[Feature request] Borderless Fullscreen

[dinkc64]

Borderless windowed fullscreen mode is in!

The story:
I tried porting this over from fc a few years ago, but it broke triple buffering and got really low fps (like 30-40fps) regardless of setting.
It took quite a bit of adjusting to get working in fbneo, luckily I was able to figure it out last night!

best regards,

I have read this several times and I would like to know, what do you mean?

Borderless mode, also known as fullscreen windowed mode, is a hybrid of full screen and windowed mode. It runs the game in a window but without any borders, so it appears as if it's running in full screen.

it allows for quicker Alt+Tabbing than in Exclusive fullscreen, because the OS is still rendering behind the borderless window.

I could be wrong but i think it has already been requested, and that the answer back then was that it was hardly feasible with directx7 and directx9

[pokeshark]

requested this because FBNeo fork used in FightCade has borderless fullscreen with "DirectX9 Alt" blitter (but it's very much behind in emulation support).

if it's not a priority for the project, I understand.

I might be misremembering then

I'm almost done adding this, stay tuned!
