Issue with Test Running in Fullscreen

[maximusfink]

Hi all, new to the AGS forums.

I'm trying to test run my game in fullscreen. When I hit control F5, or run without debug mode, it has the same effect as the default test run option. The maximize button is still unable to be clicked. I'm running windows 7. I'm sure this is a simple problem but I can't find any help from the FAQ or tutorial.

thanks for any assistance.

Have you tried using the setup to change to full screen?

Also:

The maximize button is still unable to be clicked.

The window of an AGS game can never be rescaled during run-time (his includes toggling between fullscreen and windowed modes). The maximise button is just useless.
So yeah, set up the game like Andail suggested.

In case you need directions, compile the game (F7), then open winsetup in the Compiled folder. In there, use the x2 or x4 filter for a 320-game (most graphic cards can no longer display 320x2X0 @ fullscreen).
In the AGSEdit menu, open File -> Preferences and in the top left corner, select "Always run fullscreen" or "Use game setup configuration".
