Full screen mode is broken at 3840x2160

I'm running at 3840x2160 and although cannon ball works perfectly in a window, it's totally non functional for full screen mode. When I set it to full screen, it blows up 25% of the screen to full screen with the rest of the screen cut off at my monitor's borders. This makes it impossible to play the game full screen.

Do you have any High-DPI / retina setup? Are you using SDL1 or SDL2? Also, operating system?

This issue is fixed by changing the 'High DPI Settings' of cannonball.exe
Properties > Compatibility Pane
Hi DPI Override
Changing this setting solves the scaling issue, and let's you play the game in native 4K.

Can anyone confirm whether this is still an issue on the latest SDL2 based build? I don't have a 4k monitor, but I would be interested to know.

It doesn't seem to be an issue anymore on my setup.

OK great. Must have been a result of SDL 1 being ancient technology. I'll close this for now. Thank you!
