Author Topic: Thinking of starting a new fortress. I cannot get Fullscreen to work properly.  (Read 1028 times)

This has been a recurring issue on my laptop for all the newer versions of Classic.

I installed graphics correctly, am running DFHack, and every time I press F11, the top of the screen is drawn above my monitor.  I end up seeing the latter part of the main menu, and not the title.  Without it, I can't play the game in fullscreen, and have to settle for the task bar and window.

Any suggestions on how to fix?

Try this
If Windows is set to scale the display, you may need to disable that for DF. Right-click the Dwarf Fortress.exe icon, select Properties, select the Compatibility tab, and then activate the Disable display scaling on high DPI settings (or Override high DPI scaling behavior, scaling performed by: Application) check box.
