[Bug 24113] New: wine 1.3.1 ignores winecfg's "Emulate a virtual desktop" setting

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24113

Summary: wine 1.3.1 ignores winecfg's "Emulate a virtual
                    desktop" setting
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.3.1
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

To reproduce:
1. Run "wine winecfg"
2. Under the Graphics tab, enable "Emulate a virtual desktop"
3. Close the window and run "wine winecfg" again

Note that the winecfg window is not inside of a virtual desktop.

The reason I use virtual desktops is because so many games on wine seem to
forget to restore my desktop resolution when they exit or crash. It also allows
me to keep my monitor at its native resolution (1920x1080) even while playing
old games that only support the old traditional 4x3 resolutions (640x480,
800x600, 1024x768).

Works fine here in wine-1.3.1-68-g70d8fce, perhaps you should check that
there's not a process still running for your wineserver and that it shuts down
after you modify the virtual desktop setting.

Works fine here.

When you still can't get a virtual desktop, please reopen and attach a log.

WINEDEBUG=+process,+tid,+explorer wine <yourapp.exe> 2>&1 | tee log.txt

You can also use explorer to create a named desktop.
Example:
wine explorer /desktop=myname,1024x768 winemine

Most likely invalid. Closing.
