Snes9x doesn't hide the taskbar when going to fullscreen
Snes9x doesn't hide the taskbar when going to fullscreen
Rate this one as a minor annoyance, but is there some way I can edit the configuration file so that Snes9x will hide the taskbar when I go to fullscreen? If I right-click on the "Snes9x" tab in the taskbar, it hides it, but I'd really be interested if there's a way to automate this process.
I'm running Snes9x v1.53 in Windows XP, by the way.

Re: Snes9x doesn't hide the taskbar when going to fullscreen
That is odd behavior; I have never had that. I assume you're talking the bar that contains the list of programs you currently have running, a clock, and the start button? I just to make sure.

Re: Snes9x doesn't hide the taskbar when going to fullscreen
i run into that bug occasionally. as you've seen, switching out of and back into Snes9x resolves it.
however, occurrence is inconsistent.

Probably should forward this to OV2?

Re: Snes9x doesn't hide the taskbar when going to fullscreen
he reads the forums, he'll see it. there's no reason to escalate.
a bug report with no consistent way to reproduce isn't terribly useful to a developer.
although question for OP - what make if graphics adapter are you running (AMD/ATI, nVIDIA, Intel, other)?

It's an nVidia GeForce 7300 LE.

Re: Snes9x doesn't hide the taskbar when going to fullscreen
ok, so it's not a driver-specific thing (my primary machine is using a Radeon HD6850).

Maybe it has to do with when he is switching to different monitor resolutions when going in/out of fullscreen?

Re: Snes9x doesn't hide the taskbar when going to fullscreen
no - i run fullscreen at my desktop resolution/depth/timings, there's no switch.
Re: Snes9x doesn't hide the taskbar when going to fullscreen
odditude is correct; I'm running the emulator in my monitor's native resolution, so there's no switching.

Re: Snes9x doesn't hide the taskbar when going to fullscreen
I get the same issue when switching to fullscreen. Perhaps its caused by the way SNES9x does fullscreen but I don't have a clue.
Re: Snes9x doesn't hide the taskbar when going to fullscreen
Probably caused by Windows scale function. Try to lower it to default 100% instead of 125/150%. This is a bug in Windows since at least a decade.
If this won't help your issue... well... I don't know.

Re: Snes9x doesn't hide the taskbar when going to fullscreen
the issue happens at the standard 100% as well. where did that guess come from?reery wrote:Probably caused by Windows scale function. Try to lower it to default 100% instead of 125/150%. This is a bug in Windows since at least a decade.
