pSX 1.10 - Window resizing bug

[samiam]

I'm not sure if this problem exists in earlier versions of the emulator, but in pSX 1.10 I have found this: If you first maximize the emulator without going to full-screen, then go full screen, then switch out of full screen, you can no longer "restore down" to the small window size from the maximized window.

pSX probably doesn't keep track of the maximized state, and only restores window size directly. It's been like that

Indeed. Look at the window size button when you do this. When you start the emulator, it's a square - the window size is 'restored' i.e. it can still be maximised. Now click the button to maximise the window; it changes to two squares, indicating that it is now maximised and can be restored (i.e. returned to the previous size). Now go full screen and then return to windowed mode. Look at the button. It will indicate a restored window, not a maximised one, although it's full size. If you click the button now, you'll just be maximising it, anyway.

What's happening, I think, is that it always returns from full screen to windowed mode in 'restored' mode, i.e. not maximised, but remembers the last windowed size - which was maximised.

Yep. It's exactly the same thing that happens with pSX Frontend 1.08. When you close the frontend in maximized state, you'll notice that the next time you open it, it's not maximized, but the window spans the full screen. It happens because I save the window size only, don't bother to check if the window is maximized, and simply restore the size of the window upon next opening. That's why I can almost say with certainty why it's happening (I fixed the behavior for the frontend in 1.09, though that's off topic ).
