Only problem was it didn't fill the screen but that was easily resolved by minimising and then maximising. ‌ ‌Wineskin is fabulous and have used it on other Applications and always seems to work perfectly as long as you follow the steps carefully.

Is this a known problem? Using OSX 10.13.2 High Sierra on MacBook Air. Thanks and thanks for creating SkyD on a MAC! ‌

There is sort of a work around .... if you select SkyDemon from the dock, somewhere on the screen you should see a small title bar saying "SkyDemon Plan" .... if you double click on this, it should restore the window .... see example: ‌ ‌‌‌

Is this a setting on my MacBook Pro that is wrong or a limitation of the emulation skin software? T‌his is not a moan, and I must thank the developer for all the hard work done so far.‌‌ Regards Hugh G-OIBM Commander 114
