Hi there...

I'm running DosBox with the Dapplegrey-frontend on OSX 10.5 ...
my monitors nromal resolution is 1680x1050....

and now my question:
I want to play DOS-games fullscreen... that works fine -- BUT the games are stretched so they fill up the whole screen... and therefore, all the graphics are looking wider as they should.

is there a way to get "black bars" on the left and right to get the correct ratio - while keeping it filling up the screen from top to bottom?

thanks for your help and sorry for my bad english 🙁

PS: On my mac, i just could not find the config file - on the pc it was obvious 🙁

Is it located in your "yourname/Library/Preferences"?
If not, maybe in the installed DOSBox folder.
