[UI] Remove fullscreen resolution UI. (PR #6196 from Helios747) NO NO NOOOO!!!

[Helios]

in borderless modes you just get whatever your display is set to. I'm not aware that we change the host resolution on core start when in borderless mode.

No.

Ah, well then that's one argument down. I still have more!

DrHouse64, my issue is not performance wise, is a problem I have had with DPI and 4K on windows for the longest.

anyway, I did a little more digging around the net, and I found a very delicious little tidbit that for the most part has solve my problem! with the dolphin full screen, microscopic letters, other emus... I think that with a little work and tinkering on my PC... it fixes everything! For anyone else that has the DPI issues with older programs that don't support high DPI, check this out! I now have everything in 4K... and I am content and in love! (I hope is OK to leave a link here) Hope it helps some people.
Toodles!

I know right, I"m just pointing out another use of that option.

I already voiced my displeasure with this change on the PR, may as well voice it here. I plan on keeping my own fork with the reverted changes. I just hope you guys don't end up doing more changes to the UI files to make keeping the old restored file a major PITA.

Dumbing things down and removing features is never smart, but that's just my opinion.

Also, you get no benefit unless you use D3D and exclusive fullscreen. Which the user will have no way of knowing

How trivial upscaling is will surely depend on the GPU; any adverse effect would generally be more noticeable on older, lower-end ones, especially with slower or shared VRAM (e.g. laptop with integrated graphics and single-channel shared RAM).

The full-screen resolution setting also applies to OpenGL and Vulkan backends (and the software renderer).

I see you two found this thread. Well, the original poster had their issue resolved, and there's no reason for you two to move your complaints here, so I'm just going to close this.

Closed!
