I'd like to play in windowed mode but when I switch it to windows mode, it opens half on monitor '1' and half on monitor '2'.
When I try to drag it to monitor '1' I can only see the top of the version number on the bottom right or in other words it isn't showing the whole screen.
I do have two different resolutions; monitor '1' is 2560x1440 @ 125% recommended; monitor '2' is 1680x1050 @ 100% recommended.
Reason for using windowed mode is I'd like to click on my '2' monitor without shrinking the game on monitor '1'
Thanks in advanced

Re: Windowed Mode - Off Screen
Try reducing the "Resolution" down 1 or 2 places.

Re: Windowed Mode - Off Screen
Thanks Mark,
I tried but it didn't work.
I think I did find a solution though.
With the game open,
In Nvidia Control Panel open on the second monitor under the "Adjust desktop size and position" and clicking the "Size" tab I "Enabled desktop resizing" and hit "Apply" then in game hit "Windowed" but it was still off screen so I dragged the game back to my main monitor and took the check out of "Enable desktop resizing" and it stayed on the main monitor but in windowed mode.
I have an idea that it needed refreshed to allow the windowed screen to open properly.
Just a guess though. Anyway it worked.
The downside is I have to do this every time I open the game. O'Well lol
Thanks

Re: Windowed Mode - Off Screen
Your game resolution will need to be less than your screen resolution. For instance: Screen resolution at 1920 x 1080 (or higher). Make the game resolution 1600 x 900 in windowed mode. Now you can move the cursor from one monitor to the other without forcing the game to minimize. What I just shared with you is how I often play JNPG and Links2K3.RandyG wrote: ↑Mon Jul 01, 2019 2:54 pm Thanks Mark,

Also. Try using 125% scaling at 1920 x 1080 (or higher). The golf game will look even bigger in the window.

Thanks Lee
All has been figured out. I have a full screen in windows mode without the taskbar and boarders using the resize option from the Nvidia Control Panel.

Re: Windowed Mode - Off Screen
That's one way to do it. Be sure to backup that nvidia profile. Happy golfing!
