Attempting to stretch a native windowed game to fill screen like borderless windowed screen; no success.
I am trying to fix an older title to run in Windowed Full screen (since the actual Resolution Changing Full screen Mode seems to not function and stays in it's aspect ratio.
I've searched high and low, but found nothing.
What I specifically need is something that removes Window Borders ("Undecorate") and something that forcefully stretches a 4:3 Window to an "Alt-Tabable" 16:9 Screen that fills up past various Menu Bars and such.
it depends on the game and how it is implemented.
sometimes it simply won't work - especially the stretching part - i have one or two games like that.
others only allow to go fullscreen through some config file setting or a command line option.
read the docs.
