Hi!

I'm having some troubles with game screen and my monitor. I'm an old GML programmer, but I didn't had this problem till Game Maker Studio 2.

The two or three first times I run a game, everything looks good (picture A). The problem is that, someday, all projects start to stay off screen when I run them (even if I didn't touch anything), like picture B and C.

* I tried diferent monitor resolutions (800x600, 1024x768, 1152x864, 1280x960, 1280x1024) and all of them give me the same problem.

* I tried diferent resolutions for the game and nothing happens.

* I tried a scaling system that works, but the problem is still there.

* I tried to use build/clean and display_reset but is doesn't help.


Is that a problem of my monitor? When I use display_get_width and display_get_height, it return correct values.


Note: if I use show_message, when I return to the game, the screen gets scaled correctly (unplayable because of screen distortions, but scaled correctly).


Thank you!
