Citra fullscreen?

[Lukeyboy67]

Hi, I'm using the 3DS emulator Citra. Does eanyone know the command line to force fullscreen please? ta

You can paste this AHK into the Autohotkey tab in Launchbox manage emulators for your Citra. It will send F11 after launch to send Citra to fullscreen.

SetTitleMatchMode, 2
 WinWaitActive, Citra
 Send {f11}

[Lukeyboy67]

Sorted! cheers m8

[Retro808]

 Any time!

Cool good solution, you can also set fullscreen to true in the citra ini.

Here's the full AHK script I have for Citra, loads it fullscreen, moves the cursor if it's showing and sets the Escape key to close it out properly.

Sleep, 3000
SetKeyDelay, -1, 110
Send {F11}
Return

Sleep, 3000
SetKeyDelay, -1, 110
MouseMove, 0, 2160, 0, R

$Esc::
{
    Process, Close, {{{StartupEXE}}}
}

Thanks a lot for this script Lordmonkus! Exactly what I needed.

As I side note this has got to be the most helpful forum I've been on in a long time. ?

These hide mouse AHK commands don't seem to hide or move the mouse at all on my screen. Anybody know what could be wrong? Literally copy pasted whats up above.

run citra-qt.exe, set checkmark on menu View->Fullscreen, Then set menu View->Screen layout->Large screen. and as of LB 9.2 you also don't need any ahk script lines for hiding the mouse cursor either, since you can set that in the LB emulator settings for Citra.

does someone have another tip because it will not work for me. every time I start it it goes fullscreen but with the lowest graphic resolution and display settings.

[TheNewClassics]

Does the exit citra script still work for everyone? After recent updates to both citra and LB, it's not closing properly for me.

[Retro808]

@TheNewClassics I responded in the AHK thread. See if that will help.

Hi ! Each time i open a game with citra via launchbox, it open the cmd command ! 

and When i copy this in hotkey  in emulator citra, there it put cittra AND CMD command in fullscreen 

do you know how to get off the cmd command ?

[Peichan2]

Anyone can help ?

I finally got this running, using tips in this thread, and modifying the hotkeyscript:

1) Run citra-qt.exe (also make sure the emulator path is pointing to this in LaunchBox)
2) Set a checkmark on menu View->Fullscreen
3) Set menu View->Screen layout->Large screen
4) Enter the following 'RunningAutoHotKey Script' in CItra's emulator config in Launchbox:

Sleep, 1000
SetKeyDelay, -1, 110
Send {F11}
Return

5) To create settings to smoothly exit Citra back to LaunchBox:
In Launchbox, tools>options>Game Controllers>Mappings - assign 'Exit Game' to something like the START and SELECT button at the same time (Button 7 + Button 8).

Launch a game from Launchbox, and it should load full-screen in CItra with no bars.  Then press/hold START and SELECT   and it should exit Citra and return you to Launchbox.

LordMonkus' script worked for me. I removed the middle part though as Citra now has an option to hide mouse cursor on inactivity in its settings. I'm using the up-to-date build of Citra and LB at the time of this post.

This is my exact problem @Peichan2 - did you manage to solve it?

Apologies on rezing an old thread but it seems this problem still exists.

[Spottyfriend]

Okay I found that setting the emulator as NOT citra.exe but instead the citra-qt.exe and changing the settings in the config file (C:\Users\[your username]\AppData\Roaming\Citra\config) worked.
