Video resolution settings being strange on Win8

[ramthelinefeed]

Apropos of me getting my hands on one of those Microsoft Surface Pro tablet things (running Windows 8 64bit), I finally tried out Seventh Sense (v1.12.7)

Am generally wowed and amazed at the detailed feature set and tight integration with the Project Aon editions!

Obviously, it's a "desktop application" as far as Windows 8 is concerned, and doesn't seem to be "touch enabled" so I'm using mouse (trackpad) and keyboard to use it rather than poking at the screen with my fat fingers , but that's not my issue:

When I change the Video Resolution settings, the top and bottom of the application is just going off the screen meaning I can't click on things.
Am not sure why, because the Surface Pro screen resolution is 1920x1080 (landscape, although you can rotate it portrait if you wish) - but I can't seem to get Seventh Sense to fit on the screen unless I leave it at the default (lowest) resolution. (I know, I know - so leave it at that then! lol)

Not sure what's going on?

Have you checked the "fullscreen" option? If you're doing a 1920X1080 window, it will then have a border "box" that is actually larger than 1920x1080, which would make it so the whole thing won't fit on the screen... if you want windowed mode, select a slighter lower resolution, or for a more precise fit, you can manually edit the "settings.txt" file in the "Seventh Sense" folder and put in values slightly lower than 1920 x 1080, so that windowed mode still pretty much fills the screen. (Though, selecting "fullscreen" might be easier...)

Does that help?

No, that's the thing - I tried "Fullscreen" too - and it's *way* cropped (like about the top and bottom thirds of the window). Something is getting rather confused between the application > graphics driver > display.
