Hi

Here is the code to be able to resize the sketch and switch it to and from fullscreen while it is running: void setup(){ fullScreen(); surface.setResizable(false); surface.setAlwaysOnTop(true); } // Sets the x and y position of the screen aswell as the width and height void screen(int x, int y, int w, int h){ surface.setLocation(x, y); surface.setSize(w, h); } /…

> So as the title says, I want to create a button or something that I can click during a sketch to resize the window from fullscreen to different windowed resolutions like in a game. I’ve experimented with surface.setSize(), surface.setResizable(true) etc, but after a ton of googling I still can’t find a way to switch between windowed and fullscreen during the sketch. Is this a limitation of Processing or am I just missing something here? Any help is greatly appreciated
