Winecfg took it without complaint. (I > corrected it, of course.) I'm not sure what do you mean by "incorrect number". Maybe you talk about too low resolution so you cannot easily change it using winecfg anymore? > So I started playing with the numbers for real.

It does open up 3-4 pixels too high, but THAT doesn't really matter. > Diablo II LOD doesn't look or play any differently. *Application* can change size of virtual desktop. But *user* cannot change it because it is fixed. Fixed size is the standard property of any window, but it limits only the user not application itself. Theoretically it is possible to make it resizable by the user as any other typical window (that's similar to "Autofit Guest" feature in VMWare). This will solve problem with too small sizes of virtual desktop and some other problems. But as far as I know no one working on this currently. > It does open up 3-4 pixels too high Sorry, but I cannot reproduce. I measured virtual desktop size with kruler and it is exactly of requested size. I tried different settings and it always worked as it should. > It's such a useful feature, I'm surprised I couldn't find any documentation > about it, unless I didn't understand what I did find. There is very little to document. You can change virtual desktop size by using winecfg or by editing registry files directly. You can enable virtual desktop for all applications in current WINE prefix or only for one application, for example: wine explorer /desktop=My_desktop,800x600 program.exe If you think that documentation is bad then you can help to improve it. Thanks. But what about your GNOME-related problem? Do you still have it? If yes, can you describe step-by-step how someone else can reproduce it? For example, I have GNOME installed but I'm not sure how to reproduce your problem in GNOME. _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
