4:3 fullscreen ratio on a widescreen monitor

Welcome to our brand new Clickteam Community Hub! We hope you will enjoy using the new features, which we will be further expanding in the coming months.

A few features including Passport are unavailable initially whilst we monitor stability of the new platform, we hope to bring these online very soon. Small issues will crop up following the import from our old system, including some message formatting, translation accuracy and other things.

Thank you for your patience whilst we've worked on this and we look forward to more exciting community developments soon!

  • I used the search tool and found some others with this problem, but no answers:

    I am using HWA and would like my game (640x480 resolution) to run in fullscreen without stretching on my wide-screen monitor. Is this impossible to do?

  • It will only stretch if your widescreen monitor is crap...

    EDIT: An option was added in one of the MMF updates as a workaround:

    Keep screen ratio
    In full screen mode, the resolution mode of the computer will change to match as best as possible both the size of the window and the width/height ratio of the current screen. This option avoids your application window to get distorted on wide screens.

  • I get the exact same results with or without Keep Screen Ratio :(

    It's alright though, it looks like using fullscreen messes with my Subapp windows anyway.

  • Look in the monitor settings, it probably has a "keep aspect ratio" option. Unfortunately, most monitors seem to default to stretch-o mode. Widescreen monitors have become the norm, so you might want to consider using a widescreen resolution to avoid this issue.
