Question by unifiedJed · Jul 28, 2017 at 12:34 AM · editorgamewindowsfullscreen

How do I get true full screen (no gray at the top) in my game tab?

I'm looking to have my game window take up absolutely the whole screen on a second window. ANYTHING that is not black I would like removed (see image), I just haven't found how to do it yet.alt text

You have to build the game.

That will always show in the editor / game Engine even in full screen.

  • you'll have to specify the full screen settings when you build the game in the Build options **

I should have been a little clearer, my goal is to access the edit mode still. It's looking like that can't be done, but thank you!

Ah.

I would say this, it's still not going to get rid of the game boarder, but it will slim it down a lot.

If you use a desktop, or even a laptop, try Dual screening. ( 2 monitors ) 1 for editor and one for gameplay.

Drag the game tab to one monitor, and keep the gameEngine ( Editor ) in the other.

if you're looking to share the same full screen window, drag the game window out. ( this will make an independent popup window)

then drag the Editor window into the game popup window until it split screens.

then maximize the window. via the icon, not the " $$anonymous$$aximize on play " button.

That is what he is doing. He wants to get rid of the top menu. Sorry, but I never done it before and i don't think it is possible to remove that bar unless you just zoom in on the monitor.
