This is an issue I have had since the 1.15 unstable builds. Sometimes, when starting Doomsday, I notice that the loading screen is off the center of the screen, which causes the entire game to be off-center. The only two ways I can get around this is to either press F11 twice (to turn off and then re-enable fullscreen) or to close and reopen Doomsday and hope the issue goes away.

If this is a video card/driver-related issue, I have an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660 Ti, with the latest driver on it.

If desktop and game resolution is a problem, I run my desktop at 1920x1080 and Doomsday at 1280x1024.

libgui: Window state management behavior improvements

Fixes the Windows-only problem where a fullscreen window would
randomly use the previous display resolution as its size after a mode
change.

I can definitely reproduce this. It is random in nature, so it most likely relates to the behavior of the Canvas during/after display mode switch. This might be fixable by adding some strategically positioned delays in the window/display mode setup.

I wouldn't rule out a bug in Qt 5 QGLWidget's fullscreen behavior, though, as this has worked reliably in Qt 4 (?).

I'm fairly certain this is now fixed, thanks to a slight delay before showing a window as fullscreen. Needs more extensive testing.

Tried this several times with the new build, looks fine on my end...
