Hi,
Only recently started using the AGS Editor.
When I run my game in progress from the editor the resulting window is tiny on my big LED screen. The only way I can see it in a decent size is if I build it and then run the exe from explorer but this takes much longer.
Is there any way to get the window to scale up when you run it with F5 in the editor, the same way it does when you run it full screen by executing the exe?
Thanks for the help.
In the current editor, resolutions are very limited and I don't think that's possible.
EDIT: I wrongly thought this wasn't possible, but these are still interesting links!
However there is a (currently experimental) build which gives much more flexible resolution/scaling options. More info here: http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/forums/index.php?topic=49014.msg636480216#new
If you don't want to use an experimental build, for testing purposes you could install AutoHotKey and use this handy script to make any window fullscreen/borderless: http://www.autohotkey.com/board/topic/78903-yabt-yet-another-borderless-window-toggle/?p=579420

You can use the handy "scale-up" filters. Go to Build, then Build Exe, then Run Game Setup and there, select a x2/x3 filter from the list. This will scale up the graphics, and the setting is used when running with or without debugger.
Also, in the preferences of the AGSEditor you can set which setting a Debug run uses.
Which means once you increased the scaling in the Compiled folder (once), running the game from the editor will use that setting.
Great! Thanks so much for all the suggestions and the links.
I changed the scaling through setup in the editor and now have a decently sized window :smiley:
