Free type or extra aspect ratio

Ian · 20 July 2023, 00:15

Having just brought a nice new Samsung G9 OLED 49 inch ultra wide for "work", would it be possible to add 32:9 to the list of available aspect ratios or the option to put whatever I want in there?

Not sure if it will have much effect, but none of the available options seem to fit with what I've got.

Hmm.. I have had few 32:9 Samsung G9 models for a few years (and few weeks ago got that OLED version!) and I have never tried to use full-window until now.

Right, it looks like aspect ratio is not correct, "automatic" should be correct even if specific ratio is not listed.

Sweet, full screen mode is good actually.

Out of interest what resolution do you use for windowed? I've tried 1844 x 1104

I have a attached a range of windowed mode shots, the last one fills a nice amount of the screen, but I'm not sure why it has to be so wide? Aspect ratio is set to auto in all these shots.

I am probably doing something wrong, as I've missed all the introduction of auto integer mode.

In windowed mode I usually use normal integer scale mode (not auto) and adjust window size to have good enough fit, without aspect ratio correction. I normally want integer pixel mapping (need to see each pixel perfectly).
