Summary: cannot enable/disable "emulate a virtual desktop"
setting per application
Product: Wine
Version: 0.9.56.
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: P2
Component: -unknown
AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
ReportedBy: erpo41 at gmail.com
For some applications, such as StarCraft, it is necessary to enable the
"Emulate a virtual desktop" setting. If this setting is not enabled, the
application will not run.
For other applications, such as the UltraVNC viewer, it is convenient to
disable the "Emulate a virtual desktop" setting. If this setting is not
disabled, the application is cumbersome to use.
Running winecfg to switch this option on or off before launching each
application is a real drag.
One solution to this problem would be to allow users to set the "Emulate a
virtual desktop" preference on a per-application basis. A comment in Bug #
11078 makes it clear that this would be difficult or complicated to implement.
However, the problem still needs to be solved in some way.
