Fullscreen in Lua

What are the constants for Lua for the last param? I tried just 1-5 (since the constants are just numbers I assume) and I can't seem to get fullscreen. I would get 2 values that wouldn't produce a border, which is one of the values, but they both were not taking up the fullscreen. Just what I defined as the resolution (say 1024x768) but my monitor is higher than that. I would expect it to convert my monitor to that resolution and then take up the entire screen. What am I missing?

Window.FullScreen should do it.

Using that I can see it's trying to make the fullscreen. It stays black and crashes shortly after.

I don't think it crashes, I think it switches out of that window.

function App:Start()

--Create a window

self.window = Window:Create("",0,0,1024,768,Window.FullScreen)

self.context = Context:Create(self.window)

self.world = World:Create()

local camera = Camera:Create()

camera:Move(0,0,-3)

local light = DirectionalLight:Create()

light:SetRotation(35,35,0)

 

self.model = Model:Box()

self.model:SetColor(0.0,0.0,1.0)

 

return true

end

 

function App:Loop()

 

if self.window:Closed() or self.window:KeyHit(Key.Escape) then return false end

 

self.model:Turn(0,Time:GetSpeed(),0)

 

Time:Update()

self.world:Update()

self.world:Render()

self.context:Sync(false)

 

return true

end

[Rick]

It does that also, but yeah it crashes as well. I get the "ProgramName as stopped working" msg after a bunch of stuff gets loaded (I can see via the dos window that gets created). Without Window.FullScreen everything works.

The Mac problem is caused by changes Apple made in OSX 10.8:

It's like building a house on quicksand sometimes.

 

Okay, fixed now, will upload a new build this weekend.
