Title: widescreen display detection
Post by: amoeba on November 18, 2004, 09:38:46
Is there any easy was to detect if the pc your application is running on is widescreen, and therefore use an appropriate display?

Because using a normal display on a widescreen laptop seems to error - it doesnt show the fullscreen application when you switch it to fullscreen(its fine when windowed).

Works fine on my inspiron... however that is typically standard modes like 800*600 - haven't actutally tried the native mode (1680 * 1050).

Weird, just tried it again and it was fine. Maybe I have some dodgy drivers....
