v0.31.25 - How did I do this?
« on: November 08, 2012, 03:57:50 pm »

I used to have the screen set up so the local map was twice as big across as the menu and the area map (but the latter were both visible), and to have the windowed screen resizable-- I could maximize it without going fullscreen.

I have been completely unable to recreate this since reinstalling DF 2010.

How did I do this?

Those options are in Dorf Fort\data\init\init.txt
Right up near the top you'll see WINDOWED, WINDOWEDX, WINDOWEDY, and RESIZABLE, which I think is exactly what you're looking for.

My init file doesn't have RESIZABLE.

My init file doesn't have RESIZABLE.
It should be right under the font selection.
Code: [Select]
[WINDOWED:YES]

This is the size and font for windowed mode.  Changing to the 800x600 font might make you happier.
If set below 256x256 it specifies the grid size instead, with a minimum of 80x25.

[WINDOWEDX:800]
[WINDOWEDY:600]
[FONT:curses_800x600.png]

You may disable window resizing if you wish.
[RESIZABLE:NO]
I'm not sure why it wouldn't be there as it isn't a new feature, but in any case manually adding it should work.

While it is not very new, I am not sure that DF2010 already had the resizable option. If not, manually adding it will not help.

Just checked on my 31.18

Code: [Select]
This is the size and font for windowed mode.  Changing to the 800x600 font might make you happier.
If set below 256x256 it specifies the grid size instead, with a minimum of 80x25.

[WINDOWEDX:80]
[WINDOWEDY:25]
[FONT:curses_640x300.png]

You may disable window resizing if you wish.
[RESIZABLE:YES]

So yes, it should be there in the 31.25, unless something's been changed.

I know there used to be a couple different version of DF; SDL and Legacy, I don't know what's the difference, but mine's from the SDL.

Aha. Somehow I had Legacy installed instead of SDL. Legacy version apparently doesn't include resizing!

ETA: Now I have the option of resizing, but whenever I attempt to do so, it completely blacks-out the screen. What do?

Might be you need to change print mode to make it work? I know some print modes don't works at all for me on this computer, I had to set it to 2D instead of Standard for the 34.09 I have on the machine.
