the - for many established ones - shortcuts do not work, being Alt+Enter and F11.

I didn't find any way to map this either, or any mentions in the config file, or any other wiki of any kind how to turn fullscreen on or off in the actual emulator.


The menu bar, at least for me, is always visible, though it's not interactable, and pressing buttons - once again, for many established ones - like Alt or Esc, didn't make a difference.

Basically, it's great if you can show or hide it in fullscreen, but having it both be visible at all times, combined with it not being interactable, really becomes a nuisance.

Hello, thanks for your feedback.

I agree that there should be an option to hide the menu bar in fullscreen.

About the broken menu in fullscreen and missing shortcut: Can you try running the latest nightly build? I addressed the broken fullscreen menu on Windows a while ago and added a shortcut (Ctrl+F) for fullscreen too.

The fullscreen shortcut does work in the nightly build, and the menu bar works there as well, clicking it with the mouse, or pressing Alt to navigate it with the arrow keys - however the underlined letters don't respond to the corresponding keypresses, e.g. F for File, C for Config, and H for Help.

Is it possible that later builds will give the user the option to map the fullscreen toggle to another button (combination)?

Yes, I think it makes sense to expose a way to change the menu shortcuts.

Great, and also in case you didn't catch my edits I've now made some changes to my previous comment.

Not sure, maybe Github is great with real-time updates to not have to refresh the page.

In the latest dev build the menu bar is now hidden by default in fullscreen mode (when a game is loaded). I've also made it even simpler to exit fullscreen (via double-click on the screen or ESC key).

I don't have plans to implement shortcut remapping anytime soon, and I'm not sure how useful it really is. If there's a real demand, it should be requested as a separate Github issue, as it's not related to this issue per se.

You can download the latest dev build here.
