  1. Scaling a window without maximise/fullscreen


    I'm having an issue with a game where it won't load unless it's not fullscreen. I have inserted the command "fullscreen=false" into my shortcut as a workaround and it works very well.


    Unfortunately, the window opens with quite a small size (about 5 inches wide) and maximising it causes the User interface to be shifted into the corner and does not scale with the window, which results in not really being able to use the program very well.


    My question, therefore, is whether it is possible to set a size for the screen in a way that it will all be scaled similarly to fullscreen but not actually being fullscreen.

    :)

    Scaling a window without maximise/fullscreen

    How to automatically dim secondary monitor, when app is fullscreen?

    maximised windows work - its fullscreen that doesnt.

    going back to topic of the dimming, i'm not sure... i think CCC profiles would affect both screens.
