Description Leniad 2007-07-29 13:03:23 UTC 
Hello!
I'm leniad programmer of DSP emulator. I'm using SDL for video, keyboard and joystick tasks.
Now I'm ussing 'SDL_WINDOWID' to set the video to a child window, and 'windib' as defalut, and everithing is OK.
But when I try to set full screen, everithing looks wrong. When I go back to a window screen, everithing looks right again.
You can test this in my emulator, Spectrum driver and pressing F6. Source and binary are available.
Thank you!

I don't know that this is possible to fix for SDL 1.2.  Once fullscreen support is implemented in SDL 1.3, please give it a try there.  The video system has been completely rewritten to make it easier to do this sort of thing in 1.3.
