# Objective
- #16883
- Improve the default behaviour of the exclusive fullscreen API.
## Solution
This PR changes the exclusive fullscreen window mode to require the type
`WindowMode::Fullscreen(MonitorSelection, VideoModeSelection)` and
removes `WindowMode::SizedFullscreen`. This API somewhat intentionally
more closely resembles Winit 0.31's upcoming fullscreen and video mode
API.
The new VideoModeSelection enum is specified as follows:
```rust
pub enum VideoModeSelection {
/// Uses the video mode that the monitor is already in.
Current,
/// Uses a given [`crate::monitor::VideoMode`]. A list of video modes supported by the monitor
/// is supplied by [`crate::monitor::Monitor::video_modes`].
Specific(VideoMode),
}
```
### Changing default behaviour
This might be contentious because it removes the previous behaviour of
`WindowMode::Fullscreen` which selected the highest resolution possible.
While the previous behaviour would be quite easy to re-implement as
additional options, or as an impl method on Monitor, I would argue that
this isn't an implementation that should be encouraged.
From the perspective of a Windows user, I prefer what the majority of
modern games do when entering fullscreen which is to preserve the OS's
current resolution settings, which allows exclusive fullscreen to be
entered faster, and to only have it change if I manually select it in
either the options of the game or the OS. The highest resolution
available is not necessarily what the user prefers.
I am open to changing this if I have just missed a good use case for it.
Likewise, the only functionality that `WindowMode::SizedFullscreen`
provided was that it selected the resolution closest to the current size
of the window so it was removed since this behaviour can be replicated
via the new `VideoModeSelection::Specific` if necessary.
## Out of scope
WindowResolution and scale factor act strangely in exclusive fullscreen,
this PR doesn't address it or regress it.
## Testing
- Tested on Windows 11 and macOS 12.7
- Linux untested
## Migration Guide
`WindowMode::SizedFullscreen(MonitorSelection)` and
`WindowMode::Fullscreen(MonitorSelection)` has become
`WindowMode::Fullscreen(MonitorSelection, VideoModeSelection)`.
Previously, the VideoMode was selected based on the closest resolution
to the current window size for SizedFullscreen and the largest
resolution for Fullscreen. It is possible to replicate that behaviour by
searching `Monitor::video_modes` and selecting it with
`VideoModeSelection::Specific(VideoMode)` but it is recommended to use
`VideoModeSelection::Current` as the default video mode when entering
fullscreen.
