There currently are 5 methods to achieve full-screen

Method 1

step 1: open powder toy.


step 2: click on the thermometer icon on the bottom of the window,and check the box that says "Fullscreen". You can also check "Large Window" to have the window be twice as large, but not completely fullscreen.


step 3: click "ok".


(may not work on earlier versions)

When opening the shortcut, the game will start in full-screen.

Method 4

Step 1: Create a shortcut of Powder.exe or Powder-legacy.exe .


Step 2: Right click the shortcut and press "properties".


Step 3: Press "Combatibility", and then check "Run in 640 x 480 screen resolution".


Method 5

Step 1: Right click somewhere on the desktop.


Step 2: Press "Screen Resolution".


Step 3: Set the slider all the way down to 640*480.

Now when starting the game, it will appear to be fullscreen. In order to get your normal screen resolution back, do the same steps, but drag the slider back to it's maximum.


Either of these methods will get you powder toy window full screen one way or another, just try the one that works best for you.
