fullscreenresolution=1280x1024 (monitor native)
output=overlay
scaler=normal2x
aspect=true
This combination work perfectly (except text modes are 8:5), but with one exception - no full-screen scaling for hi/true color modes.
Yes, output=ddraw scale everything, but it work several times slower. So I prefer overlay if possible.

So, the question is - no highcolor full-screen scaling with output=overlay is the bug or the feature? 😀
Tnx.

It's my general impression that DosBox does not scale more than the specified scaler when in fullscreen -- only by setting scale to none is it possible to get fullscreen scaling. I haven't seen any problems with particular modes though.
