           Summary: virtual desktop window should be fullscreen when it's as
                    big as the screen
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.3
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: winex11.drv
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: madewokherd at gmail.com


Wine's virtual desktop window should set itself to fullscreen mode when its
size matches the screen size.

Having it as normal window in this case is not useful.

But there are some cases where a fullscreen virtual desktop window would be
useful:
* A fullscreen game has a menu with a small screen size but allows the user to
set the in-game screen size. If the in-game screen size is the same as the X
desktop, this allows for the menu being windowed while the game itself is
fullscreen.
* A fullscreen game kills itself if other programs are activated while it is
running.
* Some bug prevents a fullscreen game from running outside a virutal desktop.

(and yes, all three of these are Worms Armageddon)
