Fullscreen QMainWindow, QGLWidget issue on OSX

But a main window already has a layout.

Which of the main window elements do you currently need?
toolbars? statusbar?

None, just a QGLWidget added to the main window.

Then the question becomes: why use a QMainWindow at all?
Why not just have the GL widget as the window itself?

It's based on the Qt Widgets Application template in the Qt Creator.

Ok, so if I understand you correctly, there is no reason to use the QMainWindow.

In which case just remove it and use your widget as the window.

Thanks, just wonder if there is a way to make QGLWidget have a different framebuffer size from its actual size?

[anda_skoa]

No idea sorry.

Btw, I think the more current OpenGL widget is QOpenGLWidget, QGLWidget is deprecated

Thanks.

My final solution is to scale the offscreen buffer to fill the widget myself.
