    Full Screen

    Is there a way to have ORTS operate in a full screen mode. I thought it had one but I cannot figure out how to get to that. I am rough testing paths on the N. Montana route as I add mileposts after which I will release it. Since it will be operational, but bare bones on details, I guess the best category to use is "incomplete".

        I always make sure the "Windowed" option remains unchecked on opening screen!

          I am using version 1.5.1 and I do not see such an option on the opening screen and do not find it under options either?

            Under options, I noticed that the keyboard options said to use Alt+Enter and this worked. Using that again put it back into window mode. So I am okay now, but I still don't see any box to check or uncheck for this feature. I am running explore mode with a Milwaukee Road train to check the mileposts as I add them and to see if there are any undesirable visual effects that I need to fix before releasing the route as "incomplete". It will be incomplete only in that a detailer could spend months or years detailing it although it is mostly small forests and a lot of agricultural land. Many irrigation systems seen on Google Earth too. I have included one that worked on other routes. Parker, TX eh, my #1 son is a bi-vocational minister serving a church near Gainesville, TX and my #2 son is a lawyer in Houston. Both went to Baylor and never came back.

                  That is okay. I only use ORTS when I need the track viewer or I need to check a route. Southern Rwy was noted for wild cat strikes in the 1960s if nothing else and I got a lot of experience running the real thing, so I get bored real quick running any simulator, but I like to create routes. As I am way too old to likely finish all of them, I have started releasing them as bare bones routes so others, if interested, can fine detail them. And if worst occurs, my son-in-law has a list of what/how to upload etc. any of mind that exist then. But there is hope. I am only 86, my father left this life at 96 and was sharp as tack to his last breath by pneumonia.

                    After further examination, I found the Windows box under options/system. I guess that later version just moved it out in plain site.
