Why does my VR mirror run in a window?

[j9murphy]

When I start DCS in VR, the mirror on my monitor is in a window rather than the full screen vertical rectangle?  What causes that?

 

Using Pimax Crystal and 4k monitor.

Well, the VR picture is a square and not a standard 16:9 picture.
You can set it to full screen in the VR options, but then it´s heavily distorted/stretched to fill the screen.

it used to run in a vertical window that was not resizable or moveable.  Now its running in a window which can be moved around the monitor. no trying to make it full screen in the sense that it covers the left and right extent of the monitor, just that it covers the entire vertical extent and the width is proportional like it used to be.

Under the graphics options in DCS -> set the resolution to your monitors res

under the VR options -> VR mirror options -> check "Use DCS system resolution"
