[Bug 44364] New: Wincfg does not save graphics preferences
https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44364 Bug ID: 44364 Summary: Wincfg does not save graphics preferences Product: Wine Version: 2.6 Hardware: x86 OS: Mac OS X Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org Reporter: alex(a)stty.io When using wine 2.6 under MacOS 10.12.6 (Sierra), when opening winecfg and trying to change the settings under the graphics tab, it is not saved upon apply->OK. The changes made were "Emulate a virtual desktop" -> YES "Desktop size" -> 2560x1440 This is required to prevent wine from using two monitors (the secondary monitor is just blacked out) when trying to run full screen applications (mostly games). I understand that wine 2.6 does not keep a ~/.wine configuration directory but rather uses registry settings but I can't find the required keys in regedit and I can't find where it is set by looking through the source: https://github.com/wine-mirror/wine/blob/master/programs/winecfg/x11drvdlg.c Please let me know if I'm missing anything or if this is intended behavior.

We should probably either disable the option or don't show it at all when using winemac.drv, although that's not quite as trivial as it may perhaps sound. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 34374 *** -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

Thanks for the prompt response, I'll just live with one monitor blacked out I suppose. I wonder if it will be possible to override this somehow on the MacOS side of things itself? -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

My apologies for the duplicate report - I didn't search for just that option in the bug tracker.
Thanks for the prompt response, I'll just live with one monitor blacked out I suppose.
For what it's worth, virtual desktops should work when using winex11.drv with XQuartz. That setup has its own disadvantages though.
I wonder if it will be possible to override this somehow on the MacOS side of things itself? Not that I'm aware of, but I'm by no means an expert on the subject.
