wxlauncher - issue #87

Resolution drop down box includes invalid resolution options on OS X Lion


Posted on Jun 8, 2012 by Grumpy Bear

What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Open wxLauncher on OS X Lion 2. Switch to or create a profile with valid root folder and FSO executable 3. Switch to Basic Settings page if not already there 4. Examine Resolution drop down box

What is the expected output? What do you see instead? Expected output is only the resolutions listed in OS X's System Preferences. Instead there are resolutions not listed there, such as 640x480 and 840x524.

A workaround is to simply not select any of the additional resolutions.

The problem is almost certainly because the version of SDL in use is not compatible with Lion. SDL is probably just reporting a generic list of resolutions. I'll have to look for a version of SDL that is compatible with Lion.
