The whole point it to not needing virtual desktop at all. Especially for full screen programs.
If the virtual desktop is not needed we can remove it. But the virtual desktop is still needed because it can solve a lot of problems. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Surely there would be much more problems if we would look at every open bug report. But one argument is still missing: Why do we have the virtual desktop if there are "no problems"? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

This is quite irrelevant to the original enhancement request anyway. You have the option to change the virtual desktop resolution. It might be interesting to make the default resolution identical as the resolution at wineboot, but that's up to whoever would work on it (and julliard) to decide whether it's worth it. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

For example I only use VD that is smaller then my main display's resolution. Or I'm setting it to the size of my secondary monitor. In both cases this is not what you asked.

It could be an additional checkbox in winecfg which is only clickable if "Emulate a virtual desktop" is activated. It could be named "Automatically use the system resolution". -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

It'd have to be to fit on the screen, but that also presents its own set of problems.

https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29947 --- Comment #17 from sworddragon2(a)aol.com --- My initial thought when I created this ticket all the years ago was that such an option would just map transparently to the screen resolution (as if the screen resolution would have been entered manually into the "Desktop size" fields of "Emulate a virtual desktop"). -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
