    Full Screen View Fails

    Having only run OR for two weeks.... first few days full screen worked fine. Nothing
    was changed and now when switching to full screen it loads but then quickly crashes
    back to desktop. Any help? Any known issues....

    Anything generated in the log file, usually an error at the end of the file. If you have a full log, zip and attach it here.
    Beer is not a matter of life or death, it is much more serious than that.

        I usually start OR in regular screen and then while train is in motion try to switch to full screen using the OR suggested key stroke
        of "Alt + Enter".

          "Regular" ????? I thought regular was Full Screen
          What happens when you start with "Windowed" unchecked on the startup screen and then use Alt-Enter?

          FYI Mine works either way. X2388 ver

            Tried unchecking "windowed" in the setup screen.... same effect. Since I just downloaded it 2 weeks ago I assume I have the latest
            version.

                I'm at X2194 which seems strange that it would be a lower number since I got it direct from OR website and not a 3rd party link. I guess
                I would have to sign up for Experimentals..... am concerned about ghosting displays of my previously placed signals designed by Joseph Hovet... JJH.... any comments appreciated. Thanks for the feedback.

                    2194 is very old. The latest experimental from Otto's link was 2378 and the latest bleeding edge is 2388.
