I know this might not entirely be dosbox's fault but since it only happens when I use it I will have to guess. Sometimes when I run games the screen is not centered and sometimes menus etc will get cut off and force me to use my monitors controls to resize the screen. I wouldn't mind it....but it happens quite often. I need some way for it to quit fiddling with my monitor settings...after all my monitor is quite good at remembering how I have resized different resolutions.

Should mostly be using 640x400 mode. That's one of my adjusted modes.

whenever something like that happens make a screenshot and check it's resolution.

My monitor allows me to check the rez/timing by the press of a button 😜 It mostly happens in the 720 resoltion used in sierra games. Could it be because my monitor doesn't think to remember such an odd number resolution?
