            Bug ID: 48565
           Summary: When entering fullscreen at lower resolution than the
                    desktop, scrollable virtual desktop is accessible
           Product: Wine
           Version: 5.0
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: wine-bugs at winehq.org
          Reporter: dmayr.dev at gmail.com
      Distribution: ---

I tried playing a DirectX-based game, e.g. GTAIV, using the emulated virtual
desktop at 800x600 (my desktop's native resolution is 1440x900).

But ever since I changed back to playing the game fullscreen at 800x600
*without the virtual desktop*, the following happens:

- The game starts at the desired lower resolution
- Part of my desktop environment's panel is visible within the game's viewport,
at that same lower resolution
- If I move the mouse far enough, I realize that there's an active 1440x900
virtual desktop, showing me a lo-res 800x600 window
- I can scroll around the edges of this virtual desktop, thus Wine losing the
captured mouse cursor
- When playing, this moves the centered game view past the center of the
screen, losing focus; this prevents the mouse cursor's movements to be confined
within the fullscreen window, which is supposed to be the an immovable
viewport.

I haven't found a way to revert back from having tried the virtual desktop
option, as the change has been somehow been made permanent.
