do not resize the desktop in any way (on Linux this tends to kill secondary monitors, and shuffle icons and windows around to fit the small space, both are very annoying).My own experience suggests the desired behavior in 99% of cases on Linux is the following:

Meaning to make patch only apply to specific games rather thanįinally, another wacky “solution” is to start games in a separate X To intercept Alt-Enter and Alt-g requests as above. One solution I’d found, originally for NWN, was to patch SDL itself However many do at least support Alt-Return or Alt-Enter to toggleīetween fullscreen and windowed (and I’d use this over Alt-Tab anyway)Īnd also Alt-g to enable and disable the input grab but usually only Games to support Alt-Tab themselves in their own input routines. Unfortunately, Alt-Tab wasn’t set as a standard by SDL leaving the SDL_WM_GrabInput() to lock the mouse to the window, which is desirable,īut which then prevents the window managers from registering Alt-Tab The cause is that the game grabs all mouse and keyboard input with Location: off the west coast of northern Sumatra
