But Desktop resolution is what is used to support modern non-CRT screens. Desktop resolution reads your screen mode and fits to that.

Thank you for your reply, but unless I am having a stroke (possible), 1920x1080 is 16:9 resolution, widescreen, the "FullHD" resolution.
So...I am confused.
Desktop resolution is cool, but I tend to want to have the game open in a window and have other windows open at the same time, for example YouTube. My monitor has a resolution of 2560x1440 so having the game at 1920x1080 works really well for me. If there is no way, I understand as this isn't a resolution even considered when the game was being made, but I thought to ask anyway in case someone has an idea.
Thanks.
