Window Size

    I have just recently upgraded to Windows 10 and when I went onto TPT the screen was all stretched from edge to edge horizontally. It really makes the game look weird as before I upgraded, there would be a black border around the screen (I used fullscreen mode). Is there anyway to fix this or not? (I have also tried console commands but they didn't work either).

    I have the same issue. I tried restarting my computer, but it still wouldn't fix itself. Would love some feedback on this. I think its because I exited through the window instead of through powdertoy, and it got stuck in this fullscreen mode. I tried going back in and turning fullscreen off too, but that didnt work either.

    EDIT:

    All I did was go into my display settings and go back to reccomended, and it fixed itself.

    Not sure. I tested it on a windows 10 computer and I still get the black edges. It may depend on multiple factors including screen size / OS.

    Fullscreen is handled by the graphics library we use. It changes your screen resolution to whatever works best. It's supposed to change it back when you exit, maybe it wouldn't if TPT crashes or if you exit using some other nonstandard method.

    I usually use double screen size mode, never fullscreen.
