Fullscreen works fine for me, running Win7 on three monitors all 1920x1080.

AriaB: all of your monitors are of the same size, the submitter has them different.

I also see it tries to span both monitors, like on the photo I attached.

While KiloByte's complaint may be a duplicate of 0003668, that is not the same as the submitter's problem because it sounds like they *want* it to span both screens, but it throws an error instead. Changing relationship from "Duplicate" to "Related".

Actually, as I read it, the submitter doesn't even want that, just regular fullscreen. Which fails because the first monitor is not as tall as the second, and Crawl looks at the total size reported by the operating system, which is a bounding rectangle for all screens.

Anyway, this should be fixed with the SDL2 port, since "fullscreen" uses just one screen. Thanks!
