MainUI tool
-
Hi All,
Lately I have picked up an old project I was working on back then.
We all know the Main UI screen in Falcon is hard coded to be 1024x768. Or else to be strectched over all monitors.
As my setup is over 3 monitors, stretching was never a good option and with the default 1024x768 it feels quite small and seeing icons left and right always feels a bit distracting.
So I tried out a lot of ideas to get the Main UI stretched, but only on my middle monitor.
I was able to do this using third party tools or even do it myself in a little program that finds and resizes falcon bms window.Now for the downside I was getting with all off the solutions I tried, namely that the falcon mouse cursor seemed not to be correctly working anymore, it still uses a detection area of 1024x768 instead of my new 1920x1200 area.
Another thing is that actually the stretching makes the screen more low res like you can expect.Well the project I picked up again is to be able to use this stretched mode, but still be able to use all mouse functionality.
I was wondering whether you guys have tried similar things and what your experiences are with it and solutions. Or if you guys know about other solutions to achieve the same and also keep correct mouse functionality.
Cheers Obi1
