Fullscreen Bug - NanoParticles - 08-29-2015
I've got my laptop connected to another display, and its mirroring what I have on the first display. It doesn't show on the second display on startup, only the first display, but when I exit fullscreen it just changes the size of the game UI, not exiting out fullscreen on the first display, but on the second display it shows that its out of fullscreen. I close out of the game referring to the second display, but it still shows that I'm in the game on the first display. In order for me to get back to my desktop on the first display, I would need to completely close out dolphin.
Is there a fix where all my games I got I wouldn't need to do this?

Um, this is very poorly written, and kind of confusing. If you are mirroring your main display to another display, it should behave like a single monitor and there should be no issues? And if you want different things on different monitors, you should extend the display instead of mirror them? Unless I'm mistaken, it's hard for me to understand what you mean...

When you mirror the display on windows, some things are still displayed only on one of the screens. It should be exclusive fullscreen that works that way. Borderless fullscreen should be displayed on both screens.
So to fix the 1st problem, try borderless fullscreen. But i don't understand the second problem.

I was giving a detailed walkthrough of the single problem. If I extended the display, It would only do fullscreen on the display that the main window its on.
By mirroring the display, I can kick back, relax, and have a sip of water while playing my games on dolphin.
