Custom Window Size Gone!

Recently, the option to have a custom window size has disappered.

I used to be able to scale the width of my WoW window, I now have to use one of a preselected window sizes/resolutions, which totally sucks, as there’s nothing that fits my monitor anywhere near quite right when wanting to have WoW play in widescreen with a browsing window on the side.

Any thoughts/suggestions on how to get this back?

Howdy!

For PC / WOTLK you should be able to log into your character. Press “Esc” → Change Display mode to Windowed. Change your Window size to your full-scale resolution so it picks up your aspect ratio. Then you should be able to place your mouse over the bottom right of the window and drag it to adjust the adjust to your liking. If you are trying to change the aspect ratio you would need to change the resolution to another option like 1920x1080.

Thank you.

Hey Zuvykree,

Thanks for the quick response, however you’ve outlined exactly what my issue is. I only have the option of picking the preset aspect ratios. Up until ~1 month ago I was able to have a custom aspect ratio, and resize my window as I saw fit.

I was able to have WoW Classic running in windowed mode on something close to 21:9, and now I neither have that option in windowed mode, or the ability to custom resize the game window to an aspect ratio similar to that size.

Resolutions available:

5120x1440
3840×1080
3520×990
3200×900
2560×1440
2560×1080 DOES NOT EXIST
2560×720
1920×1200

Any further thoughts or suggestions on the matter?
