slingshot opens centered here. I've added an option upstream to have it full screen. And for the unlucky few where it isn't centered, I don't see any options in pygame.display to make it so. Marking as wont fix.

[Bug 358391] Re: Window games should start in the centre of the screen
My comments: definitely a window manager issue, although maybe some games could provide "hints" to the WM. The concept of "centered" doesn't even make sense in some environments (tiled awesome, ion2, ion3, etc.). If a game does try to position itself centrally, it would no doubt suffer from many bugs relating to what "centre" means in multi-screen environments, etc. -- Window games should start in the centre of the screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/358391 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Even aside from the issue of responsibility (game or WM), freedoom is merely a lump of world data and does not draw any windows at all. The window drawing is performed by an engine, most likely "prboom". ** Changed in: freedoom (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- Window games should start in the centre of the screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/358391 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
