Screen Resolution or shrink widow to take a break

Postby Edward64 on Mon Nov 30, 2020 2:50 pm

Is there a way to play in window mode with a almost max screen window so that during a round you can shrink the window to take a break and do something else? The max resolution I can get now is a bit more than 1/2 the screen. If I exit the window during a tournament it says it will withdraw me from the tournament.

Cheers,

Edward.

alt/enter key will take you to a window you can then shrink.
These are the "Good Ole Days", just wait and see.

If you're using a PC, hit the Windows key. It will instantly minimize Links.

i've always used BruMu's suggestion of Alt/Enter to e.g. check email during a round, but 'onya Rick ....... hitting the Windows Key works even better - completely minimising Links to the Taskbar ! EXCELLENTE !

Thanx for that guys. Sometimes somethings happens and I hate to have to just dump a tournament just because something happened.

Cheers,

Edward.

Thanx guys I tried both methods and they both work just fine. Sometimes the simple things are tough for a old non tec guy.

Cheers,

Edward.

You might want to set up your shot before you minimize. You may not be able to when you go back to links until you hit a shot. At least I've had that problem.

It's just been my experience, but I've never had a problem by hitting the Windows key. :D
