This is a neat tool, but the forced fullscreen kills it for me - I don't trust apps to not bug out when you have to constantly alt+tab out of them.

This one never bugs out when you Alt-Tab. I guarantee it =D

You have plenty more experience with your own app than I do, so I'll take your word for it that it's stable. Still, I prefer not to risk the headache - never know how other apps might react to constant alt-tabbing into a fullscreen app.

Also, I can see the forced fullscreen being an issue for people with ultrawide monitors who prefer to nest windows side-by-side while working.

True indeed, I could work on something, windowed mode is tricky as I lose resolution and it messes with the pixel shaders etc, but I could have it so you can draw the full screen around as if it were a window in a way.

Oh, didn't realize that could cause rendering issues (I'm an amateur when it comes to art and graphics - most of my experience is with video editing).

Would a borderless fullscreen mode be a viable alternative?

Yes, I've done this before for another app and worked well enough. I'll try to add it in the next version but real busy so I'll put it on the to do list. Thank you
