SL is handling fullscreen aspect incorrectly, at least for my monitor's native aspect 16:10. The rightclick menu is distorted into an oval. And everywhere I go the people are slightly pudgy. I believe it's defaulting to 4:3.
I tried to switch to 16:9, just to test, and it didn't seem to have an effect. So I tried to mess with settings.xml adding : <FullScreenAspectRatio value="1.6"/>... and it had no effect.
So... two questions:
For those of you with 16:9 ... are you suffering from a case of the pudgies too? Or is it just because I have an oddball monitor running at 16:10 (specifically 1440x900 or 1680x1050)
And just for curiosity's sake... how come SL can handle aspect ratio automatically and on-the-fly when it's windowed? No matter what crazy dimensions you change the window to?
Thanks all...

Ok. I'm not sure if it's the new version, or if I did something different... but this is now fixed-ish. In case anyone else is having the same problem, here's the solution. If you're running on a 16:10 : 1. Make sure these are set <FullScreenAspectRatio value="1.6"/> <FullScreenAutoDetectAspectRatio value="FALSE"/> and "FullScreenHeight + Width" to your preferred resolution. 2. Log in and go to fullscreen. 3. "8:5" will be set as your aspect. But for some reason I have to choose it again manually, and press apply for the setting to actually take. :  hrug:: So do that... =) 4. I just re-logged in... you will have to do step 3 each time you log in, apparently. All your circles should be circles again. Woot!
